The cambelt went on my v50 2005 dti and I need a new engine. There are a lot of engines on ebay but I want to be sure I'm getting a good one. What's the best source for an engine with verifiable mileage and history?
Thanks,
Anne

Do you need a full engine or just a cylinder head? I'm not sure if the bottom end survives on these.

Hi Anni, I am in the process of thinking about breaking a S40 2.0d 2005 with a Ecu fault it has full service history 150k is that mileage to high for you ?

Regards Gary.
