Bluemalbert blown engine in Germany

harrisop48 · 27th January 2018, 15:43

Just had a message from Malcolm who has blown his engine in Germany. He cannot access the Forum easily. He is asking for someone to check out this donor Vin Number SARRJLLFF503490621. Presumably to see if the engine is compatible. No idea where it is. I am out to the Bath Road Club (Cycling) Dinner tonight.
Can anyone help?

Malcolm has sent me a pm message.
I will pm Reebs to make contact with him.

I have sent Reebs a pm with Malcolm’s phone no and the problem he has with the car. Hopefully Paul will have access to the engine build data etc and will be able to give Malcolm the information he needs urgently.

I've got to take my hat off to the people I've been in touch with today. Harrisop, Gatekeeper, However, the posted info isn't totally tops - probs my fault for poor coms but yes my engine has taken a turn for the worse - but the motor is in the UK. It's me that's in Germany, working on a tour as a muso and trying to organise a poss donor unit for Phil T4 to do his magic on. Thanks guys, there is no other forum like this.

Hi Folks, PM received, but as Malcolm is on-line now I'll reply here

The VIN quoted (SARRJLLFF503490621) has a zero instead of a D and has a '1' too many at the end

It should read as follows (SARRJLLFF5D349062) and here is it's build record...

So I can confirm it's a V6 190 engine and comes in Ignition Blue as required.

I hope that helps.
