Anyone got a 2003 RS6 long block for sale... maybe from your rear ended RS collecting dust?

Here is my story - and unfortunate results.

I got some needed engine work done on my 2003 Audi RS6.

• Rebuilt turbos and upgraded exhaust and compressor wheels
• Replaced exhaust pipes (due to big holes in both flex pipes)
• Valve cover gaskets replaced
• Timing belt (with accessories)
• Few other seals (eg: crankshaft)

A few months before this happened, I replaced the ignition coil in the same cylinder (not sure if it's related).

After the work was done, I drove it for a couple weeks without any issues - wasn't pushing it at all.
Then, on a nice day, I gave the car a bit of juice and the check engine light started flashing like crazy.
Result:

Cylinder No. 2

Cylinder No. 2


I've been told this is not common and this engine itself is solid (if excluding trans issues).
I'm not 100% sure what happened to cylinder number 2 either, thoughts?

Everyone I've talked to can't do anything to fix it either. Ideas are welcome!
