GENERAL INFORMATION
Prior to our collection of your vehicle by transporter, would you please remove all items of value from the vehicle as we will not accept responsibility for any items lost or damaged. For engines and gearboxes and cylinder heads the price quoted is for the mechanical component and doesn't include any electrical items, fuel injection system or exhaust. These parts will be removed from the old unit and fitted to the replacement one. Ancillary components such as clutches, dual mass flywheels, turbos, fuel injectors, starter motors or alternators if required are supplied at additional cost, unless agreed beforehand. We are a VAT registered garage and as such all prices quoted are exclusive of VAT. Quite often we collect vehicles in a stripped condition. This isn't a problem but we do ask that all the parts removed to be with the vehicle prior to us collecting. It is your responsibility to make sure all parts are in the vehicle when collected. In the event that any parts are missing there may be a charge applied for us to collect them or if they result in delaying the work schedule. The locking wheel nut key should also be available. Please retain your radio code as it may be lost when the battery is disconnected. Engines supplied are a "bare unit" and consist of Cylinder head(s), cylinder block, sump, and all internal components, and once fitted will have received new oil, new oil filter and a new cambelt (if required).

PAYMENT PLANS

We have several options available for credit facilities and can GUARANTEE most customers £1000 spread over 4 interest free payments of £250. The remaining outstanding balance will be payable upon completion of your vehicle repair. Please contact us for further information or visit the links below.

AIR CONDITIONING: 
In some cases, the gas in the air conditioning system may be lost during engine replacement and will require refill by a specialist at additional cost.

We will extract air con gas during the repair process and refill on completion to the same amount of gas recovered free of charge. If we must fill with more gas than that recovered from the system, we charge a standard £25.00 + VAT. If you require us to re-gas the system from empty we charge £89.99 + VAT. In the event that there is no gas present we will not attempt to refill after completion unless specifically instructed as it would be presumed there is a leak in the system. During the repair process seals on air con systems may be disturbed and subsequently lose their integrity. We cannot be held liable for rectification in cases such as these.

CLUTCHES:
We have no way of giving a definitive answer to the condition of your Clutch, DMF or associated components. We can and will of course advise you if we think it is worn or damaged to such a point that it will affect the running or use of your vehicle. If we advise replacement and you choose not to then we will not be held responsible for any problems encountered once your vehicle is complete

TURBOS:
If your engine failure is connected to a lack of oil or oil pressure then there is a strong possibility that your turbo will have been affected. Turbos generally spin at 18000 rpm and require a constant high-pressure oil feed, any interruption for no matter how short a time will cause either an instant total failure or premature wear, resulting in a gradual loss of power and high oil consumption. Worst case scenario is that a worn turbo fitted to a replacement engine can lead to another engine failure. We will advise if we recommend a replacement turbocharger.

RADIATORS, PIPES AND INTERCOOLERS:
Engine failures sometimes lead to contamination of pipes or intercoolers they can generally be removed and cleaned out for a small additional cost. Water radiators contaminated with oil are unable to be cleaned and will always require replacement.

GOLD, SILVER & BRONZE SEAL UNITS

In most cases we recommend Silver Seal units as replacement as they offer the best value for most customers. Gold Seal units are brand new/remanufactured and are usually considerably more expensive. We generally only supply these if insurance or warranty companies are paying the bill and cost is not a factor. Bronze Seal units are fully tested and offer a more affordable option but come with a shorter 6-month warranty and are generally supplied only to motor traders. Bronze Seal units generlly come complete with ancillary items such as manifolds, turbochargers, injectors etc which means there are rarely an extras required. If we receive an order for a Silver Seal unit and on arrival it then requires extra items which could increase the price to the customer we reserve the right to replace it with a Bronze Seal unit complete with ancillaries at no extra cost. We will also extend the warranty to 12 months the same as a Silver Seal Warranty.

COLLECTION & RECOVERY

We will endeavour to collect all vehicles with our own fleet of recovery trucks. Our vehicles cater for the acceptance of the majority of standard road vehicles. However, we are aware that certain vehicles may have lowered/modified suspension and bumpers with spoilers/splitters fitted or aftermarket exhausts etc. If your vehicle is in this category, we advise that any such components are removed prior to collection and we are notified. We cannot be held responsible for any damage caused for a non-standard vehicle collection or delivery.

LPG CONVERSIONS

We will happily accept vehicles in for repair that have LPG conversions in-situ subject to prior notification. However, must be advised that we are not authorised LPG installers. We will remove and re-fit the system in place as it was, but we do not have the facility to test. We therefore insist that upon return of your vehicle you immediately take it to an authorised LPG installer and have the system fully tested and re-certified prior to use. We will not be held responsible for any issues with an LPG system and will only accept your vehicle if you agree to these terms.

CUSTOMER CHECKS:
When you receive your vehicle back you will be required to check your oil and water levels daily for the first 7 days. After that we recommend weekly checks of all levels and recommend servicing of your vehicle as per manufacturers guidelines or every 12 months / 12000 miles for the majority of vehicles.

PAYMENT:
We do not expect payment in full ‘up-front’ like most of our competitors. Payment methods accepted are Credit/Debit Cards (excluding AMEX), Bank Transfer, Cash and PayPal. Credit/Debit card payments can only be accepted by chip and pin if over £100. We do not accept cheques. If we are delivering the vehicle back to you payment must be received prior to delivery unless agreed by prior arrangement. 

You will notice from our website that we are very specific about what is covered and what is not, this is because we always try to avoid unexpected extras wherever possible, we discuss at length the problem with your vehicle before it arrives. We do this to make our customers aware of worst-case scenario situations. Any sensible person would ring around for quotes, we urge you to do this too, but please, ask for the quote in writing and discuss what the price will be if your old engine cannot be reconditioned or if it is likely that other parts will be required. We will always upon request furnish you with a full written quotation for your peace-of-mind.

WHAT HAPPENS IF AFTERYOU HAVE FIXED MY VEHICLE IT DEVELOPS A FAULT?
This is probably the most important question. If after your vehicle has been returned to you it develops a fault we will either pay for it to be repaired locally if it’s a minor fault (we pay £35 per hour). All works must be quoted for and approved by us in writing prior to being carried out and the garage must confirm that the cost will guarantee resolution of the problem. We will pay a maximum of £25 for a diagnostic report.  For more involved faults, we will collect the vehicle. We will also return your vehicle after rectification.  After 28 days our warranty does not cover collection or recovery, only parts and labour. In this case we would expect you to return the vehicle to us (if driveable). If the vehicle is non-driveable then you must get recovered to us or we can collect for you at a specially discounted rate when we are in your area. Nowadays most car owners benefit from free breakdown cover via their bank or insurance company. If this is the case, please ensure that cover will relay your vehicle to the garage of your choice. We recommend the AA as they also offer a warranty which will pay up to £500 towards any repairs. The link to this can be found on the home page of our website.
