VW T5 Transporter "engine changed in just 5 hours ends BADLY!!!!" | PART 1| RACEVAN | CONVERSION |

So welcome to my other project that was never ment to be a project.
After engine failure in T5 Transporter (watch BMW M2 video), I decided to source another engine. Big huge thanks to Lee and Liam @tamesideautocentre for getting it done.
Whilst taking the old engine out we carried out some major service and maintenance work on the engine going in we completed all this in 5 hours and got her running again. I Can't rate this garage highly enough.

Cracking job lads by genuine mechanics that show how it’s done 👍🏻😉

Thanks for the vid , caravelle owner(T5) BNZ engine, did you say what type your was (engine label) and size? What happened to your old engine to need full replacement? Personally I would have liked a more detailed video of what was undone / when and a "tour" of the engine unit as a whole so we can see what is where on the engine (so difficult to identify when installed and unknowledgeable) but it's your video so you do you , as they say. Apparently the alloy heads do suffer from injector bore wear on VW engines from the hammering the injectors apply. A "metal bridge" is offered aftermarket to help support the injectors and restrict their movement. Rocker cover removal required plus a bit. Festa at t4forum also made some shims to spread the load too. I'm not an engineer to assess its effectiveness but you may wish to ask your mech friends to comment on it / check heads they see from time to time. Go well. ta
