What affects the final price

Three things decide where your quote lands. The first is the engine itself. A small three cylinder petrol has fewer parts than a six cylinder diesel, and parts prices vary between manufacturers. The second is the damage. A wet belt that was caught early may only need a top end repair, while a seized bottom end needs bearings, pistons and machining. The third is parts availability, although OEM parts for the engines we see most are usually on the shelf.

What never changes is the structure. You approve a fixed written quote after the video inspection of the dismantled engine, and that is the price. If we find something unexpected during the rebuild, which is rare once an engine is fully stripped, we stop and talk to you before doing anything about it.

  • Fixed written quote approved by you before parts are ordered
  • OEM parts on all our repairs, never cheap pattern substitutes
  • Photographic rebuild report and test certification included
  • 12 month warranty, transferable if you sell the vehicle
  • Collection from your home or garage anywhere in the UK

The cheapest option is rarely the used engine

A used engine from a breaker might be quoted at a few hundred pounds less than a rebuild, but the comparison is not honest. The used engine comes with an unknown history, no meaningful warranty and no documentation. If it turns out to be faulty, and plenty do, you pay the fitting labour twice. Once to put it in and once to take it out. Then you still need the rebuild you should have had in the first place.

Our repair versus used engine article goes through the real numbers. When you add the risk of double labour and the value of a transferable 12 month warranty, a documented rebuild of your own engine wins almost every time. You can also check our frequently asked questions for straight answers on cost, timescale and warranty.

Tell us the vehicle, the engine if you know it, and the symptoms. An engineer will come back with a clear price and an honest view of the options. If a full rebuild is not the right answer for your vehicle, we will tell you that too. Repair rather than unnecessarily replace is the principle the whole business is built on.

Five star rated engine repair and rebuild service

The video of my stripped engine showed exactly why it failed. The rebuild was finished in a week and the car has been perfect since.

My Transit is my living. They collected it from my depot, rebuilt the EcoBlue and had me back working inside ten days.
Sandra K, Manchester
Two garages told me to scrap the car or fit a used engine. Engine Repairs rebuilt it properly and the warranty transferred when I sold it.
