Hi everyone,

This is my first post so I hope I found the correct forum.

Own a 2006 Jeep Liberty 2.8 CRD that was leaking coolant due to head gasket issue. Mechanic got the head off earlier this evening and called me to let me know it obviously isn't the first time the head has been remand (stamping on it only done by a machine shop, not factory according to him). He wasn't sure I should have the machine shop redo the head a second time. The alternative is a $1,700 new head from idparts.com. I'm thinking having the machine shop clean up the current head sounds much better, but don't want to be back in the shop again anytime soon so need to know...

Does anyone else have experience with this? can you rebuild/reman a CRD head more than once without creating problems?

I need to make a decision by tomorrow morning so any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
Richard
