Is an Engine Not Being Broken Not Considered a Scrapping Standard?
1 Answers
Generally, when the vehicle reaches 10 years of age, even if the engine is not broken to the point of being irreparable, the vehicle management department will still enforce mandatory scrapping. Regarding engine repair: By replacing parts, the engine can be fixed, but the issue lies in the cost. Components like the cylinder block, cylinder head, crankshaft, and camshaft are relatively expensive, making the replacement costs quite high. Remanufactured engines involve repairing used engines through specific processes, allowing them to be reused with performance and power consumption differing by about 10% compared to original factory engines. Five bad habits that most easily lead to engine scrapping: Driving at high gear with low speed, adding excessive engine oil, using mismatched fuel grades, not warming up the engine or overheating it, and not replacing the timing belt in a timely manner.
