Mobile mechanic in Birmingham , 20 years of experience

Hello I have been working as a mechanic for more than 10 years, doing work efficiently and quickly.

“He arrived a little late, around 45 minutes, a call ahead to say he was on his way would have relieved my anxiety. When he arrived he asked me what the problem was. Once I explained he and the guy he was with got straight to work. My work colleagues couldn't believe they were doing the job on my driveway and were very impressed given the work involved. I've given it a few days since the work was done and everything seems to be good! With the new clutch and flywheel, it feels like a new car! I was very impressed and incredibly greatful that Lura was able to do the job. I'd been fobbed off by my usual garage and a couple of other local ones, it's been suggested to me because of the time involved to replace the flywheel. I'd been without a car for 5 weeks before trying this website. I certainly wouldn't hesitate again! The job in total took these guys just over 3 hours. Great work and would very much recommend! Friendly guy and offered me to take a test driver before he left.”

Frequently asked questions about Kia crankshaft repair & replacements

Read our answers to questions about crankshaft repair costs, symptoms and more.

How do you know there is something wrong with the Crankshaft Position Sensor on my Kia?

  • When the 'Check Engine' light on your dashboard is on.
  • When the engine won't start or cuts out during operation.
  • When the engine misfires.
  • When the engine runs rough (a rough idle for example).
  • When the car's fuel consumption is higher than usual.

When should you replace Kia Crankshaft Position Sensor?

As the sensor is located inside the crankcase it is especially prone to deterioration. It can be affected by oil or the significant temperature fluctuations inside the engine. The sensor can, eventually, fail completely, meaning that the engine's ECU is not provided with the information to optimise the combustion process.

In turn this can lead to the fuel injection malfunctioning, preventing the appropriate amount of fuel to reach the engine to combust. It can lead the engine to misfire and run rough as well as cutting out or not starting at all. All leading to higher fuel consumption.

For optimal combustion cycles in the engine it is therefore important to service the crankshaft position sensor as and when stipulated in the guidelines set out by your car's manufacturer. Professional and timely maintenance is essential to prevent further damage of other parts of the engine. Should you experience problems with a crankshaft position sensor, then it is advisable to have it inspected and, if necessary, have the sensor replaced.

What happens during a Crankshaft Position Sensor replacement on my Kia?

  • The mechanic will read the ECU for possible fault codes related to the sensor.
  • The mechanic will inspect the sensor and ancillaries.
  • If necessary, the mechanic will replace the sensor.
  • The mechanic will check the system and will test drive the car to ensure proper operation of the engine.
  • If necessary, the mechanic will make adjustments.

Can local garages offer home collection and delivery for Kia crankshaft repair?

Yes, many local garages are able to offer collection and delivery for a crankshaft repair on your Kia. With ClickMechanic collection & delivery is free if your vehicle is drivable. Once booked a mechanic will pick up the vehicle on the day and time of your choice, do the work, and return the vehicle at a time convenient to you.

Can mobile mechanics do Kia crankshaft repair at my home or office?
