How Do I Know Whether To Replace My Engine?

If your car, truck or SUV is experiencing major engine issues, the technicians at Dale's Auto Repair in Baton Rouge, LA have you covered. You hear the engine knocking when it decides to start? Is there smoke pouring from your truck’s exhaust pipe? Whether you’re burning oil, your engine is on it’s last leg or has simply given up altogether, we can help. And if you’re not sure what you need, we can help with that too.

Just because your old engine has seen better days doesn’t mean the whole car needs to go. Engines, like any other car component, can be removed and replaced, giving your car a second life. If your engine has high mileage and in need of major repair, the repair will cost more than a replacement or you’re just tired of dealing with recurring engine problems, a replacement engine may be exactly what you need.

If your vehicle is in relatively good shape it makes sense to update it by rebuilding or replacing the engine, rather than replacing the vehicle. Remanufactured engines get better gas mileage than a worn engine, and they also emit fewer pollutants into the environment.

Often, replacing the engine is the most cost-effective option. Depending on what route you take, a replacement is usually also warrantied and guaranteed, ensuring you won’t be left with a bill for years to come. It also makes it easier to sell your SUV later down the road. You’ll make more money selling a working vehicle than just scrapping it in a junk yard with a bad engine.

No matter your engine maintenance and repair needs, we’ve got you covered. For the best engine service shop in Baton Rouge, LA, call or stop by Dale's Auto Repair today.
