Description
Can You Repair a Cracked Cylinder Head?
To DIY or not to DIY?
It can be tempting to just buy the spare parts needed for the repair and attempt to replace or repair the head yourself, but without the proper training you very well may miss cracks in more damaging places, difficult to see with the naked eye. Professional mechanics also have access to more sophisticated methods for testing the damage a head has suffered. Trying to save money by doing the repairs yourself may just end up costing far more than a traditional mechanic may have charged in the first place. Speaking of which…
The average cost:
Depending upon the extent of the damages, the average repair can range from less than $100 to upwards of thousands in a worst case scenario. The cost is usually determined by the amount of labor the job requires, whether the head needed full replacement or a simple repair, as well as what materials the head is built from (iron is older, and tends to be more expensive to work with than the more modern aluminum due to scarcity of parts). For a better price in the long run, always be sure to get your car in for repairs as soon as you suspect it has a mechanical issue of some kind.
When it’s time to replace:
Sadly, not every cylinder head can be repaired. In some cases, the damage a cylinder head suffers is too great to fix. The best way to determine whether a cylinder head needs replacement is assessment from a professional. There are some signs you can keep an eye out for, however, including white smoke coming from the engine, large cracks around the valves of the head, or simply the age of the part. Luckily, Clearwater Cylinder Heads offers new and rebuilt cylinder heads for nearly every make and model of car, making the ordeal of replacing a cylinder head that much cheaper and easier.
