Hi,

Can anyone recommend anywhere to purchase a reman or recon engine from? Ivor Searle, TPS and VEGE come in at a price that writes the car off.

It's a 2016 S5 (CREC) that has had a supercharger failure and resulted in a hydrolocked cylinder and subsequently shredded cyclinder 1. The bores are too damaged to repair and one head is damaged so no good for a recon of the existing.

I'm very stuck so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Being the later revised 3.0 there is little second hand availability too.

Thank you

***Before anyone says it. Audi has void the warranty as the water pump was replaced by a non authorised garage and they concluded it was done incorrectly (it wasn't).
 
They will be some s5’s being parted out on eBay Probably won’t be reconditioned though
 
Best bet would be an S5 they are breaking. Might be hard to find one with the CREC. Think that's 2015 onwards.

Does the B9 use the CREC?
 
Yes and yes.

I have been keeping an eye out but there haven't been any parted in the last two weeks.
