CorradoDaf

Ah so it's not the same as the golf, thats useful to know. I'd rather rebuild the whole thing as it's done 150K+ so it would benefit from a re-bore, rings etc etc! Trouble is i work six days and need the car every day! Hence looking for another engine. How do identify if its the same engine? I.e. if i go to a breakers and they have an audi are there some engine codes that will match up with mine? (just a quick ad on - is this ebay item the same engine??? 140110974937) daf

Hi, I'm new to the Corrado world - infact i am new to the VW world! I've had my corrado 2 weeks and i LOVE it, last car was an MR2 turbo and that was just stupid! Ok here goes I have a 2.016V K reg corrado and the engine is a little ropey and smokey! So i would like to source a second hand unit to rebuild in my spare time and fit it in the summer - just a few questions. 1. What other VW cars will i find the 2.016V unit in? 2. Any suggestions where i can source one? 3. How much do they go for? 4. Anything to be wary of? 5. Any other points to consider? Many thanks Daf
