After weeks of trying to solve engine misfire in cylinder 4, shop finally tore down the engine in my 2003 Discovery II (54,000 miles) and found #4 and #1 sleeves have slipped, with a squeaky clean piston top in #4.
The block is in good shape, never overheated so I'm wondering if the sleeves can be removed and replaced with a top hat type (a la automotivecom.com)?
If so, is it something most engine shops should be able to do? Don't really want to fork out $4500 for a new engine, but don't know if I should take the risk of trying a used on either...
Can someone help me weigh the options?
Thanks.
