No two crankshafts are quite the same across different vehicles, so getting the specifics right matters when you buy used, second hand or a replacement. Answer a few quick questions below and breakers will only quote if they have the exact matching part in stock:
Yes, every 4C has a crankshaft — it is a fundamental internal engine component present in all variants. The 4C was sold in the UK from 2014 to 2020 and used only one engine throughout its production run: a 1750cc turbocharged four-cylinder petrol unit, so there are no engine variants to complicate things. All 4C crankshafts from UK breakers will come from that same engine family.
The 4C used the same 1750cc turbocharged four-cylinder engine (engine code 960A1.000) throughout its entire UK production run from 2014 to 2020, so on paper the crankshaft is the same unit across all years. However, ancillary and mounting details can change quietly mid-production without a formal model-year cut-off, so confirm with the breaker that the unit they have matches your exact registration before buying. Supplying your engine code from the V5 or a VIN check gives the breaker the most reliable basis for comparison.
The crankshaft itself is an internal engine component and is not affected by which gearbox the donor car was fitted with, so a crankshaft from a twin-clutch TCT-equipped 4C is the same part as one from a manual-gearbox car. The engine code is what you should match, not the transmission type. Confirm the engine code with the breaker against your registration to be sure.
No, body style makes no difference whatsoever to crankshaft fitment. Both the 4C Coupe and the 4C Spider used the same 1750cc turbocharged four-cylinder engine, so the crankshaft is identical between them. Focus on matching the engine code rather than whether the donor car had a roof or not.
Trim level has no bearing on crankshaft fitment. The 4C was offered in standard and Launch Edition guises in the UK, but these differences relate to cosmetic and equipment specifications rather than the engine internals. The crankshaft is determined entirely by the engine code, so any trim-level 4C will have the same unit.
The single most useful piece of information is your engine code, which you can find on your V5C or by running a VIN check — this confirms exactly which engine variant you have rather than relying on the badge alone. Your registration number and the year of your car are also helpful. Asking the breaker to verify the part against your registration before dispatch is always advisable, as internal engine tolerances mean any mismatch can be costly.
