IMO you are better off repairing one than buying a used one as they all have the same problems.

+1 for www.car-part.com . You might be able to find something through LKQ with a warranty too

This is why buying a used engine is a HUGE gamble as they all suffer from the same congenital birth defects

What happened to the motor? You might be better off building this motor properly than buying a used motor. Or buying a fresh rebuilt core and putting the peripherals on. The ‘06’s now are nearly 18 years old. Not only that but a good used motor and a fresh rebuilt core are almost the same price. Why gamble with an unknown used motor?

I agree with Post #6
The gamble is TOooo great for a used one .
