Cylinder Head

Buying a Cylinder Head: How to find the right engine cylinder head for your car

If your engine runs unevenly, cooling water disappears or performance decreases, a defective Cylinder Head may be the cause. You can find suitable cylinder heads and cylinder head spare parts for many vehicles in the ecanis shop so that you can plan a targeted repair or have the cylinder head completely replaced. Whether you need a complete engine cylinder head or individual components - you can rely on components in manufacturer quality, for example from KOLBENSCHMIDT or METZGER.

Cylinder Head: How it works and its influence on the service life of your engine

The Cylinder Head forms the upper end of the combustion chamber, guides the valves, seals the engine and dissipates a large proportion of the heat generated. Only if these functions work together properly will combustion, cooling and lubrication in your car remain stable and the cylinder head service life remain high. If the first signs of cylinder head damage are recognised early, you can avoid expensive consequential damage and maintain engine performance in everyday use and on long journeys.

Cylinder Head Defective: How to Regain Safety in Everyday Life

If a damaged or already half-broken Cylinder Head remains unchecked, there is a risk of breakdowns, downtime and high workshop costs. With a timely planned inspection and repair of the Cylinder Head and a regular check as part of maintenance, you can limit potential damage. This way, the Cylinder Head in your vehicle remains reliable and you can get back on the road more relaxed without having to constantly think about impending engine damage.

Repair or replace the Cylinder Head

When is it worth repairing the Cylinder Head?

A repair usually makes sense if the Cylinder Head is still in good overall condition and there is only limited damage. Typical examples are individual leaks, worn valves or defective seals, which can be repaired with suitable spare cylinder head parts. In such cases, you can have the Cylinder Head reconditioned and use specific gaskets, Screws and other accessories in manufacturer quality, for example from METZGER, instead of directly replacing a complete head.

When is a new Cylinder Head the better choice?

If the Cylinder Head is severely warped, cracked or has several serious defects, a new engine cylinder head is often the more economical solution. Especially with older vehicles or very high mileage, it is often more worthwhile to replace the entire Cylinder Head instead of repeatedly repairing individual defects. Buying a new Cylinder Head gives you a stable basis for the performance and reliability of your engine.
