Engine Replacement

[Chatty]

I'm having problem with my car Nissan NV AD resort indeed. It seems like it had no power to speed up. I have to spend time for a while. I went to see the handy man.. he said it might have automatic gear problem. I have to spend about 1xxxx for that. grrrrr... but it would be better if I replace the whole engine. It's 3x,xxx baht.

Have you ever done the engine replacement? Any problem after that?

I really really dumb, don't know anything about car engine... I don't know how to take care of it. I just know how to drive.

hmm please don't tell me to by a new car, cuz I will do it next year. Plus my dad asked me not to sell this one... he love it so much.

There is a HUGE place in Nonthaburi that is filled with second hand car engines, and is well known at least by taxi drivers as *the place* to replace engines.

Soi Sirichai...know it?

That's as far as my engine replacement knowledge goes.

gear and engine separate issue.

if a car was a bicycle the gears are those things in the back that help you when you want to go faster and you are the engine.

if the gears break, you dont get new person to ride the bike.

ok na?

you can google "no power when speed up" and see what the online ppl have said about the issue

Thks kha

hmmm Never heard about it before kha. I will go to take a look.

some guru said there is no 1600 cc. in market. So i must choose 1500 or 1800 cc. That's a big headache for me.

If there is a 1600 cc in Thailand, it's on Soi Sirichai. You will see what I mean

it could be many thing

your transmittion may need to be reuilt

or

your engine has no compression

or

could be fuel supply problem

b4 you buy new engine

SEE AN EXPERT!!!

or you have to do the same thing again and pay more $$$

trust me on this I rebuilt 2 of my bikes...

You can get an entire engine replaced for 30,000??? That seems like a pretty good price to me, but i would still follow up on whatever the taxi drivers do... they would probably know..

go to a real mechanic who knows what he is doing. a simple compression test on the engine will tell you if it is going bad.

kind of fishy that he fixs transmission then says it might be the engine.

i dont know the car, dont know the age or mileage of it so its hard to tell what is wrong online.

simple things like a tune up, disconeted vacum line, dissconeted spark plug or the valves might be leaking oil, maybe cam is going bad. or ignition or computer problem.

best bet go to a real mechanic and get a second opinion ---not a handyman

would you replace your heart on the word of a first aid technician or go to a real doctor

[toma]

trocks69 is dead right!

btw.. I am pretty sure the gear is not the problem.

Nong 1 kha, when you do that engine replacement, please keep in mind that many (up to most) engines you see in those local car shops are secound-handed engines from Japan. (my uncle is in the business, btw but he doesn't sell to private). You have to find a shop that you can trust or get someone who knows about engine to help you.

Get a second opinion na kha. Don't jump in any "good" offer too quickly.
