Hi, can anyone help me out with information about an engine replacement for my 2002 LT32 2.5TDI (BBF). It dropped a valve on Monday and it looks like the motor is toast. As the engine was a 61Kw low power engine and now I need to replace it maybe this is the time to see if its possible to replace it with a more powerful unit, even the 2.8 one. Any help or advice welcome. Cheers.

Sorry cant help you, as i have the same question myself.
I have the possibility to by a very nice -99 LT2 with a broken 2,8 131hp engine. Does the 2,5tdi from the T4 fit the gearbox on the LT2, are there any other mayor problems i will have fitting it?

Stick with the 2.5 tdi, if you change to the 2.8 tdi you need to change wiring, ecu etc

You cant beat the 5 potter, the sound is awesome.

Have you had your head of ? If its dropped a valve your bottom end less the piston might still be okay ?

The T4 Gearbox OR DMF will not fit the LT, the T4 engine will with modification's fit into the LT but I would not recommend it, needs the block modifying a lot of work.
