At Meta Mechanics, we recently completed an extensive engine rebuild on a Range Rover Sport in Dubai. During this in-depth process, our experienced technicians identified several critical issues that were affecting the engine’s performance. Below are the issues we discovered, along with the solutions we provided to bring the engine back to optimal performance:
Issue Found:
- Worn Cylinder Walls
- Issue: The cylinder walls were significantly worn, leading to loss of compression and reduced engine power.
- Solution: We honed and resurfaced the cylinder walls, restoring the proper finish to ensure optimal compression and engine performance.
- Damaged Crankshaft Bearings
- Issue: The crankshaft bearings were showing signs of wear, which could lead to engine knocking and long-term damage.
- Solution: We replaced the damaged crankshaft bearings with high-quality OEM replacements to restore smooth engine rotation and eliminate knocking.
- Faulty Timing Components
- Issue: The timing components, including the timing belt and gears, were worn out and misaligned, risking engine misfire and improper valve timing.
- Solution: We replaced the timing belt, gears, and related components, ensuring proper valve synchronization and preventing further engine timing issues.
- Degraded Pistons and Rings
- Issue: The pistons and piston rings had degraded, leading to excessive oil consumption and poor fuel efficiency.
- Solution: We replaced the pistons and piston rings with upgraded parts to restore proper sealing, enhance combustion efficiency, and reduce oil consumption.
- Blockage in the Oil Passages
- Issue: The oil passages were partially blocked, causing reduced oil flow to critical engine components and increasing the risk of engine damage.
- Solution: We thoroughly cleaned the oil passages to ensure proper oil circulation, promoting adequate lubrication and preventing future blockages or damage.
