[Wanted] 2.4 tdci engine
Hi there, unfortunately I’ve blown the engine on my 130, lost power overtaking a caravan, dipped the clutch and it ran away with itself. Cracked pistons 3 and 4.
So, long term I’m going to go bmw m57, but I could really do with a quick fix to get her back on the road and was wondering if anyone had a spare/ knew of one? ( or a spare m57!!…)
I’m in salisbury wilts but can sort collection…
Cheers

Thanks for that, yep definately the way to go, problem is I’m moving my workshop, having work done on the house that I’m helping with before builders get here, trying to carry out existing work jobs and also trying to turn the business to a new course… so a drop in engine would be great atm!
I have messaged mw about a kit and have a donor ready, it’s just the hassle.. thing is I’d then be into retrimming inside for the auto shifter, upping the brakes etc etc etc and I’ve just spent a month converting the back! Thank god it didn’t let go in the Italian alps!…

It’s too much time off the road to wait for him to do I fear.. and the cost…
Got a lead on a transit one nearby, will it run without an injector coding do we know? I have a gap iid diagnostic tool for the disco, not sure if that will do it or not…
