Engine Repair at Benson Alfa Romeo in Greer, South Carolina

Why Engine Repair is Important

Your engine is a critical component of your vehicle that keeps your vehicle moving on the road. The engine provides power to accelerate and turn, navigating the roads of your city to wherever you want to go. When something in your engine breaks, you lose the freedom to go where you want when you want until you fix it, especially if you're looking to avoid making the problem worse.

When You Should Get Engine Repair

The most obvious sign that you need to go in for an engine repair is the "Check Engine" light. This light, a clicking, grinding, or whining sound from the engine, the engine stalling, and more are all signs that you might need to take your vehicle to a repair shop.

The Engine Repair Process

Step 1

When you take your vehicle in for an engine repair, a service technician will first fully inspect the engine to evaluate the problem and determine necessary repairs. Some repairs include replacing a head gasket or belt, sealing an oil pan, and repairing or replacing valves, pistons, connecting rods, bearings, oil pumps, intake manifolds, timing belts, water pumps, and more.

Step 2

After the issue is identified, the technician will make the appropriate repairs.

Step 3

The technician will then confirm that the engine has been repaired and return the vehicle to you!

Cost of Engine Repair

The type and severity of engine issues, as well as what parts need to be repaired or replaced, will determine how much you can expect to pay. The make, model, and availability of parts can also influence the cost. Specific pricing information can be found at our Service Center, where you can also find our current service specials!

Questions to Ask Your Service Technician

• If there are multiple repairs needed, ask your technician what needs to be replaced immediately and what might be able to wait so that you can budget appropriately.

• Sometimes, the necessary repairs will cost more than the vehicle is worth. In this case, you might consider purchasing a new vehicle rather than repairing the current one.

Signs of a Quality Engine Repair

Whatever issue caused you to bring your vehicle for service should be corrected and your concerns should have been addressed. You also shouldn't notice any new issues.
