Hello,
My 2000 V6, with a manual tranny needs an engine replacement. Looking local and online, and it seems as though I have a narrow option for engines that are direct fit/plug and play for my year car. (For instance, when I search for engines for my 2000, the only options are 1999-98 engines, and the results are more narrow if I search by VIN. However, if I search for 2001 or 2002 engines I get more of a selection.) It has me VERY confused! I would logically think any motor from 98-2002 would fit without issue?!
Does anyone know why these different year engines are not intercha
