Title: Newbie 😄
Post by: Aleksistar on 30 September 2023, 12:49
Hello everyone
My name is ash and I'm based in London.  I have a vw golf mk6 DSG1.2 tsi. Sadly I've had a timing chain failure and consequently my engine gave up.
I am now considering of putting a 2lt gti engine from another mk6 that's been written off. I've got the engine, the ecu, the wiring loom , engine mounts ,brakes, shafts etc. Just wondering,Has anyone ever done a swap like this before and what sort of challenges should be expected?
Thanks again for any feedback.
