The headgasket has gone on my 1.6 T Spark Lusso and I was wondering how much it would cost to get this replaced. What is the average price for this to be done?
Any help or advice would be appreciated, and it's not anything I would want to do myself :)

hi you can do it your self, done mine twice now ( once wear and tear and the other got flooded with water) 1.8 ts, you do need some special tools and some knowledge about these things, if you take it to shop min around £350.00 to £600.00 depending on who you take it to and arear of country, hope this helps, cheers

Just had mine done.
£50 Head gasket set
£60 Head presure test and skim
£25 New cambelt
£200 labour - mates rates

Only problem I have now in low compression, believed to be from the piston seals

Probably between 600 and 800 if you took it to an indie who knows what they're doing...

Just Alfa Spares in liverpool will do it for practically beer money but that isn't very helpfull when you're in somerset is it?
