*As of right now the car is still complete and has not been stripped into parts* - 7/8/2023
 

Due to the number of things on the engine and gearbox, I would rather the engine go as one complete unit rather than stripping it down into parts.

BKD 2.0 16V TDi – 02Q 6 speed gearbox

Dyno proven 290hp/460lbft
 

Looking for offers round £5000 for the engine alone.

I feel that’s a fair want considering that doesn’t even cover the cost of the parts originally, only most of the labor and other bits which went on during its time at Darkside.
 

Engine is complete with GTB2260VK turbo at 35psi with tubular manifold and braided oil line. New AMC head to rid the porous head issue BKDs are known for with new head studs to take the upped pressure. Oil cooler installed. 120% race injectors. ECU loaded with custom map (IMMO ON) Hardcut limiter. EGR full delete/valve and cooler. Aircon delete. Huge FMIC. Hard boost pipes. Decat pipe for said GTB turbo. Decat pipe for original turbo units using V band clips. 02Q gearbox has stronger selector forks and a Quaife LSD (QDF16R) installed along with Dark sides billet single mass flywheel and clutch kit which has covered about 30k miles.

At the time of parking up, the car was running perfectly. Mapped to run with as little smoke as possible as rolling coal isn’t my thing (There is still a haze, but it’s not clouds of smoke) If driven carefully and off boost, you can expect to see upwards towards 70+mpg, if driven hard you’ll see about 40mpg.

Being honest, I have beaten on this engine once up to temp and since being at dark side it’s never let me down. Never overheated, always had oil changes early (Because modified, DS recommends earlier services, also always changed the oil after track days) The starting from hot issue was resolved by Dark side (Another common thing with BKD 2.0 engines)

The gearbox had started to leak about five months ago. I’m told this is a seal between the box and the engine block. I’ve kept an eye on the gearbox oil and topped up when needed. But I’ve not investigated this anymore, so might be the seal to the block, or it might be something else.

Sometimes selecting 2^nd to 3^rd can be hit or miss if you’re really pushing it such as on track. I’ve never got to the bottom of this but considering this is probably the same original gearbox the car came with; it might be overdue a rebuild and some love.

The rest of the car, plenty of parts still on it and interior bits. But due to the age, some of the rubber coating from the door handles/switches are going gummy and sticky.

Body is showing signs of rust. Underside isn’t any better.

Do have an android auto head unit, MOMO steering wheel with boss and quick release.

Would you split the android auto head unit, MOMO steering wheel with boss and quick release.

Could you take some pics of the android head unit and how much would the stuff above be?
