Cylinder head broken

If your cylinder head is broken, you need to replace it as soon as possible. A defective cylinder head can lead to serious engine damage. Due to overheating, the part can wear out. The heat causes the cylinder head to warp, which can be repaired by having it skimmed. Another common problem is leakage of engine oil or coolant. These fluids are essential for the engine to run smoothly and stay cool. A defect in the cylinder head can cause these fluids to leak. This defect can be identified by a strange grinding noise or the engine overheating. Other symptoms to watch out for are smoke from the engine and loss of power. Do you recognise any of these symptoms? Then check the part and replace it if necessary.

Replacing the cylinder head

You need to replace the cylinder head if it's broken. A defective cylinder head can lead to irreparable engine damage. Note that this is a very difficult job, which you can only carry out yourself if you have sufficient technical knowledge and experience.

When replacing the cylinder head, the biggest challenge is accessing the part. Before replacement, you first need to drain the coolant and remove surrounding components such as the throttle body, power steering system, and the air filter. Then, unscrew the inlet manifold and exhaust manifold and dismantle the rocker cover. You may also need to remove the tappets. You should now be able to unscrew the cylinder head and remove it from the car. When installing the new cylinder head, also use a new cylinder head gasket.
