Passat replacement engine
My Passat 1.8T's engine finally terminated yesterday. I am now loooking
round for a replacement engine and was wondering if rather than replacing it with the same 1.8T it would be possible to replace it with any of the other engine options? |

Passat replacement engine
Jack
Camshaft seized, think it was the dreaded oil sludge problem despite having had the oil & filter changed only 6 weeks ago. I am waiting for a more detailed report from the garage and hope to put my case to VW as the car is a only 6 years old and has under 80,000 miles on the clock. I have only recently become aware of the oil problems so am not sure I have all the bills to confirm that the oil changes were done within the specified periods. To be honest my local dealership where I bought it from 4 years ago are worse than useless so I have only had it serviced with them once. The other services were done by a local independent garage. If anyone out there has experience of the best way to approach VW in the UK about this please let me know. David Jack Lowry wrote: > wrote: > > My Passat 1.8T's engine finally terminated yesterday.
