Engine Replacement
Discussion
Chaps,
I have seen a 2.4 JTD for sale and it's got 100,000 on the clock but had a new engine put in about 24,ooo miles ago.
What's peoples opinion on this, is it going to cause me a few problems or has the engine been in long enough to iron out any problems?
Also, if i do buy it will any warrenty company cover me or do they avid engine replcements like the plague?
Cheers
John

Have to wonder why the engine needed to be replaced - something drastic must have taken place not to have rebuilt the original. I'd want to know what failed and why it failed - if the car's been poorly maintained the question is what else is worn to oblivion?
Excellent point sir.
Cheers
