Which is as it should be. Unless the turbo/s are shot, there'd be no need to replace them.

From Audi, when you have a new engine or head, it's normally bare. On some engines it's built, but these are whereby the labour costs in stripping and transferring stuff over is expensive (generally on warranty units).

This might be worth a look - know of a couple of people who've been in need of S4 BBK motors and this place has come up trumps on both occasions and no issues shipping to the UK

I gather they speak/write English perfectly well so no issues dealing with them.

Depends on the exchange rate you can get £ to Euro and what shipping charge will be, plus if you can wait that long.

General consensus seems to be that their descriptions and mileages stack up when the goods arrive.

Hope you get it sorted soon....

Thanks for all the help guys.
I've bought a 2009 CCW engine from a Q5 with 19,000 miles on the clock. Currently fitting it now. :-) nice updates on this engine where the timing chains are concerned, and the rest is exactly the same once I pop my EGR system on it :-)

It wasn't the cheapest engine I found, but it looks brand new (inside and out) :-)
