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.
