Apparently the MKIV and MKV heads have ALOT of issues and its common for people to shred entire heads/cams/valvertrain and get new motors

What happens out of warranty? SOL!

There was a kid who had this happen to him a few times and I thought he worked there I saw his car on the lot so much...luckily warrantied but jeez...I didnt think their heads were THAT bad...but sometimes truth is stranger than fiction....

Supposedly they fixed the design and the newer heads dont have this "problem" but...never can tell
