1. Honda Thats Timing Chain Tensioner Wear
Why EN07 Engines Fail Prematurely
Affected Models
Honda Thats G, X, Special Edition (2002-2008, EN07V/EN07W/EN07X)
Typical Failure Mileage
60,000-90,000 miles
Root Cause
The EN07 series uses a compact timing chain design with a hydraulic tensioner prone to wear under kei car operating conditions, especially on high-mileage JDM imports with uncertain service history.
Repair Options & Estimated Costs (UK ranges)
| Repair Tier | Dealer Price | Specialist Price | What It Involves | Longevity / Suitability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Minor - Preventative Tensioner Replacement Minor | £850 - £1,200 | £550 - £850 | Replace hydraulic tensioner, guide rails, and chain inspection | Viable only before chain stretch occurs; 20k-40k mile extension if caught early |
Intermediate - Full Timing Kit Replacement Intermediate | £1,450 - £2,100 | £950 - £1,450 | Replace chain, tensioner, guides, sprockets, and seals | Recommended for engines over 70k miles; addresses root cause but not other wear |
Full Replacement - Rebuilt EN07 Engine Best Value | £3,200 - £4,100 | £2,450 - £3,050 | Supply & fit rebuilt engine with upgraded tensioner, bench-tested, 12-month warranty | Best value for high-mileage imports; resolves all internal wear simultaneously |
Our Recommendation
Best next step for honda thats timing chain tensioner wear
On a Honda Thats worth £3,000-£6,000 as a collector kei import, preventative tensioner replacement makes sense only if the engine is otherwise healthy and under 70k miles. For higher-mileage examples or those with additional symptoms (oil consumption, noise), a rebuilt EN07 unit offers better long-term value and warranty protection.
Don't Let Engine Failure Write Off Your Honda Thats
The Honda Thats represents an ultra-niche segment of the UK JDM import market, with EN07 series engine failures requiring specialist knowledge and parts sourcing. EngineMarket connects you with UK specialists experienced in kei car rebuilds, offering rebuilt engines with upgraded components addressing known tensioner, turbo, and oil consumption issues. Every unit includes a minimum 12-month unlimited mileage warranty and nationwide delivery - compare prices from trusted Honda Thats specialists and keep your collector tall wagon on the road without main dealer premiums.

FAQ
Honda Thats Engine ReplacementFrequently Asked Questions
Question 1
How much does a Honda Thats engine replacement cost in the UK?
Honda Thats engine replacement costs typically range from £2,450-£3,150 for a rebuilt EN07 unit supply-only, with supply & fit adding £850-£1,450 depending on location and variant. Used engines start around £1,250 but carry higher risk for this ultra-niche JDM import.
Key points
- • Rebuilt EN07V (NA) from £2,450, EN07W/X (turbo) from £2,650
- • Supply & fit labour typically adds £850-£1,450 nationwide
- • Used JDM engines £1,250-£1,850 with compression report recommended
- • 12-month warranty standard on rebuilt units through EngineMarket
Question 2
What is the most reliable Honda Thats engine code?
The EN07V naturally aspirated engine is generally considered the most reliable Honda Thats code, with fewer complex components than turbo variants, though all EN07 codes share timing chain tensioner wear concerns at high mileage.
Key points
- • EN07V (NA) has fewer failure points than turbo EN07W/X
- • All EN07 codes prone to tensioner wear at 60k-90k miles
- • Turbo variants add wastegate and oil consumption risks
- • Regular oil changes critical for all EN07 longevity
Question 3
How do I find my Honda Thats engine code on a JDM import?
Your Honda Thats engine code is stamped on the engine block near the cylinder head, typically visible after removing the engine cover; EN07V, EN07W or EN07X will be clearly marked alongside the serial number.
Key points
- • Engine code stamped on block near cylinder head
- • EN07V = NA, EN07W = turbo, EN07X = VTEC turbo
- • DVLA lookup via registration confirms variant but not code
- • Photo documentation recommended when sourcing replacement
Question 4
Can I fit a Daihatsu Mira engine in my Honda Thats?
Yes, Honda Thats engines are fully compatible with Daihatsu Mira/Move platforms as they share the EN07 engine family, but confirm exact code match (EN07V/W/X) and transmission type before sourcing a replacement.
Key points
- • Honda Thats is rebadged Daihatsu Mira Move tall wagon
- • EN07V/W/X codes interchangeable between platforms
- • Confirm CVT vs manual transmission compatibility
- • Daihatsu parts availability can aid UK sourcing
Question 5
What causes Honda Thats engines to fail on JDM imports?
Timing chain tensioner wear is the most common Honda Thats engine failure, followed by turbo wastegate issues on EN07W/X and oil consumption from piston ring wear on high-mileage JDM imports with uncertain service history.
Key points
- • Timing chain tensioner wear at 60k-90k miles most prevalent
- • Turbo wastegate rattle and boost loss on EN07W/X
- • Oil consumption from ring/seal wear on 70k+ mile units
- • CVT compatibility mismatches can cause secondary damage
Question 6
Is it worth replacing a Honda Thats engine on a grey market import?
For collector-level Honda Thats imports valued £3,000-£8,000, engine replacement is often worthwhile given the model's rarity and enthusiast demand, especially with a rebuilt EN07 unit carrying warranty protection.
Key points
- • Collector interest supports £3k-£8k valuations for good examples
- • Rebuilt EN07 engine £2,450-£3,150 plus fitting
- • 12-month warranty reduces long-term ownership risk
- • Specialist knowledge required for JDM kei car rebuilds
Question 7
How long does a Honda Thats engine replacement take in the UK?
Honda Thats engine replacement typically takes 2-4 weeks for rebuilt units sourced from UK stock, or 4-8 weeks if Japan-sourcing is required, plus 1-2 days for supply & fit installation at a specialist centre.
Key points
- • UK-stock rebuilt engines: 2-4 week lead time typical
- • Japan-sourced units: 4-8 weeks including shipping
- • Supply & fit installation: 1-2 days at specialist centre
- • CVT models may require additional ECU calibration time
Question 8
Do Honda Thats replacement engines come with warranty in the UK?
Yes, rebuilt and reconditioned Honda Thats engines supplied through EngineMarket include a minimum 12-month unlimited mileage warranty, with extended coverage options available for collector-grade EN07 rebuilds.
Key points
- • 12-month unlimited mileage warranty standard on rebuilt units
- • Used engines typically carry 3-6 month coverage
- • Warranty terms vary by supplier - confirm before purchase
- • Documentation of service history strengthens warranty claims

EngineMarket's network includes UK specialists experienced with JDM kei car imports and Daihatsu platform compatibility; enter your postcode to find accredited Honda Thats supply & fit centres nationwide.
Key points

- • Mobile fitting available in select regions for kei cars
- • Accredited garages understand grey market documentation
Question 10
What is the difference between rebuilt and reconditioned Honda Thats engines?
Rebuilt Honda Thats engines receive full disassembly with upgraded components addressing known EN07 failure points, while reconditioned units replace only worn parts; rebuilt offers better long-term value for high-mileage JDM imports.
Key points
- • Rebuilt: full disassembly, upgraded tensioners/rings/seals
- • Reconditioned: partial rebuild replacing visibly worn parts
- • Rebuilt typically £200-£400 more but longer lifespan
- • Both carry 12-month warranty through EngineMarket
