I have a 2017 ducato 2.3 maultijet 2 130. I have owned the vehicle 5 months and driven 3823 miles (15669 Total). Driving off a roundabout going from 2 to third noise from engine and engine cut out would not restart. Got vehicle recovered and recovery driver read fault codes none found. Independent garage checked fault codes none found got engine started but running very unbalanced they were too busy to look any further. The garage that I bought it from wanted to look at it. They have stripped the engine and number 4 cylinder has lost an exhaust valve with extensive damage to cylinder and head (requires a new engine) they have also found a fault code for an engine over reved saying it was my fault. They have sorced a second hand engine which they say has done 16000 miles and want to fit this engine as my old engine has got metal contamination in the turbo, injectors, oil feed pipe work etc. I have asked for proof of mileage but so far this has not been given.
They are only giving a three months warranty with it
Any advice would be welcome.
