  1. Hi Steve thanks for your reply 👍 I haven't taken the engine out yet, it still runs but there is zero oil getting pumped around the engine now and it sounds so bad😢 I have replaced the oil pump and when I pop the sump off there was a lot plastic from the chain guides. I thought I might just be easier to get another 2.7tdi of around the same year and change the bare block and use all my ancillaries. After looking around for a new donar engine there are a few different engine codes to chose from. Physically the engines look the same with the same HP ratings but I'm not sure if I can buy 1 and swap my external engine parts over to it and install it into my car? My engine code is CANC and it appears they are quote rare and very expensive. I will keep looking for a like for like replacement but if I can get confirmation another 2.7tdi like a engine code CAMA would work I would just buy a block and install it. If I get confirmation that only a engine code CANC will work in my car and nothing else then I will get the lump out the car and open it up to see where it has failed. With the amount of broken chain guides and swarf in the sump I would think this lump is finished. Chris
  2. Hi folks, I am new to this forum, I have recently had a catastrophic engine failure on my 2010 audi a6 2.7tdi quattro. I suspect the chain guides have given up as I have loads of plastic in my sump and the engine has no oil pressure now. My question is, I have a engine code CANC but can I swap the bare block out with a CAMA? I would obviously use all the sensors and almost everything externally off my existing lump. Is this doable or do I need to get the same engine coded bare block?? Any advise would be very much appreciated as I really like the car and would like to get it back on the road 👍 Kindest regards Chris
