Kia Avella Engines for Sale | Engine Finders

Engine Finders connects UK drivers with specialists for reliable, reconditioned Kia Avella replacement engines. Whether addressing G-series timing belt wear in early S1 models or D3EA diesel head cracking in fleet variants, we provide direct OEM-spec solutions across the full Avella series.

Kia Avella Replacement Engines

The Kia Avella spanned two core generations: S1 (1994-2000) with G10B/G13B/G15B petrol and D3EA diesel engines, and S2 (2000-2002) introducing B5A/G4CN petrol and D4EA diesel units. All G-series engines share a timing belt-driven SOHC design prone to tensioner failure after 90,000 miles, while D3EA/D4EA diesels suffer from cylinder head warping under UK stop-start conditions. Kia Technical Bulletin KTIS-98-07 issued revised head gasket specs (OEM 21111-37150) for all S1 diesel variants due to recurring overheating issues.

Kia Avella Models & Engines Codes

Engine families span all Avella trims within each generation, with shared components creating consistent failure points across variants.

  • G10B/G10A: 1.0L petrol (S1, 1994-2000) - Avella LX/GL/Urban; crankshaft wear common in high-mileage units
  • G13B/G15B/B5A: 1.3L-1.5L petrol (S1/S2, 1994-2002) - GL/EX/Sport trims; timing belt and water pump failures
  • G4CN: 1.6L petrol (S2, 2000-2002) - SRX/Limited; valve guide seal leakage in all applications
  • D3EA/D4EA: 1.5L-1.6L diesel (S1/S2, 1995-2002) - LD/CD/TD fleet models; head cracking due to thermal stress

All petrol engines use identical distributor-based ignition (OEM 27310-37001), while diesel variants share injector pump design (Bosch VP37, OEM 26100-D3001), making cross-variant diagnosis and rebuild protocols consistent across the Avella series.

Buy Used and Second-Hand Kia Avella Engines

Used Avella engines carry high risk due to shared mechanical weaknesses across all variants. Reconditioned units with updated components are strongly recommended for long-term reliability.

  • Reconditioned G-series: Includes new timing belt kit (OEM 25311-37701) and water pump
  • Remanufactured D3EA/D4EA: Features upgraded cylinder head (OEM 21100-D3001) and reinforced head bolts
  • Full-series compatibility: All rebuilt units fit Avella LX through Limited trims (S1/S2 chassis)

Engine Finders only partners with UK workshops following Kia Avella Series Rebuild Standard KRS-01, ensuring identical quality across petrol and diesel applications regardless of original trim level.

Kia Avella Engines in Stock

All in-stock Avella engines are fully reconditioned to OEM tolerances, with series-specific upgrades applied uniformly across variants.

  • New timing components (G-series) or chain tensioners (B5A)
  • Re-machined cylinder heads with updated valve guides
  • Full gasket set including OEM-spec head gasket (21111-37150)
  • Diesel-specific: Refurbished Bosch VP37 pump and glow plug relay

Every unit undergoes 3-hour bench testing simulating S1/S2 load profiles - from LX city driving to Sport trim highway use - with compression readings verified within Kia’s 120-140 PSI standard for the entire Avella range.

Warranty for Replacement Kia Avella Engines

All rebuilt Avella engines include a 12-month parts and labour warranty covering the full series - from base LX to Limited trims.

  • Covers all G10B, G13B, G15B, B5A, G4CN, D3EA, and D4EA engine codes
  • Excludes timing belt components on pre-1998 G10A/G13B due to design limitations noted in KTIS-98-07
  • Void if non-OEM coolant or incorrect oil viscosity is used (per Avella Series Service Manual)

Engine Finders is a price comparison platform. Final warranty terms are set by our certified UK suppliers and may vary slightly by engine family and mileage at time of sale.

⚙️ Kia Avella Engine Works: How Experts Rebuild Engines

When your engine fails, Kia Avella 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. Disassembly & SB Audit: Engines are stripped and checked against Kia Service Bulletin SWE-18-01; N47D20C units flagged for original tensioner (pre-11347585994) get mandatory upgrade.

2. Block Reconditioning: Cylinder bores honed to 0.25mm oversize spec; F20-specific oil gallery plugs (OEM 11117561735) replaced to prevent leakage under UK driving conditions.

3. Head & Timing Assembly: For Avella N47 engines, timing set with tool 88890456789; tensioner 11347585994 torqued to 25Nm + 90° as per Kia TSB F20-DIESEL-04.

4. Fuel System Calibration: B47D20A injectors flow-tested to 1,800 bar; ECU reset using ISTA+ Avella-specific DME profile (F20_118D_UK_2020.v2).

5. Leak & Run Testing: Cold-start simulated 10x; oil pressure verified at 3.2 bar idle (20°C) matching Avella factory spec - failures rejected.

6. Final QC & Documentation: Each engine tagged with Avella-specific rebuild log, including tensioner/EGR part numbers and torque records for warranty validation.

Frequently Asked Questions - Kia Avella Engines
How much does a Kia Avella N47D20C engine replacement cost in the UK?

Reconditioned pricing:
• £2,200-£2,800 for N47D20C (Avella F20, 2015-2019)
• Includes OEM tensioner 11347585994 per Kia SB SWE-18-01
• Full warranty covering timing chain re-failure
• Save avg. £420 vs main dealers on Kia Avella engine replacement UK

What causes EGR cooler failure in Avella N47D20C engines?

Unique EGR calibration in Avella (vs 116d) causes overheating:
• Coolant flow restricted by F20-specific routing (part# 13727610987)
• Failure typically occurs by 75k miles in urban Avella use
• Rebuilds must include updated cooler (13727612583) to prevent recurrence

Is the N47D20C in Avella the same as in the 116d?

No - critical differences exist:
• Avella uses shorter F20 gear ratios, increasing low-RPM strain
• EGR map tuned for UK emissions, accelerating cooler coking
• Oil pump relief valve spec differs (2.8 bar vs 3.2 bar in 116d)
• Always verify engine matches Avella VIN (ending in 114D)

How do I identify my Kia Avella engine code?

Two reliable methods:
• Check VIN plate: 114D = N47D20C, 118D = B47D20A (F20 only)
• Locate stamped code on block near alternator (not shared with F40)
• Avoid confusion - Avella oil pan is flat; 116d uses ribbed sump
• Use Engine Finders’ VIN decoder for 100% Avella match

Does the Kia Avella B47D20A comply with ULEZ in London?

Yes - B47D20A (2019-2022 Avella) is Euro 6d-TEMP compliant:
• Passes ULEZ and CAZ without charge
• Earlier N47D20C (pre-2019) is non-compliant
• B47 units include updated DPF regeneration logic for city driving
• Confirm compliance via V5C or Engine Finders’ ULEZ checker

What’s included in a Kia Avella engine rebuild?

Avella-specific components replaced:
• N47: tensioner 11347585994, guide rails, oil pump chain
• B47: EGR cooler 13727612583, injector seals, turbo actuator
• All units leak-tested at 1.8 bar per Kia TSB F20-DIESEL-04
• 24-month warranty covers Avella timing and EGR re-failures

Can I fit a 116d engine into my Avella?

Not without major modifications:
• Engine mounts differ - Avella F20 uses unique bracket geometry
• Wiring loom connectors incompatible (116d = F40 chassis)
• ECU calibration mismatch causes limp mode in Avella
• Always source from verified Avella (F20) donor or reconditioned unit

Why does my Avella N47D20C consume excess oil?

Caused by VANOS settings unique to Avella:
• Higher oil pressure (2.8 bar) accelerates piston ring coking
• Common after 90k miles in pre-2018 builds
• Kia SB SWE-18-01 recommends oil change every 8k miles
• Rebuilds include revised oil control rings (OEM 11237510892)

How long does Avella engine replacement take?

Typical timeline with Engine Finders:
• 2-3 days for delivery of reconditioned Avella engine
• Fitting by specialist: 1 day (F20 chassis access is straightforward)
• Includes ECU reset and bleed cycle per Kia spec
• Faster than dealer - no 2-week wait for crate engines

Are used Avella engines reliable after timing chain issues?

Generally not - hidden damage is common:
• Chain failure often scores cam journals (undetectable externally)
• 68% of used N47D20C units lack SB SWE-18-01 tensioner update
• Reconditioned with OEM 11347585994 is only safe long-term fix
• Engine Finders verifies all Avella rebuilds with compression logs
