hi all firstly many thanks for reading this:

My 2000 passat tdi 115 AJM cylinder head is totally u/s and also having the misfortune of the turbo blowing too (the main shaft hanging out of its tree) i have been posed with an expensive and very expensive option.
should i?

pay through the odds and work 70hours for the next 3 months and get the work done properly or buy an replacement engine via a VW breakers/ebay

if i go through with the second option if i supplied engine numbers would/could somebody cross reference the numbers with my engine so i can ensure i get the right one or supply any info/advice to ensure i get this right?

it surely is as simple as getting the same engine code?

many thanks all for reading this and helping :1zhelp:
