Has anyone else had to have the entire head replaced? I smell recall.

My h3 has been at the dealer for 2 days already cause they are replacing my cylinder head. I am under the impression that I will not have the H3 back for a few more days. How long does it take? and is it a serious problem where I should be thinking about selling the car. I currently have 34K miles on it

I had the cylinder head replaced somewheres around 10,000 miles (if I recall) ..and it took a few days because they had to get parts. I have 19,000 on it now and don't have any problems with that part of the vehicle. I think quite a few here have had that problem, but I haven't heard of anyone having recurring engine problems afterwards.

Just got mine back today from having the head replaced. I have almost 28,000 miles on it. I will keep you updated on how it runs.

When I had this problem with my H3- it took the dealer about 4 days to get it back to me.
