FAQ

From where we source our products?

Should you choose engines from local sources or those directly imported from South Korea?

Korean Engines (Pty) Ltd ensures that 100% of all products sold are imported directly from South Korean manufacturing facilities.

It is difficult to determine whether locally sourced or imported engines will deliver the best performance, but imported goods are highly recommended for customers. Engines from local sources often originate from shady corners of the market; therefore, there is a high chance that they have been treated by an unqualified mechanic. There is also the danger of police clearance, which may result in criminal charges.

How do you tell whether the product(s) you would like to purchase are low mileage or not?

Is there a difference between automatic and manual engines?

The best way is to check whether the engine was imported directly from countries that have their own car manufacturers or not. You can also compare the sizes of other countries with that of South Africa. Typically, smaller countries are more likely to produce low mileage products. For example, South Korea is roughly 11 times smaller than South Africa.

No, the type of the engine is irrelevant. This is because: In order to function, an engine must be connected to a gearbox, which can be automatic or manual.

How do you tell the difference between an automatic gearbox and a manual one?

Should you choose an engine originally connected to an automatic gearbox or one originally connected to a manual gearbox?

Look out for the flywheel, pressure plates and clutch discs in a manual gearbox. Automatic gearboxes always have a torque converter.

You should choose an engine originally connected to an automatic gearbox. An automatic gearbox automatically changes according to engine revolutions. Under normal circumstances, the engine would probably not reach the critical point.

How do you check for an overheated engine or blown gasket?

Slide your finger into the exhaust and collect a sample of the oily dirt. If the engine is overheated or the gasket is blown, the dirt would smell of burning.
