HOW MUCH WILL AN ENGINE REPAIR COST?

The short answer is: it depends on the problem. Full engine replacements can be costly, and it will be down to the customer to decide the best route forward. But engine repairs and replacement parts are more affordable. Large savings can be made with warranties. But a typical engine repair will be between $2,000 and $4,000.

IS IT CHEAPER TO REBUILD OR BUY A NEW ENGINE?

This depends on the brand of car, the model, and the year of manufacture. Rebuilding, otherwise known as cleaning or fully repairing an engine, can be done within some people’s budget. But we always recommend new engines if possible. Having said that, new engines are expensive. Sometimes an engine rebuild is more affordable from a competitive dealer.

IS A REBUILT ENGINE AS GOOD AS A NEW ENGINE?

It can be difficult to say because there are so many factors to consider. But correctly rebuilt engines can be just as good as new ones. This is especially the case if the engine retains its original warranty.

DOES GETTING A NEW ENGINE RESET THE MILEAGE?

It is best practice not to reset the odometer (speed gauge). This is because it reflects the true mileage of the vehicle. Once an engine has been replaced, we recommend keeping a written record of the miles on the new engine. This will enable you to compare the mileage of the new engine with the mileage of the vehicle itself.
