Kia Cerato Engines
The Kia Cerato spans 5 engine codes in our range, which is why the model name on its own is not enough to order from. Two Ceratos of the same year can take different engines. Send your rego or VIN and we will pin down which one yours needs.

Identifying the right engine

Reconditioned from $3,000 with GST included, or $4,000 supplied and fitted at Hallam. The difference is the flat $1,000 fitting rate.
What this sedan is used for
Sedans in this range are usually well out of warranty by the time an engine is in question, which changes the maths.
Where the Cerato sits now
The Cerato has been a volume seller here across several generations, which is why it spans more than one engine code and why the generation matters when ordering.

Supply and fitCommon questions
Which engine does my Kia Cerato have?
It depends on the build. The Cerato spans G4NA, G4NB, G4FD, G4KD, G4NC in our range. We identify the exact code from your rego or VIN rather than the model name.
How much is a Cerato engine?
From $3,000 for the reconditioned engine with GST included, or $4,000 supplied and fitted at our Hallam workshop. The exact figure depends on which code your vehicle takes.
Is a brand-new engine available?
Yes for the codes this model uses that we list new, and the price list shows the brand-new and the reconditioned price side by side. Where a code is reconditioned only, the engine page says so.
Can my own mechanic fit it?
Yes, and most interstate customers do exactly that. We crate the engine and freight it to their workshop anywhere in Australia.
Will you beat another quote on a Cerato engine?
Yes, by five per cent, provided it is an itemised written quote for identical work from a legitimate workshop.
