1 Introduction

1.1 Purpose – These Terms govern the provision of Services (defined below) by Engine Union Limited (“we”, “us”) to the customer named on the invoice (“you”).

1.2 Services – We will remove, disassemble and inspect your existing engine, prepare a written damage report with images/video, and recondition the unit as described in §2 unless otherwise agreed in writing.

1.3 Service Process (summary)

  1. Vehicle collection & inspection – We collect your car and carry out a full technical check (turbo, DPF, timing gear, pistons, cylinder head, etc.).
  2. Damage report – Once faults are confirmed you receive a detailed report with images and our recommended course of action.
  3. Up‑front engine payment – If reconditioning is approved, a deposit payment for the engine is due; work then commences.
  4. Failure analysis & advisories – During removal we identify root causes of failure plus any advisory items; if you authorise replacement, we fit the parts free of labour charge (parts at cost).
  5. Non‑recondition-able / out‑of‑scope parts & services – Where a component cannot be reconditioned, or lies outside the scope, it must be replaced or repaired at an additional cost of the part or service alone.
  6. Completion & final payment – On completion the balance of the quotation becomes payable and the vehicle must be collected.
