Frequently asked questions about an engine repair

What should I do when my check engine light comes on?

When the check engine light comes on, it’s best to see a mechanic right away. This could mean anything from a minor issue to something serious.

What should I do if my car overheats?

If your car overheats, pull over safely and turn off the engine. Let it cool down, then check the coolant level. Add coolant or water if needed and get professional help quickly if this doesn’t fix the problem.

When should I change my engine oil?

Engine oil should be changed every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. Check your owner’s manual for the exact recommendations for your car.

Why is my engine oil discoloured?

Discolored oil can mean it’s old or mixed with coolant or fuel. It’s best to get it checked by a mechanic.

Is the engine repair or replacement part of the warranty?

It depends on your warranty. Many cover engine repairs up to a certain mileage or time. Check your warranty details or ask your dealer.

Is engine repair or replacement covered by insurance?

Engine repairs or replacements are typically not covered by standard insurance policies unless the damage is from an accident or other covered event. Check your policy for details.

How much does engine repair or replacement cost?

It varies widely. Minor repairs might be a few hundred pounds, but major repairs or replacements can cost several thousands. Always ask your mechanic for more information.

How much will an engine repair misfire cost me?

The cost of repairing a misfire depends on the issue. Common causes include faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors.

Is it worth it to repair a car engine?

It depends on the repair cost, your car’s value, and its condition. If the repair costs more than the car’s value, you might be better off getting a new one.
