You didn't answer about the labor

GAZZUZZ:


long and short tokumbor.

GAZZUZZ:


remove engine put another one 6hrs, car is back on the road and will stay on the road for over 100,000miles no shaking. Cost of labour 35k

GAZZUZZ:
what are they remanufacture in a crankshaft?

radautoworks:
New one. Toyota Corolla. [b][b]Owner ready for engine replacement [/b]but really all it needs is crankshaft and oil pump. Owner will have a 6 month warranty parts and labor on the repair.

radautoworks:


Ask manufacturer for me please I don tire.

If it was bad in the first manufacture they should melt it down and make a new one nah

I will rather have one that was manufactured well, used for like 30-60,000km (18,000-36,000miles) asian specs Sharp toks engine

mayor2013:


@ the bolded. There are a lot of questions begging for answers

Can all parts be remanufactured

radautoworks:


Go sit in the corner of you're going to keep asking childish questions. Adults are talking.

radautoworks:


Evolve or get left behind Gazzuzz. My disappointment is that you tried to lie to win the argument knowing fully well what you were saying wasn't true. Beyond that, the rest of the discussion is personal preference but times are changing. I'm going to keep telling you that because I like you and you seem to have built something for yourself that you wouldn't want to lose being stubborn.

Calm down....... Mama


remanufactured crankshaft is a poorly manufactured crankshaft, then repaired abi?

I have been "rebuilding" engines for clients before all this we can do it started...

It is just an option when the engine is not far gone.


A proper teardown and repair is more expensive than what you just painted, and sadly in my opinion client would have gotten a better deal with a low mileage replacement because 100per of the engine would be very low mileage while in the pic above 10-20per of engine will have new/ remanufactured parts.

if you want to be transparent, give full details of what was/will be replaced at what cost.


no one says don't rebuild, please do, but don't make it seem like you are the only ones replacing engine parts.

This is Cartalk and we are here to learn about cars.

engines are not designed to last forever, but with proper care engines will go over 300,000miles without any major engine work.

the Toyota Corrola 2002- 2007 has an extremely sturdy build, I have seen them running at over 270,000miles on their original engines and on full synthetic oil without oil burn or engine rattles.

Case study above is a toyota corrolla 2004, came into the country around 2011 @ 106,541miles

clean bill of engine health judging by its service records in the USA.

Let's say between 2011-2018 car covered 30,000miles every year, current mileage would be (7 x 30,000) plus 210,000miles.

Ok let's say 20,000miles every year (7 x 20,000) plus 140,000miles

So we can comfortably say current mileage of vehicle is about 106,541miles plus between 210,000 - 140,000miles. Let's just assume 250,000miles.


Now the question is. What is best for the client?

a proper full rebuild?

Or a lowmileage under 36,000miles engine which is even much lower than the mileage of the car when it came into the country.

Food for thought


as I said, this is Cartalk, demeanors what do you think?

weyreypey:

Some engines do over 600,000 miles sir .. sold my first generation c180 W202 after all attempts to destroy the engine failed.

GAZZUZZ:


excellent German Build. That engine is 50k toks correct me if I am wrong sir

Alert! Alert!! Alert!!!

A call to arms by the replace gang

It seemed the rebuild gang was gaining too much traction

and so the replace gang decided to regroup and attack from the rear

This story is far from over yet

I've been following both sides, picking up a few lessons. I think there are no hard and fast rules. Each case should be treated on its own merit.

Price of engines, availability of low mileage engines(which can be confirmed by the vin tags riveted on the engines at point of purchase), mileage of present engine, extent of damage of present engine are a few things to consider.

Some engines are available for dirt cheap, it won't be worth the price of a rebuild. Irrespective of belief, there is very little that will likely go wrong in an engine that has done less than 10,000 miles being sold as used (Again, history of cars the used engine came from can be verified at point of purchase).

Flip side, some engines are crazily expensive that a rebuild is a more viable option, if it can be done properly, like those crazy Korean vehicles when engine is more expensive than the used car.

Everyman to his own, you people will likely never agree to the other person's point of view, because each process has been tested by each party to work well for them.

Rebuild or replace? Ultimately a judgement call.
