Porsche Engine Rebuilds

You should have regular Porsche servicing performed on your vehicle to keep it in good working order, but part of the pleasure of owning one of these cars is enabling it to evolve with tuning and upgrading.

With small investments, upgrades to worn parts or systems can deliver impressive results. Whether it’s simply keeping your Porsche in top condition for as long as possible, or whether you want to boost performance, get in touch with the team at Des Golden Specialist Cars – we carry out Porsche engine upgrades and rebuilds at our workshop in Cork.

How do I know if my Porsche engine needs to be rebuilt?

The most common reasons for having your vehicle’s engine rebuilt are high mileage, performance issues, mechanical failure and as part of preventative maintenance. And some tell-tale signs indicate an engine rebuild is on the cards such as leaking oil, excessive smoke from the exhaust and rattling when you start the car. If you notice any of these, do get in touch with our team straight away.

How do you rebuild a Porsche engine?

There are several stages involved in the engine rebuilding process making it a complex task that should only be entrusted to specialist technicians such as those at Des Golden Specialist Cars.

We begin by inspecting the engine to evaluate its overall health and to pinpoint any obvious problems before removing the engine from the vehicle and taking it apart. At this stage, we can carry out a closer inspection of each component, give them a good clean and assess whether they can be repaired or need complete replacement. The components which most commonly require replacing are pistons and rings, seals and gaskets, and timing chains and belts.

After repairs and replacements are complete, we reassemble the engine with meticulous care ensuring that all manufacturer torque specifications are adhered to, start the rebuilt engine up and check that it is operating correctly and that there are no leaks or unwelcome noises.

Once you’ve had your Porsche engine rebuilt at Des Golden Specialist Cars:

• You can drive away in the knowledge that the rebuilt engine will last at least as long as the original and often longer
• You’ll benefit from and enjoy enhanced performance from your vehicle
• And, you’ll have increased its resale value
