My 2004 Durango threw a rod through the oil pan at 140,000 miles. I talked to the dealer and fell out of my chair when they gave me the price.
I decided that my son and I would drop and engine in. An internet search yielded Engineman in Braselton. I intended to just buy a remanufactured engine, but while talking to Pete, I felt comfortable with them doing the job. The price was much more in line with what I expected.. They towed it from the dealer to their place, and in little more than I week I had the Durango back running great.. I never met them until I picked up the vehicle, but I was well taken care of. Do not hesitate to let these people help you !!
In early January my Dodge Ram 1500 with only 86,000 miles had an issue with the engine. I had the truck towed to a Dodge dealership and the truck was diagnosed with needing the right side head replaced. Because of the cost to replace one head at the dealership, no warranty help and the concern the issue may reoccur I searched out another solution. The solution I found was Engine Man. I talked to Pete and he gave me an estimate to replace the engine with a remanufactured engine which was close to the same price the dealership was going to charge to replace one head. Pete had the truck towed from the dealership and after receiving it at his shop diagnosed the problem to ensure that replacing the engine was the best option vs just replacing the heads. I chose to replace the engine and within a few weeks I had my truck back and running like a new one. They promised to call if they found anything that would be an extra charge over the original quote. The only call I received was for a part that the Dodge dealership had broken when they had the truck. No suprises, this is a great honest place with excellent service. I would highly recommend them for any engine work.
I contacted Engine Man at the end of March 2013 in search of a low mileage engine with the intentions of having the installation done at a local repair shop. However, after speaking with Pete and being offered by far the best deal for the motor, labor and warranty, I choose to allow Engine Man to complete the engine installation as well as other miscellaneous repairs to my vehicle early April 2013.
As a female, I am always wary of mechanics who speak to me condescendingly or slyly; however, I was very comfortable dealing with Engine Man and all of my questions were answered thoroughly and respectfully. Pete informed me of issues that were discovered during repair, but I was not pressured into authorizing any additional work other than what I requested and we previously discussed. He was fair, knowledgeable, candid and professional in customer service.
I highly recommend Engine Man not only as a resource for a low mileage motor, but for repairs as well. To date, May 2013, my vehicle is running well with no issues of overheating. The warranty offer is superb and Pete patiently addressed all of my questions regarding what is entailed. I look forward to returning to Engine Man for any of my future maintenance needs.
It is worth noting that Engine Man is roughly 45 minutes from my residence and worth every mile for quality engine repair servicing.
I had a very bad engine leak on my 2001 civic EX (177k milleage) a couple of months ago and I went to a random car shop. The price of fixing the engine offered to me was very high and after some research and consulting with a car mechanic on my car condition, he recommended that I replace the entire engine if work ever needed to be done on my car. What a headache, I needed an engine shipped and the right car shop to do the job properly, fast at affordable price and I desperately needed all in one solution at decent price.
Come Engineman, with all in one solution to all my problems at affordable cost and fast. I looked around for slightly used engine and I would say that nothing come close to the low price and service offered by engineman. After comparing the price of fixing the engine offered by random car shop with engineman, I was amazed of a great deal of slightly used engine part (50K millage) + labor cost provided by engineman. Not only Engineman replaced the engine at affordable price but other parts of my car such as air filters, belts, etc very fast (only 3-4 days) at affordable cost. I also decided to fix the transmission on my car. When I opened the hood of my car, I was very pleased. Thank you engineman, I will definetely recommend engineman to anyone that has engine, transmission or other car problems. Very very satisfied with the work being done by engine man.
