There are several possible solutions for an engine failure. You either require enough automotive know how or the right specialist who can assess the condition of your existing engine and the extent of the damage and, most importantly, your budget.
At Apex Engines, we investigate the fault to establish the reason for failure before recommending repair, rebuilding or replacement. Our experienced technicians specialize in diagnostics, engine sourcing, vehicle collection, removal of the failed engine, installation, required adaptations, final diagnostics and road testing.
Which Replacement Engine Option Is Right for Your Car?
Engine replacements are major technical endeavours, and it pays to know which choice suits you best. Let us clarify what choices are available and what you should choose.
Reconditioned Engines
A reconditioned engine is the best of both worlds choice when you are looking for a reliable engine replacement while saving some money. We at Apex Engines take a low mileage used engine and dismantle it to inspect the internal components for wear or damage.
Depending on the engine and its condition, the work may involve cleaning, measuring components, machining worn surfaces and replacing items such as bearings, seals, gaskets and timing components.
Reconditioning is normally considered when greater internal inspection and restoration are required rather than simply fitting an engine removed from another vehicle.
Used engines
If you are on a tight budget and want a low cost alternative, then a used replacement engine is your best choice. Engine identification is important. Vehicles of the same make and model can use different engine codes, specifications and electronic systems, so compatibility should be confirmed before an engine is supplied or fitted.
Our team can use your vehicle details to identify the correct engine option before providing a quotation.
Rebuilding your existing engine
If the engine block is in good shape and you want to avoid the complications in automotive documentation, then rebuilding your existing engine is your best choice.
Depending on the fault and the condition of the major components, the original engine may be stripped, inspected, machined and rebuilt.
This can be particularly suitable where the engine block and other important components remain serviceable.
Our Proven Engine Replacement Process at Apex Engines
With our 30 years of hands on experience, we have devised a streamlined process that guides the vehicle owner every step of the way. First things first, you provide your registration number or vehicle details so that we can identify the correct make, model, year and engine specification.
We consider the symptoms, known damage and available engine options before recommending repair, rebuilding, a reconditioned engine or a used replacement. An engine can be supplied for installation elsewhere where available, or the vehicle can be brought to our Preston workshop for a complete supply-and-fit service. Vehicle collection can also be arranged for non-running cars.
For supply-and-fit work, the failed engine is removed and the replacement is installed with the required ancillary components, fluids and electronic adaptations. After installation, the vehicle is checked using diagnostic equipment and road tested before handover.
You will also receive the applicable warranty and aftercare information for the work completed.
Engine Problems Our Technicians Face Regularly at Apex Engines
At Apex Engines, we get to see a myriad of failed engines every day, and we diagnose them before even thinking about engine replacement.
Jaguar and Land Rover Ingenium engines, for example, may present with timing-system related symptoms such as rattling on startup, warning lights or loss of performance.
Range Rover TDV6 and SDV6 engines can suffer serious bottom-end or crankshaft-related damage that may cause knocking, oil-pressure warnings or complete engine failure.
Other engines may reach us because of overheating, low compression, excessive oil consumption, bearing wear, coolant loss or timing failure.
The important point is that the symptom alone does not confirm the repair required. The engine and its related systems need to be assessed before deciding whether repair, rebuilding or replacement offers the better solution.
What is Included in the Engine Rebuild?
The exact rebuild depends on the engine and the damage found after dismantling.
A typical engine reconditioning process can include:
engine removal and strip-down cleaning of internal components inspection for cracks and excessive wear measurement of bores, crankshaft and other critical components cylinder honing or machining where required cylinder-head inspection and machining where required replacement of worn internal components new seals and gaskets replacement of required timing components reassembly to the correct specifications diagnostic checks after installation road testing before handover
Our experienced technicians ensure that a rebuilt engine from our workshop runs true for years to come and keeps the vehicle running on the road without a glitch.
Each manufacturer section should lead to model-specific pages covering compatible engines, common faults and available replacement options.
Popular engine enquiries include Jaguar XF, Jaguar XE, Jaguar F-Pace, Range Rover Sport, Range Rover Evoque, Range Rover Vogue, Land Rover Discovery, Land Rover Discovery Sport, Land Rover Defender, MINI Cooper, Kia Sportage and Hyundai Tucson.
Why Choose Apex Engines for Engine Replacement?
If you are looking to find a reliable engine replacement, then our advice, with our 30 years of experience, is not to look for the cheapest engine online. Correct engine identification, diagnosis, installation and aftercare all affect the final result.
Apex Engines provides one point of contact for engine diagnosis, rebuilding, replacement, supply and fitting.
Our workshop works with both used and reconditioned engines, allowing us to discuss different options according to the vehicle, condition of the original engine and budget.
Replacement Engine Warranty and Aftercare
Our engine reconditioning process has such standards that we offer a warranty with every engine that is provided by us. The warranty period depends on many variables. A used engine warranty is dependent upon the mileage and condition of the engine, whereas the reconditioned engine carries a longer warranty depending on the work being done on the engine restoration.
A rebuilt engine usually has the longest warranty, as every worn out component is replaced and the warranty can stretch up to 12 months. You cannot only get your engine delivered at the destination of your choice, but you can also get the engine fitted by our experienced technicians according to factory fitting standards.
Frequently Asked Questions
The price depends on the vehicle, engine code, engine condition and whether you require supply only or professional fitting. A used engine will normally have a different price from a fully reconditioned unit. Your vehicle details are needed before an accurate quotation can be provided.
They serve different requirements. A used engine is normally supplied in its existing condition after inspection and testing, while a reconditioned engine has been dismantled so that worn or damaged internal components can be repaired, machined or replaced. The better option depends on your vehicle, budget and intended ownership.
Many engine fitting jobs are completed within several working days, but the actual turnaround depends on diagnosis, engine availability, additional parts required and the work discovered after dismantling. The estimated completion time should be confirmed when the vehicle has been assessed.
Yes. Vehicle collection can be arranged for non-running vehicles and transported to the Apex Engines workshop for diagnosis or engine replacement.
Warranty cover is available, but the exact duration, mileage limit, covered components and conditions should be confirmed for the engine and service you purchase. These details should be provided in writing before work begins.
Supply-only replacement engines are available for suitable vehicles. Engine compatibility should be checked using the vehicle and engine details before an order is confirmed.
The vehicle registration, model, production details and engine specification are checked before an engine is supplied. Modern vehicles can have several engine variants within the same model range, so engine code and compatibility checking is important before installation.
Jaguar XE 2.0 suffered a timing chain failure, causing VVT, cylinder head and camshaft damage. The engine was reconditioned, the turbocharger replaced, and the EGR and exhaust systems cleaned before refitting and testing.
