ENGINE REPAIR
At the AutoFriends car service, a partial or complete overhaul of the engine is carried out, while all the necessary technological operations will be performed. After completion of all work, the engine will be adjusted and its output diagnostics will be performed, fine tuning of all elements and systems will be performed.
When repairing the engine, our employees use parts from leading manufacturers, which is a guarantee of high quality works.
Engine maintenance should be done regularly to prevent serious damage. If timely repairs are not carried out, the engine may fail on the road. This leads to serious consequences and endangers all road users.
Signs of a car engine breakdown
Any signs of a car engine malfunction that appear require close attention and specialist advice at the service station, since postponing the arrival at the service station and engine diagnostics can lead to very serious problems and in the future may entail more expensive and difficult repairs.
And so, in what cases it is necessary to contact the car service:
- thick exhaust smoke (blue smoke)
- carbon deposits on spark plugs
- uneven engine idling
- increased consumption gasoline
- engine knocking and other extraneous sounds are heard
- Low oil pressure
- Frequent overheating for no apparent reason
- excessive oil consumption
- emulsion in the antifreeze tank
- engine intermittent operation
- noticeable drop in power, especially when accelerating
- floating engine speed at idling
- oily traces or traces of leaks on the engine
- traces of oil on the asphalt after a long stop of the car
- instrument panel “check engine”
Troubleshooting and repairing the engine
Before proceeding to repair the engine, it is necessary to carry out visual diagnostics, computer and instrumental (measuring the compression in the cylinders).
After identifying the problems and reading the errors, an experienced technician will determine what kind of repair is required, it can be current ( for example, replacing the cylinder head gasket, replacing hydraulic lifters, replacing the chain and adjusting valves, etc.) or overhaul.
An overhaul of an engine includes removing the engine from the vehicle and disassembling it completely. After disassembly, inspection and troubleshooting of all engine parts is carried out, the cylinder head (cylinder head) is repaired (includes such processes as grinding the surface of the cylinder head, checking the cylinder head for tightness, lapping the valves), if necessary, replace the crankshaft, piston rings, pistons, intake valves, etc. release, cylinder block.

Further, the assembly is carried out in compliance with the necessary technological processes. Then the engine is installed on the vehicle and the final assembly and connection of the engine to the vehicle systems takes place. And finally, at the final stage, starting the engine, adjusting work and checking the engine’s performance on the road.
Engine repair is a labor-consuming and difficult operation in all respects.
It is best to entrust this work to the masters of their craft, at the AutoFriends car service a partial or complete overhaul of the engine is performed, while all the necessary technological operations will be performed and for the work performed and spare parts, a guarantee will be given.
