Hi,
My S3 engine had a melt down on the motorway couple of weeks ago. Some teeth broke off the timing belt, engine timing slipped out, engine continued to run. Pistons and valves met... The engine is in a bad way, so best approach seems to look for a replacement engine.
Needless to say not good news.
I have requested quotes through 1st choice online and got some back from the following;
Motors in Motion [NOTTS]
Engines First Ltd [NORFOLK]
Elite Auto Services [BUCKS]
Anyone have any experience dealing with these breakers/refurb guys? I'm looking for the usual, relatively low mileage, regularly serviced engine with warranty if possible. Might be too much to ask.
If no one has experience with dealing with these breakers, do you know of any reliable ones where I might be able to find this engine?
Thanks,
Eoghan
