When ordering engine spare parts, you should always refer to the service manual. There are many different components, so you must make sure the part you think is defective, is the one you need to replace. You should make certain the part number is the correct one for the required component. There can be minor variations from model to model, so a thorough check is recommended. All engine parts will have a serial number, and this should match the defective part you wish to replace.
There are many inferior parts on the market that are not recommended by the manufacturer. They may look the same, and are usually cheaper than genuine components, but the quality is not the same as a genuine part, which is endorsed by the manufacturer. Fitting a substandard component can cause major damage to the engine, and upon inspection by the service engineers, it could even result in a void warranty!
Rather than pay the high price for new parts, it is a better idea to use genuine used components, taken from vehicles that are no longer usable due to accidental damage. A car that has had a rear end collision, and is declared a write off, will end up in a wrecker’s yard where all the usable components will be stripped down, cleaned and tested before being sold as used parts. Most vehicle owners prefer to buy second hand parts because they save money, and they can rest assured that the part is genuine.
At JTW Autoparts, we have a range of reconditioned engines that have been overhauled by our mechanics. If it is a major component that needs replacing, such as a crankshaft or cylinder head, it is often a better solution to replace the entire engine. Wear and tear is something that all components suffer, so if the engine had a high mileage, it pays to replace it with a reconditioned one. This way you can be sure that you will have trouble-free motoring for many years to come.
We pride ourselves in the range of popular makes and models that we stock, and our reconditioned engines are painstakingly put together by professional mechanics to ensure that our customers receive the best quality units.
Here is a list of some of the makes we work with:
This is best left to the trained mechanics, and at JWT Autoparts, our team of skilled technicians will expertly fit your reconditioned engine. No one knows the insides of an engine like a trained mechanic, so be sure to use an expert for all engine part replacements. We offer a parts and labour warranty, which gives you peace of mind.
