WELCOME HOME BUDDY!!!!!!!

Looks like you have the infamous Head and Valve problem many of our members have. It's becoming a widely known issue. I would link you to the thread but I'm on my way out. Do a seach for Head and Valve and you will find the main thread for it. Sorry to hear you are having the problem, but welcome home!

Sorry about your luck..[&o]Don't forget to vote in the poll at the top of the H3 forum threads...Drove mine for about a week while out of town before I could get to the dealerand all was well with exception to the rough idle...so you should be fine.
