Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Just wondering very roughly what a 996 engine needing a rebuild is worth complete with all ancillaries, inc exhaust , intake manifolds , throttle body , alternator , starter, etc… Engine literally just dropped and how it will be sold.
I believe it is hydrolocked and I have no clue what the condition is. But water has mixed in to the oil , so potentially a cracked head / bore score / d chunk / rod / etc etc , I have no clue .
I’ve sourced another unit for my car , but still on the fence if to sell or rebuild the faulty one in the future. Would appreciate a rough estimate as to what it would be worth if advertised.
If it's hydrolocked I understand that to be where water has entered the inlet (driving through deep water?) and the damage will probably be very extensive, bent rods and crank are likely for a start.
As above.
Hartech have a price list for all individual aspects to give you an idea:

Not due to deep water most likely a cracked head or something similar as the coolant is in the oil. It will definitely need a total strip down , diagnosis and full rebuild
I have just sold a complete engine. No damage just bore scoring on no6. If there is any damage to the head your engine is effectively scrap. I advertised mine for 9 months or more so it is unlikely to be a quick sale. Expect about £1500. As has been said probably worth more in parts but will take a while to find someone who wants engine internals.
I agree, mine was in my garage for 2.5 years, waiting for that rainy day. In the end Mrs M got fed up with banging her leg on it every time she went in the garage. I could have banned her from the garage i suppose.
