Engine Overhauls

Smoking, knocking or low compression? Engines stripped, measured and rebuilt properly – petrol and diesel.

All makes welcomeR450/h labour

When an engine is badly worn or damaged, we strip it, measure it and tell you honestly whether it is worth rebuilding. A proper overhaul includes new bearings, rings, seals and gaskets, machining where needed and a careful run-in.

We also take care of the jobs that keep an engine alive – oil leaks, misfires, coils, injectors, engine mounts and oil coolers – before they turn into an overhaul.

What’s included

  • Compression & leak-down testing
  • Strip, measure & honest assessment
  • Bearings, rings, seals & gaskets
  • Machining through trusted engineering shops
  • Oil leaks, misfires & injector work

  • White smoke – coolant (head gasket)
  • Oil cooler or cam cover leaking

Tell us the colour of the smoke and when it happens – on start-up, under load or all the time. It points us straight to the cause.
