Brian0-7 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Sorry if this has been asked and answered before but I couldn't see it. I've one of the 1.6 TDCI engines that have well reported turbo/oil problems for one reason or the other and I've now managed to sieze my engine and my mechanic has suggested a replacement engine would be cheaper rather than a strip down of my existing engine so what I'm asking is what make/model/type of engine would I be best going for, if there is any difference at all in that respect or would a 1.8 TDCI be a straight forward swap out as I'm led to believe the 1.8 doesn't have the same turbo/oil problem traits Thanks in advance for any replies/pointers car specis > Manufacturer: Ford Model:FOCUS DIESEL ESTATE 1.6 TDCi LX 5dr [110] [Euro 4] Model Year: 2006 Transmission:Manual Engine Size:1600cc First Registered:30/06/2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian0-7 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 Appoligies if my question is a silly one and if it is can someone just tell me that please, if it's not a silly question, is it possible to use a 1.8 engine for the swap out?
