Engine and Transmission

It is essential to regularly check your car’s engine and thoroughly inspect the emission controls and ignition system to maintain the engine’s efficiency and ensure the longevity of your car’s motors.

Over time, some parts of the ignition system, such as the rotor button, contact breaker, or distributor cap, may need replacement. You might also need to adjust the head bolts on the cylinder or replace the spark plugs or filters. It’s important to check with your car mechanic regularly to assess the engine’s condition and replace any worn parts before they lead to more serious issues.

New cars may not need frequent engine tune-ups and can run smoothly for years without major repairs. However, it’s still wise to have regular professional inspections to prevent unexpected breakdowns. Even with proper maintenance, car engines can eventually experience wear.

If your engine starts to fail, you’ll have to decide whether to repair it or replace it. If the damage is repairable, you can continue using the engine for a few more years, but for severe damage, replacement is the best choice.

Engine repairs work well for cars that make strange noises or have locked-up engines. However, for engines that are completely damaged, replacing the engine is necessary. At our workshop, you have the option to choose between a brand-new engine or a more affordable, used engine. While a new engine is the preferred choice, a good-quality used engine is a viable alternative when you’re on a budget.

Our refurbished engines are reliable and an excellent option for those with limited funds. Ultimately, whether to repair or replace the engine depends on the overall condition and lifespan of your vehicle and its engine.
