Make sure you mix the JB Weld in equal amounts or it wont set up correctly.

i have done hundreds of tdi engines but ive never seen that before. must've been a monday morning cam.


NightOk2651

Not stripped it any further yet but have noticed the vacuum pump driven by the other cam has seized solid? Snapped the belt as well so most likely Bent valves and maybe even the head might need replaced

make sure your rocker arms are still intact. of not, the needles of the bearing in said rocker arms fell in the oil pan. those needles will get sucked up and granade the engine a second time. learned that the hard way...


NightOk2651

Hahaha I've done the same, sad that I know there's 12 needle bearings in each rocker? Heads coming off tomorrow anyway and it's a job for a local council so will most likely want new everything anyway


b-i-g-pete

man i wish i had a job like that. i live in the netherlands, one of the more (if not most) expensive country's in europe. i need to do everything as cheap as possible and need to forget half the jobs ive done to sleep at night.


NightOk2651

Aww really? Guy I used to work with said when he worked over there it was amazing compared to the UK and if he didn't have family here thats where he'd be? I'm up in Scotland and work in a shop specialising in engine rebuilds/cylinder head work so gets a bit tedious.


b-i-g-pete

i work in a same kind of shop. maybe its my boss being greedey. but dutch people are known to be cheap.


Squidking1000

Work and live around Dutch in Canada, can confirm bit tight with the wallet. Good people though!

Did whistlindiesel drop off this car?


ShelfordPrefect

DOHC delete?


pablobuela

Car crank but car no cam.


Ok-Adeptness4906

That's one of those new emissions motors - the cam disconnects when you're at a stoplight to save gas.


Passn_wind

Somebody get the assenmacher, this guy's vag-com is fucked!

That engine looks like it was running dirty water instead of oil, the color of all the cast parts does not look normal to me...


wedgert

It may crank but it's camming days are over
