Still think that a “contract” engine is cheaper than a repair? No matter how - restoring the engine on the old Passat
Overhaul of the motor is a nightmare for any car owner. Well, with the possible exception of those that are driven by drivers - they themselves do not even add oil to the engine. A unique video appeared on the channel of Ildar, a specialist in auto-selection, in which the blogger and his team decide to revive the Passat with a “damaged” engine. The engine of this car has already encountered interventions, and not small ones. Obviously, I didn't want to open it again.


And so the "voyages" for car dismantling begin: Ildar rightly decided that it would be easier and cheaper to purchase a contract motor. He visits one establishment after another, looks at the motors presented on popular bulletin boards, asks the price and calculates the upcoming costs. In these searches, a whole day passes, at the end it comes to the understanding that setting up a “contract” motor will cost a pretty penny. There are interesting options, but they will cost from 190 to 250 thousand rubles! The amount of a quarter of a million has a sobering effect on Ildar, and the thought comes by itself: why not deal with the motor on your own?

Moreover, the guys have serious experience in repairs. And so the work began. In the course of joint diagnostics, a “picture” emerges before the masters of their craft - what is wrong with the ill-fated Passat engine. And from that moment on, it remains a matter of technology to bring it into working condition. For details of how it was, see this video, kindly provided by the ILDAR AUTO-SELECTION channel.
