What parts come with a remanufactured engine?

I was asked to help another member with his car. I did an oil change, and I believe a filter change and some kind of seal job. I've done a little research on the forum about this, and it seems he may be looking at a remanufactured engine. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how much more or less work is involved in getting an engine remanufactured?

The easiest way to be able to answer your question would be to have someone who's experienced in this trade walk you through it and explain what's involved and what steps are required for it. This is assuming that you're a DIY person and can take the engine back in to get it checked out and serviced if need be.

Thanks for the quick reply! So if there is no other maintenance, such as oil changes or spark plug or anything other than what I mentioned above (seal job, filter change), then the engine would be pretty much ready to go, just need it serviced? For a good shop, they'll not only change the oil and filter and service the cooling system, but they'll replace belts and hoses, make sure there is adequate water supply and check tire pressures. If you've done it yourself, the work should be more or less the same, but the shop is the best way to be absolutely sure. You'll save the money without losing the benefits.

Just to add to this. When you first change your oil and start the engine, if you hear any clanging and clacking, or it seems hard to start, it means there is something binding up in the valves. If your O rings aren't replaced or you don't do a flush of your head/head gasket, it will lead to premature ring failure.

Is a rebuilt engine the same as remanufactured?

Answers. No, a rebuilt engine is not the same as a remanufactured engine. A remanufactured engine is manufactured by replacing the cylinders with new, and then remanufacturing the entire engine. A rebuilt engine is just the cylinders and crankshaft. It is not remanufactured in the sense that it is rebuilt.

Source. As far as I know, there's no such thing as a remanufactured engine. There's also no such thing as a "rebuilt" engine either - that's a new engine. The term "rebuilt" would apply to an engine which has been completely rebuilt (as in, the whole thing), rather than a partial rebuild. A "remanufactured" engine would be one where the cylinder heads have been removed and the cylinders, pistons and other parts have been replaced. A "remanufactured" engine would be one where the engine block and other parts have been completely replaced with new parts. If your question is about the difference between a "remanufactured" and "rebuilt" engine, the answer is yes, they're different. I'm not aware of any specific term for "partial" rebuilds, but I'd guess that if you were talking about something like a "partial remanufacture", the engine would be referred to as a "remanufacture". But, then again, I don't know how common that kind of terminology is.

Can I get my engine remanufactured?

My engine has been in a shop for over a year. There have been several occasions where the service manager told me that he can do the remanufacturing on my engine. I believe that he knows that I am a small time buyer of a small time manufacturer. But yet he always tells me that he will get back to me within one day.

At this moment the engine is in his shop and the shop called me and told me that he will be done with the engine in a couple of weeks. I know it is not done, I know it has been doing all kinds of test and what not.

I need the answers please, if you can help me to get my money back, by giving me the right contact of the remanufacturer? Hi I was just curious as to why your engine is being worked on when you can tell by looking that it is not completely rebuilt. This is common in many places. It seems the way you were told was wrong, when you call a company you should be told what they are doing and told it is not completed.

If you are going to get an estimate from them they need to tell you all of the work and when it is going to be done. You will then know when they have finished and how much they are charging you.

If this is the only thing you are going to do then you need to see if there is any way that you can get your money back. For example if they agree to give you a gift card for a future repair that will cover it then all you have to do is put it on your credit card.

When you call the shop they need to say that they are not done and when they will be done. They will need to give you a timeline. I think they would not want to do the work unless they knew how long it was going to take.

Thanks for the reply. The shop did charge me but the cost was higher than the remanufacture.

They told me that they can do the rebuild as they said. Then they showed me the engine which was not done.
