That sucks, how often did you change the oil? How many miles on the motor?
Good luck with fix
and
keep us updated

 

44 700 mile
I always have the oil changed by my dealer.
Now and then when needed the dealer put some extra in the engine.
Apparently, the engine has a high oil consumption.

 

try to find a damaged car with a 2.0 tdi engine.vw,audi,seat,skoda,any should fit,just make sure it's not a common rail engine,but a pd.

 

Think I have found one out of a Dodge Caliber.

VW engine code is ECE (maybe that can help someone else)

To bad I can't put a better common rail or bigger 2.5 engine in it ... :rockon:

ECE is actually the chrysler code,equivalent to the vw code BKD.
2.0 tdi pumpe duse 16v 103 kw 140 hp.
the caliber one will do fine,it is identical.
i feel you for the 2.5 no go.
hope it won't be too expensive on you.
btw,how many km on the replacement?

 

Engine in front is the Original, the one on the right is the replacement.
Luckely it's a good one!

 

I'll be following this thread with interest.

Did you go with the Caliber doner vehicle or some other?

Are you going to replace the clutch and dual mass flywheel?

Best of luck.

BTW, are you going to do an autopsy on the original engine to determine the oil pressure failure. I'm sure I read on this forum of someone with a CRD that had a problem with the oil pump drive / balance shaft. The manufacturers sticker on the cam belt cover on my Patriot shows engine code BYL which, according to the parts book, has a balance shaft / non DPF. The other options in the parts book are BSY (non balance shaft) and BWD (balance shaft and DPF). Essentially, as Goguadi says, it's a BKD.

 

These VW Diesel are pretty bullet proof !! I'd like to know how it ended up like this ??

 

Hi,
The Volkswagen engine is indeed bulletproof, but apparently it can still go wrong.
I'm not going to do the cost to have the engine checked as I'm not gonna use it anymore.

Meanwhile, all is built on to the engine, that was a hugh job because nothing of the Cailber enigene is the same, even the cover on top is different.

Monday my garage will fit the engine in the Patriot. So, I am excited to have the Pat back!!

Cheers

 

 

how is the caliber engine not the same?

 

Only the engine is.
Turbo, valve cover, exhaust, hoses, ... and all that kind of stuff is different.

 

do you have a dpf on your pat?
mine has one.
don't know if there are any differences engine wise.
aybe just on manifold and exhaust.

 

Yes, I have a DPF.
Normally everything shout fit with it.

 

hope everything goes well. keep us posted.

 

Thanks goguadi !
So do I.

 

Just heard the news: the engine is in.
Sump must also be changed/

And now connect everything.

 

i guess you'll be driving it in a day or two.
what actually happened?
why did it die?
and i meant to ask,whereabout in belgium are you?

 

Verry odd indeed.
The VW engine was one of the most important reasons why I bought the Pat.

To bad here in Belgium Jeep isn't selling that good! They even don't make ad's.
And now they aren't selling the Patriot anymore.
'Cause I'd like to change it in for a new one.
He looks better and has a stronger (diesel) engine.

 

i know what you mean,i bought it mine for the same reason.
the new diesel pat has the 2.2 engine from mercedes.
they have sold quite a lot of those here in romania,but my dealer told me they have frequent clutch problems.

 

Still no luck ...
Had to change the flywheel (near the clutch).
And the injectors cause the computer of the Jeep won't recognize the injectors of the replacement engine.

Hope it's fixed in a few days so I can put the Grabbers on it!

 

Not as strait forward as I thought it might be but it sounds like you're nearly there now.

Probably a good idea to change the dual mass flywheel anyway. I've heard that the springs buffering the two halves can burst out when worn causing all sorts of mayhem.

Good luck, can't be long now.

 

I know this an old thread, but there is something that needs to be pointed out.

The VW engines that Jeep put in the Patriot DO NOT have balance shafts on the oil pump. They are the modified engines that do not have the balance shaft problem that early BKD's had.

 

Hi,
What engine code did you install? Are you satisfied after all these years?
My Compass I ( 2007 ) with the 2.0 TDI BYL engine broke the crankshaft, and 20k kilometers ago it broke the oil pump shaft. Totally 215.000km
What other engine fits? Αny suggestion accepted

Thanks a lot
