I have a knocking noise coming from the crank of my 94 wrx wagon i am wondering if anybody knows where i can get a wrx engine from??
|
is it just the noise?, check your water pump if so. I had a scare with a knocking noise, I was getting prices for engines etc, took it to a specialist and they said the only thing they'd do to confirm it was gone was take the belts off. They agreed it did sound terminal, got a call later saying it was the water pump, they took the belts off and ran the engine, no noise.
To say I was relieved was an understatement. Really was a knocking noise too. As far as getting it rebuilt though, you should get emails from people (like I did) who will see this post, that is if you haven't allready |
James good on ya, great news for you.
Hope I'm that lucky. Listen to this one. Picked up my STi 4 last thursday evening, two hours later knocking under the bonnet. Ya feking worse nightmare or what. Been rec'd a guy from rivett autos - Mike. He's taking a peek tomorrow. Prey for me!! |
Its a Knock and a rattle! got 118,000 on the clock but i will try what you said!!
Could anyone tell me how much the parts will cost me to rebuild it?? |
Both of you sounds like it could be big ends; if it is there are a number of options though it would mean a rebuild starting from £2200 all in to do the work........
|
First off, the engine cannot be run with the Water pump belt off (it is rotated by the timing belt) i dont mean to contridict you but it was the garage that told you that anyway. Secondly, a replacement engine (if needed) can be sourced for much less than £2200 so i think it is a bit unfair to worry people with figures like that. Admmittedly the replacement engine will not be new but 80% of people replace engines with second hand units, a rebuild is not always the way forward financially.

Preying didn't help too much.
My big end has gone. Mike from Rivett says he could source me a recon engine from £1200 plus fitting costs. From the numbers floating around that seems pretty good. Anyone with a better idea? |
tweenirob Sti v4 second hand engines are like rocking horse poo at the moment. I know I've been trying to get one for the last few days
Sourcing a new block would be circa £1000.00, sourcing a short block with engine parts circa £2350-2650 (all figures plus vat) With labour ontop......... |
DC if you need help with costs give me a bell 07771767874
