The crankshaft is a critical component of the engine, responsible for converting the linear motion of the pistons into rotational motion that drives the wheels. It ensures smooth power delivery and balance. Without a properly functioning crankshaft, the motor can’t operate efficiently. Timely crankshaft replacement in Dubai is essential to keep your vehicle performing at its best in the harsh city driving conditions.
Signs You Need a Crankshaft Replacement
Because it plays such a central role in your engine's operation, even minor issues with the crankshaft can cause noticeable performance problems. Key warning signs include:
- Unusual noises: Knocking, grinding, or rattling noises from the engine bay may indicate internal damage, possibly related to the crankshaft.
- Oil leaks: A faulty crankshaft seal or worn bearings may result in oil leaks, which reduce lubrication and compromise engine performance.
- Loss of engine power: If the crankshaft isn't turning efficiently, you'll experience sluggish acceleration and reduced power.
- Engine won't start or run intermittently: Severe crankshaft damage often prevents the engine from starting or causes it to run erratically.
- Loss of compression in the cylinders: Crankshaft damage affects piston movement, resulting in a drop in compression and overall engine efficiency.
- Unusual vibrations: Excessive vibrations while driving may point to an unbalanced or faulty crankshaft.
- Damaged crankshaft bearings: Worn or faulty bearings cause internal friction and require immediate attention.
- Unstable engine speed: Fluctuating RPMs or erratic engine speed can signal crankshaft issues.
- Ignition system problems: With ignition timing dependent on the crankshaft position sensor, crankshaft issues are a common cause of misfires.
If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to have your engine inspected by a qualified mechanic. Replacing your crankshaft on time can prevent further damage and restore your engine’s performance.

Our Crankshaft Replacement Process
Replacing a crankshaft is a complex and precise procedure that requires skilled hands and meticulous attention to detail. Here’s how our expert mechanics handle the process:
- Diagnosis: We conduct a detailed inspection with advanced diagnostic tools to confirm the crankshaft issue and assess damage.
- Component removal: After confirming the need for replacement, key engine parts are removed to access the crankshaft area.
- Engine disassembly: Depending on the model, the engine is disassembled to reach the crankshaft, ensuring no damage to reusable parts.
- Crankshaft removal and installation: The damaged crankshaft is carefully removed and inspected for any cracks or wear. A new crankshaft and bearings are installed, ensuring correct alignment and clearances.
- Reassembly: The engine is reassembled with all components torqued to manufacturer specifications.
- Oil and coolant flushing: Fresh oil and coolant are added to ensure proper lubrication and cooling.
- Final inspection and testing: A thorough check for leaks and unusual noises is performed before returning the vehicle.
We aim to return your car in top condition, delivering reliable performance and complete peace of mind.
What Does The Cost of Replacing a Crankshaft Depend On?
The cost of crankshaft work can vary significantly depending on several key factors. While swapping out just the seal is usually less expensive, a full crankshaft replacement is a more complex job that involves detailed work on the engine. The main factors affecting cost include:
- Car make and model: Luxury or high-performance cars usually require specialized parts and additional labor, increasing overall costs.
- Engine type: V6, V8, or turbocharged engines tend to be more complex and time-consuming to work on, which raises both parts and expenses.
- Extent of damage: If only the front crankshaft seal is leaking, the repair is relatively simple. But if the crankshaft itself is damaged, the replacement becomes more extensive and costly.
- Parts availability: OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are typically more expensive than aftermarket alternatives. The availability of the correct crankshaft or seal also impacts the final price.
