Engine Maintenance
Keeping regular maintenance of your car is of the utmost importance and will help you avoid this massive problem. Even if you do take proper care of your car there are still are a myriad of problems that can occur that will require engine removal and replacement. One such situation is if you overheat your engine and distort the cylinder walls. The amount of space between your pistons and cylinder walls is extremely small. If the space is widened, the pistons will no longer be able to adequately provide power to your engine.
If you find that your car is not providing adequate oil pressure this may be another cause for alarm. If your engine has inadequate oil pressure, you are no longer able to provide proper lubrication to the engine. Excessive oil consumption can also be a sign that your engine may need to be replaced. In such a situation, oil may be leaking into the combustion chamber of your engine, which can lead to engine failure.
Another situation where you may need to replace the engine in your vehicle is if there is large scale mechanical failure. An example of this is if a valve falls into the engine. Another example is if you have an engine with a timing belt, the belt can break which may lead to a piston hitting the walls of your engine. This is another potential scenario where complete engine removal and replacement may be necessary.
