What is your question?
Repair shop wants to replace cylinder head without further diagnosis at a cost of #1,500.00. How can they be sure without further diagnosis ?

We really need to know what they say is wrong with it! Maybe it has been tested already!
Yea have a second opinion. Ask them if they did a compression test on it. If compression is within 10% compared to other cylinders chances are its not the head.
the service mgr told me that the engine mechanic will be in on thursday to tear off the head, but i was there when they read the code today and he automatically advise it as needing a new head. Im very skeptical because after reading on line I found out that it could also be the TPS, EGR, Injector, Coil,or many other things, It only happen on acceleration when getting on the on ramp of the interstate, does not happen on level road under same acceleration. Help
Take it to another mechanic for a second opinion!! Many possible causes for a misfire/code. Least of which would be the head !! However that is possible! Maybe ask why it needs a cylinder head... then let us know.
