It's a Golf3.

The standard procedure for squaring up an engine is to scrap the car.

This will definitely solve the problem.

all i can suggest is rock it back and forth... does it move too much or bang??
surely if the mot was done recently it would have been picked up as a problem....
sorry i dont have a vr so cant say for certain,
