Engine Repair

Engine Repair and Overhaul in Alanya

The engine is the most expensive part of your car, which is why guessing is the worst approach to engine work. At Gökçeoğlu Oto every engine job starts with measurement: nothing is dismantled before a compression test, a leak-down test and a computer scan.

PİSTON

Most engine complaints we see in Alanya do not actually come from the engine itself — they come from the lubrication, cooling or fuel system. Jumping straight to "let's open the engine" usually means a very large bill you did not need. We prove where the problem really is first.

After diagnosis we tell you two things clearly: what is wrong and what the fix will cost. The engine is not opened without your approval. When the work is finished, every removed part is laid out for you and the car is road tested before handover.

Signs that your engine needs attention

If you are experiencing any of the following it is worth having the car checked. If you are not sure, message us on WhatsApp and we will give you an initial assessment over the phone.

  • Knocking, tapping or metallic noise from the engine
  • Blue smoke (burning oil) or white smoke (burning coolant) from the exhaust
  • Oil level dropping quickly, or water mixing into the oil
  • Rough idle, hard starting or stalling
  • Loss of power, the car struggling on hills
  • Check engine light staying on permanently
  • Overheating and bubbles in the radiator coolant

What we do in the engine department

  • Compression and leak-down testing. Pressure in every cylinder is measured. Rings, valves or head gasket — the source is identified before the engine is opened.
  • Cylinder head and gasket replacement. Head skimming, valve grinding and gasket renewal. The most common fix for coolant-oil mixing and overheating.
  • Piston, ring and liner work. On engines burning oil the piston and ring set is renewed, and the block machined if required.
  • Timing belt kit and water pump. Belt or chain, tensioner bearings and water pump are renewed together. A snapped belt destroys the engine, so this is never left late.
  • Crankshaft and big-end bearings. On knocking engines the crank is measured, ground if needed, and the bearing set replaced.
  • Full engine overhaul. The engine is stripped and cleaned, every clearance measured, and all worn parts renewed to factory specification.
  • Turbocharger inspection and replacement. For power loss and smoke complaints the boost pressure is measured; repair or replacement is then recommended.

Our pricing policy: We do not quote a price before diagnosis is complete, and we do not start work after it without your approval. The work to be done and the parts costs are sent to you in writing, item by item.

Frequently asked questions

How long does engine repair take?
Cylinder head work usually takes 2–4 days and a full overhaul 5–10 days. Parts availability and engine condition affect this. When you leave the car we give you an estimated completion date in writing.
Should I repair the engine or replace it?
Compression readings and block condition decide this. If the block is sound, an overhaul is almost always more economical. After measuring we give you the cost of both options and leave the decision to you.
Can you quote a price without opening the engine?
An exact price requires opening the engine, but after testing we give you a realistic range. If we find something unexpected once it is open, we call you before continuing.
How long will the engine last after an overhaul?
A properly rebuilt engine with regular oil changes runs trouble-free for many years. The first 1,000 km after an overhaul is a running-in period; we explain how to drive it when you collect the car.
