Is this an unusual request?

[nilejackson]

I dont really know if my engine is shot.

But if god forbid anything drastic was to happen to my engine what type of prices am i looking for for a replacement.

I would obviously want to keep it Auto and i would wanting it installing. kept at a 998cc?

Any ideas of where it could be fitted and how long the process takes.

Im not to mechanically minded so please bare that in mind when reading my simple post!

Thank you Nile

its hard one to answer in a way its a how long is a piece of string kinda question

Depends how much you can pick one up for?

I saw a brand new 1275 automatic engine recently on Ebay for £600 but no gearbox

A few months ago i saw a brand new gearbox for £450 those sort of things don't come up very often but its a case of being in the right place at the right time

Then again there are these

pricey but how many are left these days?

If it ever happens though chances are the engine and or gearbox units can be rebuilt so all is not lost

Expect to pay around £800ish for a gearbox rebuild and starting at around £700ish for a standard engine rebuild though the sky is the limit depending on spec of the engine?

If your engine/gearbox is ever beyond repair it can often be more cost affective to buy another low mileage Automatic car complete thats rotten or been written off but with good running gear

Or find one of those delusional lost souls converting from Auto to Manual

And buy their running gear
;D ;D ;D
