you need to get in touch with buffalobob on this site, i'm sure he charges around £1250 for a new cylinder and he can also check that is what it is for you, I had similar problems to yourself and was told it was the cylinder head when it was actually the water pump which is a lot cheaper, all the best sarah

Hi and welcome to the forum.
Another thing is are you having difficulty starting the engine or clouds of white smoke, these can be indications of head failure.
Would also recommend contacting BuffalloBob
