Don't know why they're getting rid of it. The xD is a little too boxy.

Anyone know if it's feasible to get a new Echo engine put into my xA when it starts to sputter?

I've got 100,000 on mine already.

Thanks,

yes, they use the same motor

you might want to snag the echo tranny too for even better fuel economy

JASPER finally assigned a stock number for this engine - 554710 - but no pricing yet - that means there still hasn't been enough demand to warrant putting it into production.

When it does though, I'll be one of the first to know - I work for the shop that remanufactures their imports.

So, if you're interested, call them and let 'em know!

BTW - we just upped the warranty to 100,000 miles

As long as you maintain.. your engine should last at least 200K miles- if not more.

When your engine goes, look into getting a used Japanese engine(just under 30K miles) = they usually go for $1200-1600 + install . Not too sure how many are coming over from Japan currently.
