Default Audi/VAG specialists in East of England.

Hi guys.

Would any of you locals now any where. I need a new engine for my A4 Turbo. I dont really want a new engine as it needs updating on the V5.

Trying to find a decent rebuilder, but am a little concerned as the engine was due to oil pump failure.

Thanks
Lee

As said depends how far you want to travel, Jabbasport are near me seen some of their cars and heard good things about them. Don't have a VAG car so no direct experience of them.

Im sure they are expensive but they are specialists as such, they do it everyday and know the engines inside out, id rather take it to someone who has experience than someone who doesnt just to save a few quid. thats my opinion anyway
