Expert diagnosis & tailored rebuild advice
Full or partial engine rebuilds to suit your vehicle
Thorough Workmanship, Built to Last
Rebuilding an engine is about more than replacing parts; it’s about restoring trust in your vehicle. We inspect crankshafts, cylinder heads, valves, pistons and seals to pinpoint what failed and why.
From machining and honing to full reassembly, everything is done in-house or by trusted machine shops we work closely with. We’ll also check surrounding components like cooling systems, timing chains and sensors, so no fault is left unresolved.
If you’re not sure whether a rebuild or replacement is right, we’ll talk you through both options with practical advice you can rely on.
FAQ
Is it better to rebuild or replace an engine?
It depends on the extent of the damage, the age of the vehicle and the availability of replacement engines. Rebuilding is often more cost-effective if the core components are still salvageable, especially in well-maintained cars. A replacement might be more efficient if the engine is beyond repair or parts are unavailable.
How long does an engine rebuild take?
A standard engine rebuild typically takes 1 to 2 weeks, depending on the complexity of the job and parts availability. If machining or hard-to-source components are involved, it may take longer. Diagnostic inspections are done first to estimate timelines accurately.
What are the signs my engine needs rebuilding?
Telltale signs include excessive smoke from the exhaust, loss of power, knocking noises, high oil consumption, and low compression. Ongoing overheating or metal shavings in the oil are also red flags. A diagnostic test and leak-down test can confirm the issue.
