    Head woes on 2.4Td AGAIN!!

    The water pump failed on my 2.4, taking the new head fitted 18 months ago with it.

    The head is cracked between the valves on pistons 1 and 2, but there is a lot of pitting on the head above those pistons, i presume the gasket has been leaking for sometime but it has not been overheating or losing any water

    Any ideas and how can i stop having to buy heads every 18 months, this will be the second i have bought in two years.

    Make sure you buy the upgraded design head, get it fitted by someone who knows what they're doing (mine went twice because a fcukwit fitted the first replacement), keep your cooling system in good working order and pray to god.

      By the way someone has a 2.4 head for sale on ebay that may or may not be the upgraded design but can't be sure. It has no buy it now or reserve so could work out cheap.

      Using my extraordinary spy skills, I think I might know who the seller is.....

          Looks like a scammer to me. Make sure he's not in Eastern Europe, or Basingstoke...

              Change the water pump and head gasket every 17 months.
