Money Savings When Using Remanufactured Engines

By Debra Morgan


Every vehicle will sometimes break down or fail and will require a repair by a qualified technician. If the problem is a serious one, it could be that you will need a brand new power unit to get the vehicle working, and back on the road. A new unit from a manufacturer is beyond some budgets and a practical alternative is to buy Remanufactured Engines to save some money.

A factory stock engine for modern day vehicles will cost many thousands of dollars, and for some high end sports vehicles, in excess of this. There are now many businesses trading that will take your old engine and recondition it to make it as new again. These units are extremely environmentally friendly, much cheaper and will function as well as a manufacturer's engine.

There are a few options for you to choose from when deciding to buy a reconditioned motor and fit it in your car. You can either buy one from a firm that is ready or you can send your existing engine to them and their engineers will recondition it. These two methods are a cost effective way of getting a new engine that is going to be very reliable.

You will find a large number of auto stores in many areas that can find an engine that will be suitable for your vehicle. All of the car models will be covered and if they have a unit in stock it will normally be prepared and ready to fit. If they do not have what you are looking for, they can order one in for you, and they will contact you when it is ready for collection.

Another common route is to use one of the many online based firms that deal in reconditioned units. Their sites will have a large number of pages with engines they have in stock and they will be dispatched to you after being ordered. When buying from one of these outlets, it is a good practice to call before you order, to make sure you are getting an engine of the correct specification.

When an engineering company does not have a unit in stock and they cannot order one that will suit, they will ask you to send your unit in to them for attention. Their trained engineers can strip it and carry out all mechanical work to make it operational. Some of the firms will collect your vehicle and do all mechanical work before returning it to you ready for you to drive.

If you need to ship your engine to be worked on, you will need to use the services of a courier company and there are some points to consider. The price you will pay for shipping an engine is going to be costly due to its gross weight. The unit should be correctly and safely packaged and covered by goods in transit insurance.

Most engineering businesses will offer some kind of guarantee with their products. This may be a one to three year warranty or in some cases a mileage based guarantee. Any paperwork that details these guarantees should be kept safe in case you need to make a claim at a later date after a failure with the unit.
