my e34 has head gasket problem with bad compression in cylinder 1 and 2. would it be worth it to replace the gasket or just replace the engine?? How much would it cost to do a head gasket job, what would i have to do???
or would it be better to rebuild the engine? how much would it cost for an engine with labor??? |

You should discuss this with your mechanic. The two of you can look at the relative costs involved.
However, a car that old is not worth the repair cost, unless you DIY. It may be that the head is warped. _________________
