The South Coast is about two to two and a half hours from our Grays, Essex workshop, via the M25 and then the M3, M23 or A3 depending on where you are. That is too far to nurse a sick engine, so we come to you. We collect the vehicle from anywhere between Kent and Dorset, fit the engine here, and deliver it back.
One company, start to finish
We supply the engine and we fit it. We do not sell engines on their own, because when one business supplies the engine and another fits it, any fault turns into an argument about who is responsible. You get one written quote, one warranty and one phone number. The warranty is 12 months or 12,000 miles, parts and labour, and the price you are quoted includes VAT.
How it works from the South Coast
- Fixed written quote. Enter your registration or call us. We confirm the exact engine and the full price, including collection and delivery, in writing.
- We collect the vehicle from your address, either ourselves or using our appointed transport contractor.
- Fitted and tested at our Grays workshop, with fluids, filters, adaptation and a documented road test.
- Delivered back to you once the job is signed off.
Collection & delivery charge: quoted individually, based on the distance from our Grays workshop. It is agreed with you in writing as part of your quote, and never added to the bill later.
Is it the engine, or something cheaper?
Before you commit to a replacement, it is worth being sure. A failed injector, turbo or sensor can look like a dead engine. Our diagnostics are £75 flat, deducted in full from your invoice if the work goes ahead, and if the engine can be repaired without replacement, we will tell you. When it does need replacing, the usual suspects are the 3.0 TDV6 (306DT), the 4.4 SDV8 (448DT) and the 5.0 V8 (AJ133).
