hi all. what better diesel engine could i fit? 2.5td? anything else?

my 2.2dti needs a new timing cover and i cant even get it off to replace let alone finding another 2.2dti engine for it.

its a 03 plate elite so a shame to scrap. Thumbs Up!

For UK, 2.2DTi will be the newest engine.  Is yours not repairable?

its a perfect engine but was leaking oil bad from the front crank seal, turns out the last owner used chemical metal to seal a cracked timing case right next to the crankshaft oil seal. but ive tried everything to remove this cover to replace it and have give up. i think the head/sump may need to come off  Sad

usually to remove the timing case you have to remove the sump bolts directly below the case, and loosen the others to allow the sump to drop a half inch or so for clearance?
