Audi S3 Engine Problems

[msdmjb]

All depends on numbers surely?
You buy a car, engine has issues, new engine installed........you effectively get a brand new motor to run in for the price of a used one. Getting a new engine is great and no worries about the other one being opened up - engine replacement isn't that complicated as it will be in a crate ready to be connected up, much rather this imaginary 18yr old was hooking up a new one than taking the head off and rummaging around inside it.
Or buy a used one not knowing how that one was treated.

I would keep the courtesy car until yours gets its new engine then treat the new engine as a new car.

The engine will be bare. all the ancilleries will need to be swapped across.

Have you discussed the possibility of rejection yet. Once you have formally wrote/declared the rejection the clock stops ie the allowed timescales to allow rejection if that makes sense.
Ask the question, if you get a half ***** answer then contact the ombudsman and the finance company. If they do value you as a customer then you should get the deal of a lifetime. Also mention you are a huge fan/user of social media
