Welcome to Freds!
Your information says 2000 Beetle 1.8 YDI (I do not know what that means)....
But this is for a 2004 Beetle TDI?
Just asking for clarification.

The Y is right next to the T on the keyboard, I have to correct that error all the time...Mark
Good catch, I looked at his sig and ASSumed it was an ALH. I guess my estimate was a bit low.

Could be an ALH from this post in another thread.
OP (you may be aware) the 2000 and 2004 TDIs have different engine designs.

My Bad
It is actually a 2004 tdi beetle, I have tried to edit my info but cant for some reason,but again thanks so much for all the valuable information!!!! Only paid 3 grand for the car, it is in perfect condition with only 53000 miles except now for a broken belt and screwed head. Wondering if this is not just the beginning?!?

It would be cheaper to have the head rebuilt by Frank...

I don't know what Frank would charges but, keep in mind that the engine from the junkyard may come with it's own issues. You have to weigh it all out. Good Luck!

If you're lucky, you only damaged the head and valves.
Sometimes, (less likely) you have a damaged piston and/or rod and/or crank. Sometimes, the wreckage will come out the exhaust, and destroy the turbo vanes. Hope the damage is minimal, in your case.

The beginning of you taking care of it better? Well, then...yes I guess. The engines are very durable as long as the maintenance is done on it, especially the timing belt system.
I have 328K miles and have done all the timing belt work on it. Engine runs like a champ. So can yours.

Thank you guys for the recommendations. Please note, it is Franko6 not Frank ZERO Six...
Whatever the problem with these engines, we do have proven results. We know the engine and the best way to get the job done.
Feel free to contact me. I may be available sporadically over the next few days.

BTW: We do have a good operating BEW long block. 138,000 miles. The head was removed. We checked the block, reinstalled the head and have a new timing belt installed and timed. It is clean inside and out and ready to install. $2500 + shipping. It has a Stage II cam, with modified bearings for cam oiling improvement.

Cheaper and I'd be more confident in a head done by Frank06.
