Seat, IBIZA, Hatchback, 2008, Manual, 1390 (cc), 3 doors

Description

This is what my machanic said that needs doing. The price here is what the engine needs doing.
£1365.52

That covers the labour, VAT and parts.

Thats a new cambelt and water pump, new head gasket set, new oil and filter, new antifreeze, new manifold gaskets, new rocker cover gasket, new piston rings and liners.

That will sort the misfire which will sort the emissions. You’ll still need to do the other bits for the MOT like the seatbelt and ball joints and it will likely go beyond the 10 days so will need another full MOT.

The EGR will be coming off so we could try cleaning it as think you said in the past that you’d had fault codes for that as well.

Pic 6: I used a bore scope to get some pictures and you can see the scoring on the cylinder walls inside the engine. This is from the piston rings breaking up

I compression tested it and it was 60psi below the other cylinders and went up when oil was added which also confirms piston rings

Pic 7: Finally I checked compression pulses inside the crankcase. These spikes should all be even and the tall spike is where pressure is pushing past the damaged ring

Any questions you have fire away and ask me. Need sold asap so I can look around for another car to get to work.
