I have sent out query via fax to these shops and hopefully they respond. Your idea is good but the problem is that I have paid full to this workshop who replaced the engine and he gave me two months warranty. If I were to get other workshop to source and do the job, I would have to pay for the new used engine + workmanship and chase for the present workshop to refund my money,  sure susah punya.And Hi Shiva73, I dont know about re-welding the crack portion but that was what happened to my original engine block (God knows where it is now...hopefully the workshop still keep it) but the overheating was the replaced engine and not due to crack.I did ask the workshop for an ugrade engine M54 instead but he said the engine is different . Ofcourse. I think he doesnt want to take the risk since he has to provide warranty and not confidence of his skill. If this is the situation, is it logical to fit my car with good (subjective) used1997 engine of same configuration as the original even if my original was Dec 1998. I am lost.Please share your opinion here, regards.Tok Pa.</blockquote>
