Engine change is good sign

[pwuser156588696465]

I am thinking to buy used car but whenever I go pakwheel and other media so I see many car in add "engine change" so what you think this is a good sign because people says 660 engine normally change after 4 or 5 years this is a good thing new engine mean more fuel average...

What you think how many years 660 engine can be show good performance?

I would prefer a high mileage that's been maintained over engine change.

Reason being, new engine history is unknown, new engine (whether full replacement or rebuild) quality is unknown, repair job quality (desi ustaad) is always questionable. Why was the engine changed in the first place? Lack of maintenance? Cheap parts?

I have 9 yr old 660 turbo, original engine, no issues alhamdulillah. Still going strong because it has been maintained well.

The only way I personally would be happy with a replacement engine would be: the replacement was in excellent condition, low mileage and the work was done properly.

More experienced members can chime in on this, as these are my own preferences.

Usually engine change is because the owners were morons and had oil changes done every 30,000 kms rather than 6000 or 8000, air filters never changed because “expensive” coolant drained and straight tap water used because “expensive”

In the end they get the cheapest garbage scrap engine and sell it as the car is brand new.

Add terms like 1 owner, foji owned etc etc as required.

Don't forget to add " engine is water throwing" especially in winters. Lol

660cc engines can last for a good time that is if it's maintained and not pushed hard. My shitbox mira is still running on it's original engine after how much abuse this car suffered through 3 previous owners.
