Hi everyone, looking for some advice please. I heard the noise we all don‘t want to hear, my bottom end went! Not sure why as in my short ownership I‘ve looked after it with all the correct stuff and maintained it religiously! Anyway it happened and I suspect being on a fairly high millage might be why.
Anyway, I‘m looking to see if anyone else here has had a rebuild? It wasn‘t a huge knock and turned the car off straight away but a knock is a knock and I‘m guessing with the way the engines are precisely built it‘s gonna be bad no matter what. What‘s the rough sort of price for a bottom end rebuild? Would love to forge but probably go oem given the price difference.
Rambled on way too much just seeking a rough estimate of what it‘s likely to be, who‘s best recomeded (tdi, tgm, clockwise) etc closer to east anglia the better, if anyone has been in the same situation.
Many thanks in advance
