Used Honda Engines and Transmissions in Jamaica

Car repairs, like everything else in our society, have become incredibly costly. Replacing an engine on an older car doesn't offer you the luxury of having it paid for by an insurance company or a warranty system. Your only option is to replace it yourself. That can be costly, so it only makes sense to get the very best value that you can for your dollar.

Used engines make good sense. Recycling of any kind makes good sense but particularly those things which don't break down well, and last for ages should be used and reused until they outlive that usefulness. The cost is much lower, the company who sells it will usually offer some type of a warranty, and you're acting in an environmentally responsible way.

What's not to love about all those things?

When you're exploring the purchase of a used Honda engine or transmission in Jamaica, try to contact a company that specializes in them. You may pay a few dollars more for the engine but they will have an expansive inventory of used Honda engines & transmissions and most likely have what you need.

Not all used Honda engines are created equal. The year and make of your Honda will determine which used Honda engine that you're going to need. Make sure that you have that information available to you when you call or visit the dealer. Copy down the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) to take with you or offer to your online dealer. This too will tell them exactly what you've got and exactly what you need.

There are a few tips and tricks to buying a good used Honda engine. Ask questions of the used engine dealer about what kind of warranty they offer, if any and what kind of testing has been done on the used engine prior to its sale.

Check to see if they offer an extended warranty on the used engine. Many companies will offer that and it may be worth your while to buy one.

Take note of the mileage on the current engine in your car.If you're going to replace it, it only makes good sense to get a used Honda engine that has less miles on it than the current engine.

The major difference between Honda transmissions and other automotive transmissions is that Honda does not use planetary gears. Honda uses individual and traditional gears which are similar to the manual transmission. Each gear is engaged by a different hydraulic clutch.

The design of this transmission is such that the shift from the second to third gear is achieved by one clutch and with no release; this transmission has no sprag clutch which reduces the need to brake and this in turn brings down the wear and tear on the engine.

Honda introduced this transmission system in its vehicles to avoid any patents violation since most of the patents for automatic transmission were held by other companies.

The automatic transmission in the Honda, as in other cars, is made of high tech components. Though most traditional auto mechanics would not advise you to replace any part with a non-Honda one, a lot of people are doing just that for improved performance of their vehicle.

So if you, as an owner of a Honda, are not averse to risk you can reap the reward too by investing in a used Honda transmission in Jamaica from Superior Auto Parts.

Deal with a reputable business or company . Sadly enough, dealing with an individual when you purchase a used engine doesn't always work out. If you are working with a company or business, they have a reputation to uphold and will be a better deal for you. Quite often individuals won't refund your money, and don't care if you're happy with what you purchased. With a business you have some means of recourse.
