Core Return Process

A “core” refers to your old engine or transmission, which can often be refurbished or recycled. Understanding this helps you understand the cycle that benefits the environment and your wallet.

All remanufacturers include a core charge to offset their costs, which is like a refundable deposit. The idea is to provide an incentive for the customer to return their old engine after the remanufactured one is installed. Once the old engine is returned, then the core charge is reimbursed. 

You can learn more about core charges and how PPI uses your core here.

Returning your core is simple with PPI. Once your new engine is installed, you can easily schedule a pickup for your old unit. This process is not just convenient but also economical. We waive the core deposit under most conditions, making this an excellent deal for our customers.

Breaking In Your Remanufactured Engine

Even though car engine technology has greatly improved, following a break-in process for your re-manufactured engine is still important. The process is simple and involves driving around at various RPMs without straining the engine. That way, the engine gets eased into its role, giving it time to adjust to your vehicle. Other benefits of breaking in an engine include: 

  • Longer engine life
  • Better fuel economy
  • Better engine performance

If you have a pickup truck with a new engine, the proper way to break it in is to drive it like a passenger car. That means refraining from towing or hauling anything until the break-in period ends.
