Renault Scala Engines for Sale | Engine Finders

Engine Finders connects UK drivers with specialists for reliable, reconditioned Renault Scala replacement engines. Whether battling K7M timing belt failures across early X07 models or 1.5dCi EGR issues in diesel variants, we provide direct OEM-spec solutions.

Renault Scala Replacement Engines

The Renault Scala evolved through two major generations: X07 Phase 1 (2008-2012) with K7M/C7P engines, and X07 Phase 2 (2013-2017) introducing K4M/C4M families. All K7M petrol engines (X07, 2008-2012) suffered timing belt failures addressed in Service Bulletin REN-14-08, while 1.5dCi diesel variants share EGR cooler vulnerabilities regardless of trim. The Phase 2 generation adopted C4M turbocharged petrol units with revised cooling systems but inherited valve timing issues from predecessors across all Scala variants.

Renault Scala Models & Engines Codes

The Scala series utilizes distinct engine families across its generations, with specific codes indicating different powertrains and applications. Each engine family shares common failure patterns and component specifications across all compatible variants.

  • K7M710: 1.6L petrol (X07, 2008-2012) - Timing belt tensioner failure across all variants
  • C7P: 1.2L petrol (X07, 2008-2017) - Valve adjustment issues in all Scala models
  • 1.5dCi: 1.5L diesel (X07, 2012-2017) - EGR cooler cracking in all diesel variants
  • K4M: 1.6L petrol (X07, 2013-2017) - Variable timing chain issues across later models
  • C4M: 1.2L turbo petrol (X07, 2013-2017) - Turbocharger and cooling system failures

All Scala engines utilize similar mounting configurations and share common ECU platforms within their respective generations, allowing for direct OEM fitment when properly specified for the correct chassis code.

Buy Used and Second-Hand Renault Scala Engines

For Scala owners: Used engines carry high risk due to shared K7M/C7P failure patterns across all X07 variants. Reconditioned units with updated timing components are essential for pre-2013 petrol models. Remanufactured 1.5dCi diesel engines with EGR upgrades are recommended for all diesel variants regardless of trim level.

  • Used engines: Risky due to shared failure patterns across all Scala variants
  • Reconditioned engines: Updated components for common K7M/C7P issues
  • Remanufactured engines: Complete rebuilds with OEM-spec components
  • New engines: Factory-fresh units with full warranty coverage

All engine types undergo compatibility verification for your specific X07 chassis code to ensure proper fitment and function.

Renault Scala Engines in Stock
