Engine Finders connects UK drivers with vetted specialists for reliable, reconditioned Fiat Tipo replacement engines. From 1.4L, 1.6L, and 1.8L petrol engines to 1.3L and 1.6L Multijet diesel units found across the Tipo series (356A platform), we source engines specifically designed for the unique architecture of this generation. Whether you're battling timing chain issues across 1.6L petrol variants or DPF problems with Multijet diesel engines in 1.3L and 1.6L configurations, Engine Finders makes it easy to locate the right engine, fast.
Tipo petrol engines (E1400, E1600, E1800, E2000) share identical timing chain architectures prone to wear after 80k miles. We upgrade the timing chain (OEM 06820066AA) and tensioner across all Tipo petrol variants using Fiat technical bulletins, ensuring series-wide durability improvements that address the root cause of chain rattle and potential engine damage.
Tipo Multijet diesel engines (188A1000, 188A2000) suffer from EGR cooler cracking and valve clogging across all variants due to shared exhaust gas recirculation design. We install upgraded EGR cooler (OEM 51677852AC) and valve components across all Tipo diesel variants, preventing carbon buildup and maintaining optimal performance throughout the series.
Tipo engines across all variants (petrol and diesel) share oil pump designs prone to pressure loss after 60k miles. We install reinforced oil pumps (OEM 06820074AA) across the entire Tipo series, ensuring consistent lubrication for all 1.4L, 1.6L, 1.8L, and 2.0L petrol variants as well as 1.3L and 1.6L Multijet diesels, preventing catastrophic engine damage.
Tipo engines across the series suffer from water pump seal failure and thermostat issues affecting both petrol and diesel variants. We install upgraded water pumps (OEM 51677849AC) and thermostats across all Tipo configurations, ensuring optimal cooling performance for 1.4L through 2.0L petrol variants and 1.3L through 1.6L Multijet diesels, preventing overheating damage.
Tipo turbocharged variants including 1.6L Multijet and 2.0L Turbo petrol engines share similar turbocharger designs prone to bearing failure. We rebuild or replace turbos (OEM 51677851AC) across all boosted Tipo variants, using series-specific calibration data and improved bearing assemblies to restore performance and reliability across the range.
Tipo fuel systems across petrol and diesel variants require specialized attention to high-pressure components. We upgrade fuel pumps (OEM 51677850AC) and injectors across all Tipo configurations, addressing the specific fuel delivery requirements of 1.4L through 2.0L petrol variants and 1.3L through 1.6L Multijet diesels with series-appropriate solutions.
Tipo Multijet diesel variants (1.3L and 1.6L) suffer from DPF clogging due to shared exhaust aftertreatment design. We provide comprehensive DPF cleaning and replacement services across all Tipo diesel variants, installing upgraded components (OEM 51677853AC) that maintain emissions compliance while preventing recurring blockage issues across the series.
Tipo engines across all variants require specific gasket configurations that vary by engine family but share common failure points. We provide complete gasket sets (OEM 06820071AA) tailored to each Tipo variant, ensuring proper sealing for 1.4L through 2.0L petrol engines and 1.3L through 1.6L Multijet diesels with series-specific material specifications and torque sequences.
Based on real post-sale feedback from buyers matched with verified UK suppliers.
Engine Finders connects UK drivers with specialists for reliable, reconditioned Fiat Tipo replacement engines. Whether battling Multijet EGR failures across the 1.6L variants or oil consumption issues in 1.4L petrol engines, we provide direct OEM-spec solutions.
The Fiat Tipo evolved through two generations from 2015-2022, featuring various petrol and diesel engines. The first generation (2015-2018) introduced the 1.4L Fire petrol and 1.6L Multijet diesel engines, while the second generation (2018-2022) continued with updated versions of these engines. All Multijet diesel variants (1.6L) suffered from EGR cooler failures and DPF clogging due to shared design, while petrol engines experienced common oil consumption issues after 80,000 miles. The timing belt intervals were consistent across the range at 120,000km, requiring simultaneous water pump replacement to prevent costly interference damage.
The Tipo range featured multiple engine families across its production years, with specific codes indicating different power outputs and configurations. Each engine family shared common failure patterns across the series.
All Tipo engines require specific ECU mapping to match the original vehicle configuration, ensuring compatibility with the 326 chassis platform across all generations.
For Tipo owners, different engine types offer various advantages depending on your needs and budget. Each type addresses the common issues found across the series.
We recommend reconditioned engines for Tipo vehicles as they include updated parts specifically addressing known series-wide issues like EGR problems in Multijet diesels and oil control ring failures in petrol variants.
Our reconditioned Tipo engines include comprehensive upgrades addressing the most common failure points across the series. Each engine is rebuilt to OEM specifications with quality components.
All engines undergo comprehensive testing including compression checks, oil pressure verification, and leak-down tests to ensure they meet Fiat specifications across the Tipo series before delivery.
All reconditioned Tipo engines come with comprehensive warranty coverage protecting against common failure points across the series.

When your engine fails, Fiat Tipo engine works can restore performance at a fraction of the cost of a brand-new engine. From diagnostics to rebuild, here's how experts ensure optimal results.
1. Initial Inspection & Diagnosis: Experts thoroughly examine the Tipo engine block for cracks, measure cylinder wear, and assess all components. For Multijet diesels, special attention is paid to injector seats and EGR passages which commonly clog in Tipo units from 2015-2022. Critical measurements include compression ratios and bearing clearances to determine rebuild feasibility.
2. Complete Strip-Down & Cleaning: The engine is completely disassembled using proper Fiat-specific tools. Each component is cleaned in a hot tank solution and inspected for wear patterns specific to Tipo engines. Parts are sorted and catalogued with attention to orientation. Oil passages are cleared and tested for blockages that commonly occur in the 1.6L Multijet units.
3. Block & Head Machining: The engine block undergoes sonic testing for hidden cracks. Cylinder bores are honed to precise tolerances, and the head is milled if needed to ensure proper flatness. For Tipo engines, valve seats are often replaced due to common wear issues. All oil galleries are thoroughly cleaned and tested for proper flow to prevent premature failure.
4. Component Replacement: Worn components are replaced with updated parts where Fiat issued improvements. For Multijet engines, this includes updated EGR valves and cooler components that address common failure points. Piston rings, bearings, gaskets, and seals are all replaced with OEM-spec parts. Timing components receive special attention in Tipo units due to known timing chain issues.
5. Precision Assembly: Using detailed torque specifications for Tipo engines, components are assembled with proper lubrication and thread locker where required. Special tools ensure correct timing alignment. The engine is built following Fiat's assembly procedures to ensure reliability. Each step is documented to maintain quality standards throughout the process.
6. Testing & Quality Assurance: After assembly, the engine undergoes break-in procedures on a test stand. Oil pressure, compression, and leak-down tests confirm proper function. For Tipo Multijet units, ECU mapping is verified and injection timing is checked. Final inspection includes checking all clearances and ensuring proper operation before packaging for delivery.
