Lovely, thanks!
I would be inclined to say yes but these things have a mind of their own. A few months ago, a friend's 300tdi was displaying the same symptoms yours was. We took the head off, took it for a skim, some spots needed filling, we got it back looking newer than new, re-fitted it and it got worse. The head was cracked internally.
