Currently in the process of replacing the cylinder head on my 06 Audi A4 2.0T. I'm looking in junkyards and on eBay but was wondering if anyone here was selling or know of anybody who's selling?

you might ping naptown tuner on youtube. he knows a lot about the 2.0T - it isn't salvageable via work at a good machine shop?

I can give that a try. Yeah, I am planning on getting the exhaust valves replaced but was just giving a look at all my options before I proceed.

Yeah, I'd check out naptowntuner vid where he compares how 3 machine shops re did 3 head, and he goes over the differences and talks about which shop he prefers and why (I'll find the video and put it in this post). That would give you good industry specific knowledge to talk to local machine shops in your area. You might also do a knock and talk with your audi service manager, and ask who they recommend - they might be like "oh we never do that" but press nicely. I say that because naptowntuner was (and maybe still is) an Audi mechanic, worked at an Audi dealer doing the work. He was their 2.0T guy. Someone at your local audi probably knows who the best machine shop in the area is to do a head. They are likely to have someone who knows the 2.0T inside and out. Of course, it is possible you head is destroyed...the machine shop will tell you though. If it is machinable, you are talking hundreds, vs MUCH more for a new one or one you buy that has already been taken care of by a machine shop.
