A typical car engine has around 200 parts, all of which must be maintained and replaced if they stop functioning correctly. As such, car engine repair is a broad term that covers a wide range of problems.

Signs of potential engine issues include loss of power, illumination of the check engine light, a knocking noise, excessive or discoloured exhaust smoke, overheating and frequent stalling. If an engine fault repair is needed, a mechanic will often conduct a diagnostic test first to determine which component is to blame.
