Engine Reconditioning Services
What Is Engine Reconditioning?
Engine reconditioning is the process of restoring an engine to good working order by repairing or replacing selected worn parts. Unlike a full rebuild, reconditioning doesn’t involve stripping down and replacing every component. Instead, it focuses on fixing the areas that are underperforming while keeping the healthy parts of the engine intact.
This makes reconditioning a cost-effective solution if your engine is showing signs of wear but doesn’t require a complete overhaul.

Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions about our engine diagnostics? We’ve answered the most common ones below to help you understand how the service works and what to expect.
What’s the difference between an engine rebuild and an engine recondition?
An engine rebuild involves a complete strip-down, replacement of all worn or damaged parts, and reassembly to manufacturer standards — essentially returning the engine to “like new” condition. An engine recondition, on the other hand, is less extensive: it focuses on repairing or replacing only certain parts (such as gaskets, bearings, or pistons) to get the engine back to good working order, but not to the same “factory fresh” level as a full rebuild.
How long does engine reconditioning take?
Most reconditioning jobs take 5–10 working days, depending on the extent of work and parts required.
Is reconditioning reliable?
Yes — when carried out by specialists using OEM-approved parts, reconditioning can significantly extend engine life and improve performance.
Do you use new parts in a rebuild?
All worn, damaged, or out-of-spec components are replaced with OEM-approved parts. Where possible, we recondition components to manufacturer standards.
Will reconditioning fix all engine problems?
Reconditioning addresses the most common wear-related issues but may not be suitable if your engine has severe internal damage. In such cases, a rebuild or replacement is recommended.
Do you provide warranty on reconditioned engines?
Yes, all our reconditioning work is covered by warranty for your peace of mind.

What Our customers say
EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 2014 Range Rover sport engine went bang on the motorway 7 weeks ago. Not knowing what to do or who to trust I came across Aiden at JLR Windsor online. He quoted a rough price over the phone. I recovered the car to him. He reconditioned the engine in 6 days. They provided 6 months warranty. Very smooth process the engine genuinely sounds so much better than when I bought the car 3 years ago. I’ve been driving 5 weeks no issues at all. Just been back for the 1000 mile service which he also included in the initial price. Top top guys. And if you have any doubt all you need to do is visit their workshop and when you see the amount of range rovers and jaguars parked up you’ll know how good these guys are.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My low mileage Discovery Sport suffered the dreaded timing chain snapping that is well documented on JLR Ingenium 2.0 litre diesel engines. I contacted Aden after seeing a recommendation on a Land Rover forum, and was immediately given a fixed quote. He even offered to help organise a transport company to get my car to their workshop. I was sent updates throughout the rebuild process, with photos of the damage caused, and then later on, of the newly rebuilt engine before it was reconnected. The whole thing took 11 working days from the time my car reached them to it being ready for pick up. The engine sounds smooth as anything. Absolutely amazing, and excellent value when you compare to the costs that JLR dealers happily quote. I really recommend these guys, couldn't be happier.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got my peugeot engine done.
