What Causes Rough Idling and Check Engine Light?

The Problem

The vehicle's check engine light was on, and it ran rough, especially when stopped. Occasionally, the temperature warning would flash before the thermostat returned to normal.

What We Found

The technician conducted an initial assessment and determined that the engine required replacement due to internal issues.

The Fix

The team replaced the engine block assembly with a used engine. They flushed all systems and added new engine installation fluids to ensure optimal performance. An alignment was performed, required due to sub-frame removal during the engine replacement.

The Result

After the repair, the vehicle ran smoothly, and the check engine light was no longer illuminated.

Pro Tip

A check engine light combined with rough idling often indicates serious engine issues. Addressing it promptly can prevent further damage and costly repairs in the future.

FAQ

Engine Replacement in Haines City: questions answered

Answered by our licensed technicians serving Haines City.

How do you decide between a remanufactured and a used engine?

We start with how long you plan to keep the vehicle and what the rest of it looks like. Remanufactured is the lower risk option and costs more, used is the opposite, and both are legitimate depending on your plan for the car. We lay out what each one comes with and let you pick.

How long will my vehicle be down?

It depends on the vehicle and on how quickly the right engine can be sourced, which is the part neither of us controls. Once the engine is located we can give you a real timeline instead of a hopeful one, and if something changes we call you rather than let you wonder.

Is a replacement engine covered by a warranty?

There are two pieces of coverage and you should see both. The engine itself carries whatever the builder or supplier provides, and the labor we perform is covered by our 36 month, 36,000 mile nationwide warranty. We put both in writing with the estimate so there is no guessing later.

Can I see the old engine and what failed?

Yes, and we would rather you did. If a bearing spun or a cylinder is scored, that is something you can look at with your own eyes. Nobody should approve a job this size on our word alone.

Is it ever worth putting a new engine in an older car?

Often, yes. A paid off vehicle you know the history of can be worth keeping, and an engine is usually cheaper than several years of payments. It stops making sense when the rest of the car is tired too, and we will say so if that is what we see.
