Replacing engine with a recon

Postby skipoman » Wed Mar 25, 2020 1:43 pm

Hi. Im about to replace my 2.2 rwd 2014 engine with a recon and will fit all bits onto recon engine (anyone no a good supplier they can recomend?).....Im told I will need to get recon engine reprogrammed.Is that right? Even though Im using all parts of off original engine.

99% I'd say that you'll want new injectors unless you are 100% that it wasn't fuel related that blew the engine. But at the last you should get them checked.

You should still clear the learned values for fuel etc.

It'll be euro 5 so there's not really much programming to be done, if you do use the injectors again you can fit them in the same number cylinder that you removed them from so then you won't need to program them in.

Thank you. Ive had them checked. Two are ok.
Whats learned valve? I think my fault is piston related and yes was thinking about the injectors being the cause beforehand from what Ive read. When I start to rebuild the engine what else shall I renew?

Learned values, in euro 5 you can clear them to make it start again. It's a software think.

The main things are engine and injectors, you can buy forscan to program the basics in.
