Hello gents, new here! Dunno if anyone can help, i bought the mrs an S Max with the brilliant 2.5t 5 cyl petrol unit. The aux belt snapped and pulled the cam belt off which has damaged the engine irreparably. Seems that new engines are bloody £2k! Volvo use the same unit - I was wondering if anyone has experience of putting a volvo engine in a ford reasonably straightforwardly? Obviously we'd need to transfer some kit from the old engine to the new, but I ask because I may be able to get hold of a volvo unit at a lesser cost. Many thanks, james
