Hello,
I'm more familiar with Renault engines in terms of removal, re-building, tuning and refitting. However, I've just picked up a 55 reg passat 105 tdi saloon with a suspected siezed engine.
Can anyone give me some advice on:
Are there any watchouts I should know about before pulling the engine out?
Wheres the best place to get a spare engine?
Has anyone done a guide to doing this?
Can you get haynes manuals to cover this model?
Would it be possible to put the 2.0l engine in as a replacement and just swap the ECU or is it not that simple?
Thanks for the help!
