That is a 2.5 Turbodiesel, not a 300 Tdi.

thats a 300 tdi if its got a 19j number stamped on it somethings dodgy like a nicked engine, its possible someone bought a genuine engine and wanted to retain the old number but thats still wrong

Can you get a better piccie showing the engine number?
Also as an aside, that plastic bleed screw in the thermostat housing , they can break over time. I would advise getting a brass one in there and oon the radiator.
Cheers

Could it have been rebuilt on a 19J block, using 300 head, sump, etc?

In that case, the only likely scenario I can see is that they have stamped the number of the 19j that came out of the vehicle on the new block.

It came from a wrecked disco but I suppose anything could happen down the line. As long as the no looks legit for Irish import it should be fine I think they just want a no that matches the log book no.Thanks for your help
