my car is poorly....could be costly


well i noticed a wee tappety noise the other month so booked car in to be looked at and found out one of the tappetts was poooped so i said you may as well change them all......if one has gone the others could follow.
anyway got a phone call and asked to go to the jap garage and have a look at the car.....................
not good, it looks like the bad tappet has worn away the seat that it sits in, so its actually put a scouring mark around the seat....if that makes sense?
looking at possible new cylinder head?
plus my actuator is shot......as made 1.36 bar boost last saturday
