Hi new here and to golf's.
Have worked on my sisters golf gt tdi a few times but have never owned one myself....
Until now. Have just bought a mk5 gti 2.0 tfsi with the axx engine. Was told by the bloke the timing belt had snapped and had bent valves apparently confirmed by a compression test.
The engine was already partly stripped by the last owner so today I continued to strip it and removed the head. Well there was no bent valves but I did discover a fair bit of play in the exhaust side of the turbo. It turns out the block is seized

Andy:
welcome to the forum-goo time to put a ed30 engine in

Jimbozzr6@gmail.com:
what is the code for the ed30? I'm going to strip the block this week and take it to my engineer and get a quote for a rebuild of both block and oil pump.

Well I've ordered a bwa to go in so should be up and running before long! Top spec with all leather interior and sat nav/dvd player looking forward too some mods!
