Exchange: The Solution That Keeps Downtime to a Minimum

This B38B15A engine is sold on an exchange basis: the reconditioned unit is dispatched first, so the garage is never left without an engine during the job. The old unit – block intact – is only collected after the reconditioned engine has been delivered and fitted, ensuring the vehicle is not left standing while you wait. Return of the old unit is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

A deposit is taken at the time of ordering and refunded once the reconditioned engine has been delivered, fitted, and the old unit returned and received.

A Fully Reconditioned Engine

This reconditioned engine is completely stripped, cleaned and inspected before being rebuilt. Worn internal components are replaced according to their condition, with full details provided on the quote. The engine is then reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested before dispatch.

The engine referenced B38B15A is supplied as a bare engine; the precise details of what is included with this reference are set out on the quote.

Warranty and Payment

This engine carries a 24-month parts warranty, subject to fitting by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over multiple instalments, in up to 10 instalments.

EDEN BOITES is with you every step of the way, from quote to collection of the old unit.
