Nah, doesn't make sense to let someone else benefit from a new engine. The rest of the car (bar the alloys I'm considering getting refurbed) is 100%.

Do you know if this is brand new engine or factory rebuilt?
It certainly is a good outcome. It's a brand new engine from what I'm told, not a rebuild. Given the fact that the cost is €14,000 + VAT I would be comfortable in the notion that it's brand new. 2 year warranty coming with it.

The Koreans & Japanese have the balls to stand behind their Engineering (7 or even 8 year warranties) - the Germans don't want to know & just walk away. They have simply become unaccountable....
No you're not the only one. I'm of the same opinion and even moreso given that Valdas has worked on a few of them with the same issue. Speaking of which = @Valdas - the ones you worked on; were they stock or remapped?
