Engine Overhaul Service – Restore Your Engine’s Performance with Confidence
Over time, even well-maintained engines can experience wear and reduced performance. At Hera Automotive Centre, we offer professional engine overhaul services to help your vehicle run smoothly, safely, and reliably again.
What is Engine Overhaul?
An engine overhaul (also known as a full engine rebuild) is a comprehensive process that involves:
- Removing the engine from the vehicle
- Inspecting and cleaning all internal components
- Repairing or replacing worn-out parts
- Reassembling the engine to ensure performance close to factory standards
This service is recommended for vehicles that have been in use for many years, especially those exposed to harsh driving conditions or high mileage.
Common Signs Your Engine May Need an Overhaul
You should consider having your engine inspected if you notice:
- Difficult or delayed starting
- Unusual knocking or tapping sounds from the engine
- Excessive smoke from the exhaust
- Rough idling or engine vibrations
- Reduced fuel efficiency or power
- Engine overheating or loss of coolant
Ignoring these symptoms may lead to severe engine damage and higher repair costs down the track. How Much Does Engine Overhaul Cost? The cost of engine overhaul varies depending on vehicle type, condition, and parts required. While we do not offer fixed pricing, our team will assess your vehicle and provide a detailed, obligation-free estimate before any work begins. Our goal is to offer competitive rates with no unexpected costs.
What’s Included in an Engine Overhaul?
An overhaul involves removing the engine from the vehicle, disassembling all components, inspecting them in detail, and replacing or refurbishing parts as needed. At Hera, we follow a thorough and methodical process to bring your engine back to optimal condition.
During the engine overhaul, we inspect and service:
- Valve guides and crankshaft bearings

- Radiator and water pump
- Carburetor (if applicable)
- Fuel tank and oil reservoir

- Engine mounts and rubber bushings
We also check and balance all related systems to ensure consistent performance:

- Fuel injection system
- Ignition system and spark timing

Many of these components, if neglected, can cause further engine damage. A full overhaul not only repairs but also protects your vehicle in the long run.
