R/R ENGINE STAMPED IN SERVICE BOOK? WHAT DOES THIS MEAN

[m1nky]

Help please!
I've just bought a 54 reg T350c. This was originaly a factory car so was serviced initialy by the factory. However on it's second service at 2,500 miles on top of the dealer stamp they wrote 'R / R engine' Does anybody know what this means, any help is appreciated - Thanks!

I would assume 'Red Rose'

[andyoleary]

yep, would imagine it means Red Rose too. Surely the seller mentioned it?

Recently Rebuilt?

Bought it out of the classifides from TurboTomato. He wasn't sure himself, he bought 12 months ago from a dealer but I dont think he was told or noticed the stamp in the book- he said it may be somthing to do with red rose but not sure? any ideas??

[m1nky]

Oh, and no as far as i'm aware it's not rebuilt

Sounds like it has a red rose engine upgrade.

Forgive my ignorance but how would the dealer know it was a red rose engine from the out side.

[andyoleary]

nice! Maybe you could find out who the dealer was and check with them?

It means remove & replace engine if the factory wrote it!

'Regularly Rogered!

[m1nky]

it was the factory that wrote it so I guess this means remove and replace engine. I might be a bit thick but does this mean replace with the same engine once serviced or did it have a new engine??

[anonymous-user]

It means with the same engine

Kirsty used to deal with that sort of thing at the factory, so she knows what she is talking about. Just to put you mind at rest.
