      Can't help with your question, sorry, however being a sunny Easter holiday weekend, there's a fair chance folk are busy doing other family type stuff and not sitting stuck to a forum all day.

      Give folk a chance, I'm sure they'll help if and when they can.

          Engine swop

          Compare the 2 together I suspect you’ll have to swap over the glow plugs and associated wiring connections etc from one to the other.
          The engine will be the same but maybe subtle differences between the 2 variants need to compare and see.

          Remember to come back and let us all know as it may help others who have to do the same.

          I guess oil seal failure is the reason for change?

            I’d guess that the ecu would have to be reprogrammed cause it would probably keep going into limp mode due to the wrong glow plugs. Wether or not you can fit the engine and change the plugs is another question

              Had engine swapped on my 11 plate 2.0 1.60

              Garage said they had to swap old loom over. Not sure on year of the engine tho it came from, but only 49k on it so probably is from a newer revised spec engine.
