        So I'd be asking what caused the dropped valve...

          ...a weak/broken valve spring, dislodged valve stem collet comes quickly to my mind. So, the mechanic who did timing belt, doesn't have to be at the fault.

            In my opinion this is extremely rare. I have been a member of the T4 Forum for 10 years that has over 151,000 members, mostly with the 2.5TDI engine & I can't remember anyone ever posting with a dropped valve.

            Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.

              Valve stem broke just behind the head. This got belted around and chewed metal off everything. I have a low k motor on its way to replace mine.

                Bummer, so is there anyway that this should have been picked up, or just one of those random crappy things?
