Occasionally, it is also performed on worn engines with higher mileage to restore them back to their factory condition. During an overhaul, your mechanic disassembles the engine and then evaluates the condition of the internal components to identify the source of the problems and fix them. Internal parts such as the piston rings, bearings, gaskets, and camshaft may be replaced during an overhaul, though it depends on their condition and what the source of the problem is.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"FW0wCl-O7oY\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Can Engine Oil Help Prevent Carbon Build Up?\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FW0wCl-O7oY?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your mechanic will also clean the surfaces of the engine and its parts to remove carbon build-ups that will decrease performance. Lastly, your mechanic will recondition the internal surfaces of the engine cylinders to ensure the piston rings form a proper seal with the cylinder walls. Some of the issues that may require an engine overhaul involve:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A drop in engine performance;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cracked, leaking, or broken engine components;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A reduction in engine oil levels even when no leaks are detected;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frequent overheating of the engine.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Top Overhaul\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two types of engine overhaul \u2013 a top overhaul and a full overhaul. A top engine overhaul is when the top half of the engine is opened without extracting the whole engine from the engine bay. This process is often done when the problem parts are easier to reach and replace. Common parts replaced during a top overhaul include the cylinder head and head gaskets, valves, valve seal, cylinder screws, and rocker&#8217;s arm.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full Overhaul<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A full engine overhaul is when the whole engine is removed from the car and disassembled. In a full overhaul, the sources of the problems are often hard to reach, hence the need to remove the whole engine. This process requires more time and labor to complete, which is why it costs more than a top overhaul. Common parts replaced during a full overhaul include the crankshaft, piston rings and rods, engine block, bearings, timing belt\/chain set, and other necessary parts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What Is the Cost of a Top and Full Overhaul?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cost of a car engine overhaul varies widely depending on the issue, the parts that need replacing, and the type of overhaul done. The cost of a top overhaul for <\/span><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/buy-car\/proton\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Proton<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/buy-car\/perodua\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perodua<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> cars typically costs around RM800 to RM3,000. On the other hand, the cost of a full overhaul for the same models could start from RM4,000 and above. That said, a proper estimated cost can only be determined after a thorough check on the engine is done.<\/span><br \/>\n<a name=\"b\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Should You Overhaul Your Car Engine?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While some engine issues do not need an overhaul to be fixed, there are times when it\u2019s necessary. An engine overhaul is also more commonly needed on older cars, especially ones over 10 years old or when a car has racked up a lot of mileage. If you notice these problems with your car or if your <\/span><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/item\/car-warning-lights-what-they-mean-part-1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">warning lights<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> turn on for a prolonged period, it\u2019s best to get your car checked so you don\u2019t have bigger problems down the road.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Read:<\/b> <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/item\/car-warning-lights-what-they-mean-part-2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What do Car Warning Lights and Indicators Mean (Part 2)<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. White Exhaust Smoke<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">White exhaust smoke means that the engine oil has entered the cylinder and is burned together with the air-fuel mixture during combustion. This could signify worn-out or broken piston rings. However, don\u2019t mistake this for the white smoke that comes out during the initial start-up early in the morning or after a rainy day. That is usually steam from water condensation that can collect in the exhaust.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Excessive Engine Oil Consumption<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another sign that your car needs an overhaul is excessive <\/span><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/item\/when-to-change-engine-oil\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">engine oil<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> consumption. If you constantly need to top up your engine oil or if your low oil pressure warning light comes on, it could mean you have a leak somewhere in the engine or have worn or damaged piston rings. Faulty piston rings can cause the engine oil to leak into the combustion chamber.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Frequent Engine Overheating<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frequent overheating could mean that there\u2019s a leak in your radiator. However, it could also be caused by a faulty cylinder head gasket which allows the coolant to enter the combustion chamber. An overheating engine is a serious problem that can lead to other mechanical failures. If your engine temperature warning light comes on, make sure to get it checked at the nearest workshop.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Black Exhaust Smoke<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The consistent emission of black smoke is often a sign that your engine overhaul is due. Black smoke is caused by carbon build-up on the pistons and in the intake valves. During combustion, especially when you press the accelerator, this carbon will be spewed out of the exhaust as black smog. The carbon also causes your engine to choke, as combustion will not happen properly. This leads to reduced engine performance and fuel efficiency.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Engine Misfiring and Reduced Engine Performance<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Misfiring in the engine occurs when the air-to-fuel ratio in the engine cylinder is not right or when the air-fuel mixture isn\u2019t ignited properly by the spark plugs. Misfiring could cause your <\/span><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/item\/car-jerking-causes\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">engine to jerk<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> at low revolutions (RPM) or when accelerating, and even cause a drop in engine performance. If the issue is caused by worn-out spark plugs, it\u2019s an easy fix to replace them. However, it can also be caused by worn or cracked pistons and piston rings which will require an engine overhaul.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. Strange Noises from the Engine<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knocking sounds might indicate that there\u2019s too much clearance between the crankshaft and piston rods or that there\u2019s a valve train issue. Rattling sounds might be caused by broken piston rings or worn engine mounts. If your engine makes strange noises, it\u2019s best to get it checked by a professional.

Just make sure to understand the issue and be aware of the cost when you do decide to overhaul your engine. If you have an old car with over 300,000 kilometers of mileage, it might not make sense to overhaul the engine as other parts would also have significant wear and tear. It might even be a better idea to get a new car instead.
