Questions about engine repair.
What are signs my engine needs repair?
Signs include the check engine light, rough idling, loss of power, unusual noises such as knocking or ticking, smoke from the exhaust, or a strong burning smell. Catching it early costs less than waiting until it gets worse.
How much does engine repair cost in Newark, NJ?
Costs vary depending on the repair needed. A tune-up runs $100 to $200. A timing belt replacement runs $300 to $700. We run a diagnostic and give you a written estimate before starting any work.
Is it worth repairing an engine or should I replace the car?
It depends on the repair cost versus the vehicle's value. Our technicians will walk you through the numbers so you can make the right call for your budget, and we don’t push work you don’t need.
