What engine can best be used to replace this vehicle

Hello,

You really need to replace the engine in your vehicle with the exact same one that came out of it, paying attention to the type of transmission that your vehicle has. The reason for this is that modern vehicles have electronics that run virtually every system in the vehicle that is programmed specifically to run that vehicle. You can replace the engine with a different one, but be prepared to take out the whole wiring harness and rewire the whole vehicle with a stand alone wiring harness and Power-train Control Module (PCM). These stand alone engine management systems run around $1,500. To $3,000, depending on brand and quality. Either way, the choice is yours, but given the expense and extra work involved, I would recommend getting an exact replacement engine, but ultimately the choice is yours. Either way I would suggest checking out LKQ, which is Ebays auto dismantler. They have a wide array of used engines at a wide array of price ranges. Please keep us informed as to how things progress and if you have any vehicle related questions, please feel free to ask.

Thanks,

Yes, it is the picture of the engine. Here is a link for you to go to so you can pull the Direct Trouble Code(s)(DTC)(s) from your vehicle.
