Hey y'all first post here, getting ready to get my Jetta a new motor to swap in for the blown tdi in it that lost oil pressure on the freeway. The engine I'm interested in is said to have 76000 miles on it, and includes the transmission and turbo. It's from a 98 Jetta as well so it should be as painless as possible to swap in.
I'm wondering what are some things I should look over or check for on the replacement engine. Any tests or tools I should bring with to verify everything is legit? I should be able to perform and interpret any tests, as I'm not new to automotive, but don't have much diesel experience so I don't know what to look for in a used one.
Thanks in advance, have a great day everyone.
