ive heard that there must have been another fault which stalled engine and stripped teeth, but didnt sound anythin sinister when it did stop? Cant find reciept for a water pump so im guessing it might be plastic impellored original? Could that stall it or would that just disintergrate?

It could stall it if it broke up yes.

Right so, tested on cylinder 1 & 2 and valves bent in both.. new head needed.

Pics of cambelt at bottom of post, was original belt and broke at 86000 miles, change yours if you havent already way before this, the teeth have literally been stripped off, and going EVERYWHERE round the belt.

So just found this new cylinder head on ebay, first off, will it fit, secondly, should i be concerned about the ''just weaker pressure on 4 inlet valves ''?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-Passat-B5-96-00-1-8T-20V-99-CYLINDER-HEAD-/260725365939?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3cb4715cb3

Please help us out guys, miss my car soo bad  :sad:

I wouldnt buy one off ebay unless they close to you and you can view.. thing is they could have bent valves and stuff and not list them..

contact someone like purelyVAG he might be able to get you one for a decent price..

I have already with no reply, it says weaker pressure on 4 but just needs cleaning? I can get this sonic washed, just need to know if its going to be an issue. Time is of the essense unfortunately :sad:

Call him on 07923222024 Jordy...

I personally wouldnt go for that one with 4 inlet valve being weak..
