Which Kia Forte engine do I need?

Between 2010 and 2024 the Forte, Forte Koup, and Forte5 ran four-cylinder engines from 1.6L to 2.4L, and the mix changed by model and year, so the model name alone won't tell you which one fits. The quickest way to get the right engine is your VIN or the engine code stamped on the block. The table below shows the engines offered by year. Where it says "Confirm by VIN," send us your VIN and we'll match it for you.



Remanufactured Kia Forte engine warranty

Every engine we sell comes with a warranty. Terms depend on the type of engine you buy. We explain them before you order, and they're listed on your invoice. Extended warranties are available for an additional cost. The old engine, called the core, must come back within 30 days of delivery to keep the warranty in place. Read the full policy on our Warranty & Returns page.

Why Forte owners call us

The Forte is Kia's compact sedan, and in 2020 Kia listed 147 horsepower from the 2.0L in most trims and 201 horsepower from the turbocharged 1.6L in the GT. When the engine fails, a remanufactured engine is often the most cost-effective way to keep the car on the road. Kia engines can be harder to find than Chevrolet or Ford engines, and the Forte's many engine variants make the right match harder still, which is where our sourcing network helps. If budget is the hurdle, financing is available through Synchrony and PayTomorrow, subject to approval.
