Embodied CO₂
Extending a casting's life avoids a large fraction of the CO₂ embedded in manufacturing new block and head — the exact saving varies by model, but the direction is consistent.
Our story
One European method, one consistent standard.
One European reconditioning site, one four-test protocol, one 10-month warranty. The way we work is documented at every step — here is how, and why.
Origins
Origins
Back Auto Moteurs was founded in 2024 (BACK AUTO SAS, Paris) with one objective: a single testing standard applied to every reconditioned engine sold in Europe. Over a decade of combined reconditioning experience, brought together under one method and one brand.
What we do
What we do
We source, partially strip, test and recondition diesel and petrol engines for the European market. Every unit passes the four-test protocol, ships with its signed report, carries a 10-month warranty and travels on a tracked freight pallet. Our catalogue covers the most common engines from the last fifteen years.
“A new engine costs a fortune to manufacture — in money and in CO₂. Reconditioning an existing engine extends a vehicle's life by several years, often at half the cost.”
Reconditioning an engine extends the useful life of a sound vehicle by several years, at a fraction of the cost and carbon footprint of a new car. It is the most rational answer, economically and environmentally, to an engine failure.
