Guides

On this page we gather three guides that help you through the whole journey to a working engine, written by Robert Wiklund, engine builder with over 30 years of experience. Exchange engine: how it works explains what an exchange engine is, what is included in a longblock, how the VIN verification works, and how the core deposit and the warranty are set up. What does an engine swap cost? goes through real price ranges for a used engine, a rebuilt exchange engine and a brand new engine, plus what drives the cost: the engine, the labour and the surrounding parts. Engine failure: what do you do now? is written for you if you are in the middle of an acute breakdown right now, with signs to recognise, the right order for the decisions, and realistic timelines.

Browse the whole range of rebuilt exchange engines, or read more about how the whole exchange works step by step under How the exchange system works, how the core return and the deposit work under Deposit and core return, and which warranty applies under Warranty and complaints. If you cannot find the answer you are looking for, get a quote and we will normally get back to you within one working day.
