Engine Overhaul in Burbank, Los Angeles

Is your engine knocking, burning oil, or losing compression? If repairs aren’t enough, it may be time for a complete engine overhaul. At Calstate Auto Repair in Burbank, we provide expert full and partial engine rebuilds for Los Angeles drivers who want to extend their vehicle’s life instead of replacing it.


What Is an Engine Overhaul?

An engine overhaul involves disassembling the engine, inspecting all components, and replacing or reconditioning the worn-out parts. This can include:

  • Pistons and piston rings
  • Bearings and seals
  • Cylinder head and valves
  • Gaskets and timing components
  • Oil pump and water pump
  • Cleaning and machining of key engine surfaces

We restore your engine to near-new condition for a fraction of the cost of a full replacement.


Signs You May Need an Overhaul

  • Knocking or ticking noises
  • Blue or white smoke from exhaust
  • Loss of power or acceleration
  • Burning oil between oil changes
  • Very low compression in one or more cylinders
  • High mileage combined with engine problems

We’ll perform a thorough diagnosis first to confirm if a rebuild is necessary—or if a smaller repair will fix it.


Full vs. Partial Overhaul

  • Partial overhaul may include only top-end (head, valves, gaskets) work
  • Full overhaul includes both top-end and bottom-end (crankshaft, pistons, bearings) reconditioning

We’ll explain your options clearly so you can make the best decision for your car and budget.
