A friend is looking for a 1.4 turbo petrol engine to suit a 2017 Zafira Tourer. Anyone happen to know of anything?

they only come with 1 month warrenttee so get em in and run em asap
All the ones I got from them were emergency jobs and engines were in the car within a day or two max so never had to test the warranty thankfully.

you would need the engine code, are you sure it isnt a petrol engine being a 1.4T? B14NET or similar? They eat the chain guides, bits block the oil pickup and starve the engine of oil, killing turbo in the process. Lovely wee engine :grinning:

Apologies, it is petrol. No idea why I wrote diesel in the first post 🤦‍♂️.

I’ve told him to Google how to find the engine code for a Vauxhall as he will need it when ringing Traynors.

he has little to no chance really of getting an engine here, they eat themselves all too often and command a premium because of that. Try searching ebay with the engine code and expect to pay £2k+unfortunately, even then id be doing a chain kit on it and cleaning out the sump before fitting.

If his is still running then he has half a chance of saving it with a chain kit, sump clean, and turbo replaced.

Any recommendations for somewhere that would work on it? He’s Bangor based.

Not sure if it’s still running, will find out,

The odd time

That would have been Norman mc mullan's he would have got it in. They only break vauxhall and I'd be surprised if they don't have one.
