Been to Sibbertoft today , camshaft pulley sheered, now  the dilemma ,repair the old engine, transplant a new engine , or  buy a new truck ,which means swapping all my goodies over..........Im tittsed orf........

TUFFTEE:
I would Go the Transplant Option! :roll:
Then you can Re-Build your engine at your leisure! Re-bore Cyls  Skimmed Head / lightened Flywheel Race/ Cam :lol:

What Fun? :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

I'm with tuftee on this one. Problem is the cost of a decent replacement.

Xtremeteam:
is it the 200 or 300 that has died???

i say rebuild it as if its only the cam thats scrap u will need a new cam,8 pushrods,maybe 8 rockers,a head gasket ,timing belt & a bit of time to do the job,

did my mates one over a wknd,2 hours for the head off,strip front cover,remove the pulleys etc,remove broken cam ,its not really a hard job considering u will pay over 1k for a tdi

dave_2A_2.25Turbo:
True enough - best bet is to rip off the head and see what the damage is!
