Engine Repair and Replacement

Engine Repair and Replacement
  • Most modern car engines, with proper maintenance, will last well over 200,000 miles without needing any major repair. Even so, there are always things that can go wrong.



  • Abnormal engine noise, roughness, or lack of power all signal mechanical problems that should be checked out immediately. When they’re caught and repaired early, further engine damage can generally be avoided.


  • Major engine failure can force a tough decision: repair the old car or throw in the towel and buy a new one? If you find yourself struggling with a dilemma like this, we can help you through the process by providing as much information as we can so that your final decision is based on the best facts available.


  • If engine replacement is an option you’re considering, we can help you find the best solution for your situation. For example, there are new, remanufactured, and used engines available on the market, all at different price points. No matter which option you choose, we’ll get your car running again in not time.
