Hi all, wonder if anyone can help...my 1.9TD (ABL) engine blew up with 'Turbo run'(?) last week. The engine is wrecked, so I am after some help with either engine replacement or engine conversion. I am able to do the replacement but would need to pay someone to do the conversion I think. I am in Cardiff area in South Wales. ANY help would be massively appreciated!!!!! Thanks in advance

All depends on funds I guess. I'm in Midlands and have just forked out 2k on engine rebuild and fitting. Had new clutch and cyclinder head as part of rebuild as well. I needed it doing quick as my main vehicle. I was tempted to go full tdi with a doner vehicle but decided I'd rather just get new engine with warranty. At least I have piece of mind. If I'd done a tdi conversion and then the chuffer had issues I'd of been really p#ssed! So as said 2k 12months warranty or 12k miles and still old skool ABL so no electronics worries.

There's a cracking tdi engine on the other forum for sale. It's been rebuilt and is so clean you could eat your dinner off it. I've got the blokes number if you need it. I was going to buy but am sticking with the 2.5 now and fixing it up as I go along.
Blokes got it attached to gear box as well which has only done 98k.

Much prefer older engines, like some have mentioned no electrical issues ( unlike my Passat 2.0 tdi [emoji35]) give me wind up windows over electric any day!!!! Wouldn't even mind an hole in the drivers foot well and run on flintstone power [emoji3]
