Ferrari 612 F133 V12 Specialist Engine ReplacementCompare Quotes

Used Ferrari 612 F133 engines cost £4,000-£6,000, reconditioned units £7,500-£9,000, and remanufactured F133F/F133H V12s £11,000-£14,000 supply-only.

• Prices vary by engine code, mileage and supplier location
• Rebuilt engines include upgraded components addressing known failure points
• Supply & fit adds £2,500-£4,500 depending on specialist garage
• All EngineMarket suppliers offer minimum 12-month unlimited mileage warranty

The F133F/F133H V12 is robust with proper maintenance, but timing belt failure and F1 sensor issues on 2005-2007 models are the main weak points.

• Timing belt must be replaced every 3 years or 30,000 miles without exception
• F1 gearbox heat sensor recall affected 366 cars from 2005-2007
• Oil leaks from sump gaskets common on high-mileage front-mid V12s
• Regular oil changes with correct specification critical for bearing longevity

The F133 is an interference V12; a snapped timing belt destroys valves and pistons. Prevention requires replacement every 30k miles or 3 years.

• Belt replacement includes tensioners, idlers and water pump as standard
• Labour-intensive due to front-mid engine layout; budget £2,200-£3,200 specialist
• Never extend intervals; failure causes £7,500+ rebuild requirement
• Keep full service records to protect resale and warranty claims

2005-2007 Ferrari 612 models with F1 transmission were subject to a global recall for heat-damaged F1 sensors; check your VIN with a Ferrari specialist.

• Recall addressed sensors positioned too close to V12 heat sources
• Symptoms include false "F1 failure" warnings and erratic gear changes
• Many cars had sensors replaced; verify history before purchase
• Sensor replacement costs £650-£1,100 at independent specialists

Rebuilt F133 engines offer warranty protection and upgraded components addressing known failures, while used units are cheaper but carry higher risk for a GT car.

• Used F133: £4k-£6k, limited warranty, verify compression test results
• Rebuilt F133: £7.5k-£10.5k, 12-month warranty, upgraded bearings and seals
• Rebuilt is better long-term value for cars worth £40k-£80k
• Always budget for timing belt service regardless of engine source

The F133F/F133H engine number is stamped on the engine block near the oil filter housing on the passenger side of the front-mid V12.

• Engine number required for parts ordering and warranty claims
• Cross-reference with chassis VIN for exact specification matching
• Photograph stamping before engine removal for documentation
• Specialists can verify authenticity and production date from number

Supply-only delivery takes 3-7 days; full supply & fit installation typically requires 4-6 days at a Ferrari GT specialist workshop.

• Front-mid V12 layout requires subframe removal for access
• F1 transmission models need additional hydraulic system commissioning
• Post-fit dyno or road testing recommended before collection
• Book specialist garage in advance; GT-capable workshops have limited capacity

The F133F/F133H can be tuned to approximately 580hp with exhaust, intake and ECU remap, but reliability trade-offs apply for a grand tourer.

• Stage 1: Sports exhaust and intake + remap yields ~560hp reliably
• Stage 2: Ported heads and aggressive cam profiles reach ~580hp
• Increased stress accelerates wear on bearings and timing components
• Tuning may affect warranty coverage; disclose modifications to insurer

The 575M uses the same F133F/F133H 5.7L V12 block, but ECU calibration, mounting points and ancillaries differ; direct swap not recommended without specialist modification.

• Core architecture identical but calibration and wiring harnesses differ
• F1 transmission compatibility requires software matching
• Exhaust and cooling system routing varies between chassis
• Specialist fabrication required; budget exceeds cost of correct 612 engine

• Warranty covers parts and labour at any UK specialist garage
