2021 Kia Forte

Loud Noise, Revving but Not Moving, Then Stalled Out

Loud Noise, Revving but Not Moving, Then Stalled Out

What the customer reported

The vehicle owner reported that the engine started making some loud noise, and when they tried to accelerate the rpms were moving but the vehicle was not moving faster. Once pulled over the vehicle stalled out, and it would start again but was still making noise, with no lights or notifications on the dash and no oil leak.

What we found and did

The vehicle came to our Haines City shop, where the technician started with an initial assessment and then performed a teardown. The team replaced the engine block assembly with a new OEM unit, replaced the oil pan gasket, and refreshed the fluids with new engine installation fluids.

FAQ

Engine Replacement in Haines City: questions answered

Answered by our 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.
