Default Oil pump wrecks my engine

I am new to the site which was recomended for your knowledge.
I have an 06 A6 Avant 72000miles. The engine is 2.0 TDI 103kw 140bhp. Engine Code BRE.
During an emissions test there was a bang so the test was stopped. I am told that oil pump has broken and the engine needs replaced. Any thoughts please?

This was a common problem. US Passat TDI used the same oil pump assembly. See here for more details: http://www.myturbodiesel.com/1000q_h...OilpumpFAQ.htm Feel free to sign up to myturbodiesel.com to follow up with this post since I'm not on Audiworld as often. The engine might not need to be replaced but it does need to be torn down to be inspected.
