BMW N62B48 head gasket - costs?

[motoroller]

All the telltale signs are there for headgasket - lumpy running, mayo under oil cap, mixing of fluids.

Where in the country is best to have this job done? I'm having difficulty even getting quotes on this!

Any recommendations and a rough price range would be very helpful to me.

No advice?

That is a monstrous job and probably nobody will want to do it. Unless the car is fairly new, its probably not worth repairing.

Head gaskets! Sadly there are two.

And you could help us help you by giving a clue where you're located...

Yes, a location clue would help.

As for big job no-one wants, I'm not so sure.

I've had several head gaskets replaced on e36's for example. They seemed to eat them up. Last one was about £800 iirc and I ended up having all the valves skimmed too.

That was at an Indy in Lancashire.
