Engine Repair in Dayton, OH at Evans Volkswagen

Engine Repair at Evans Volkswagen in Vandalia, Ohio

Your vehicle is a complex piece of machinery with many moving parts. But with all of the components in a vehicle’s engine, it is no wonder it needs to be serviced regularly. Sometimes, engine parts can even break, which might mean a trip to the mechanic for an engine repair.

Why Engine Repair is Important

Your engine keeps your car going - it provides power to turn your wheels and navigate where you want to go at the speed you want. When things break, you can’t just drive on like nothing has happened without risking further damage to the broken component, not to mention the rest of the engine.

When You Should Get Engine Repair

When you need an engine repair, your car will practically beg you for a repair. Some obvious signs to take your vehicle into the shop include a car that won’t start, an illuminated “Check Engine” light, clicking, grinding, or whining sounds from the engine, or if the car stalls while driving.

The Engine Repair Process

Step 1 The service technician will first inspect the engine to evaluate the problem. Necessary repairs might include replacing a head gasket or belt, sealing an oil pan, and repairing or replacing valves, pistons, connecting rods, bearings, oil pumps, intake manifolds, timing belts, water pumps, and more.

Step 2 Once the issue is identified, a technician will make the necessary repairs to the damaged or broken components.

Step 3 Lastly, the technician will check to make sure the issue was fixed before passing the vehicle back over to you!

Cost of Engine Repair

Questions to Ask Your Service Technician

• Some engine repairs might cost more than the value of your vehicle. If this is the case, you might inquire if it would be better just to buy a new car.

Signs of a Quality Engine Repair

Signs will vary depending on what the issue is, but your vehicle should return to you with your main concerns having been addressed. The original problem should be fixed, and you shouldn’t notice new issues.

Caring for Your Vehicle After Engine Repair
