I believe you can only raise a dispute within 45 days, and we're past that. I think i'm up to about day 86 now.

I looked on eBay to see if the seller was selling anything else, and he doesn't have any active account any longer.

Well, he seems to be a trader, it's a limited company, so maybe you're right, I could try Trading Standards.

I was going to try and diagnose the engine myself, I'm expect head gasket (although rare on the KV6), but I didn't want to invalidate the warranty, especially if it turned out to be something more serious.

It's not the first issue I had with the seller. I originally bought an engine from him, and after a month of not receiving it (it was damaged in transit) I got a refund.
