Last summer a lifter came apart in my van --went for a VW reman
engine -which at the time seem to be the only one around-apparently VW does
not reman them anymore. Replaced engine, got the stainless pipes and
everything ran smoothly--- Van was parked for most of the winter-  after
driving a few times this spring -I heard the exact knocking noise that it
made before when the lifter came apart--  anyone have problems with VW reman
engines? have not got to the problem yet- but just wondering if this is
possible to happen again-  we have about 300 or 400 miles on it since the
engine was put in --thanks for info--              troubled
