The problem is, the oil pump went and the engine lost oil pressure. The oil pump has been change now but car is knocking quite badly, I have been told that the bottom end might need replacing? I have also been told that it will either be just the bearings? Or could need the crank re-grinded or new piston? Also the bottom end from a 210 or 225 S3, TT . . . Will fit and work ??? But I have also been told that if the bottom end has gone due to oil pressure loss – then the top end would have gone too, due to the fact the top end need’s more oil pressure than the bottom. Meaning a full engine re-build.
So after doing some research – It works out that it would be allot easier , cheaper and make more sense just to do an engine replacement rather than strip the engine down, see what has gone and then replace and put back together.
If you follow the link below, I have found this company that offers this service and has a great reputation plus is the cheapest. You will see that there are four different choices (block 1-4) all depending on what power your are looking for . . .
