Make that video yet? I’m at the regal replacing my shit son.

love to see this video lol has it been made?

i was about to ask this. thanks for posting this comment mate

@@PalomboDylan no problem! Any time you deal with electrical anything it is important to disconnect the power source, obviously unless you need power to diagnose the concern.

Nice that’s a quick job!

Had the same issues, wish I would gone original OEM. I heard getting the updates to the computer software helps

With that being said, I generally don’t let my starter crank if it doesn’t start. I’ll let it sit and try again, it’s a pain but I won’t swap another until this one dies

Damn, I just had my starter replaced OEM by the dealer because I was having the exact same issues and it solved all the problems.

@@jsinister_vq8303 You did the right thing. I replaced my OEM with an aftermarket and after a few months, crankshaft pos. sensor went bad. ( threw codes ) I've since learned you need to replace starter with OEM to avoid this. Just my experience and I'm in the process of changing back to an OEM starter and CPS. Don't know if I have to have the sensor "relearned". Waste of time and money.

Keep watching!

I don’t have an exact set, but a standard set of metric wrenches or a socket set will be a great start. I’d get yourself a breaker bar, a set of needle nose pliers, and that’ll be a good start. If you have the funds, get a torque wrench too.

You push the wrench towards the bolt and go counterclockwise. The bolt will naturally go out and loosen up. Once you place the socket on the bolt, then you let the wrench do the job.

Lefty loosy

Not easier, it will cost less if you go from underneath to avoid discounting the air intake manifold and the throttle body gasket. No need to do the coolant lines on the throttle body either. So I'm short, save about $70 if you do the underbelly path

How r u saving money doing it from underneath?

@@ram43x80 Your not saving money that way. I was wondering if the starter would be more accesable. Now I know it clearly isn't.

@@roby14 If you did take a look from the bottom, would it be easier? I have a lift.

@@brettrichards1009 No. It sits below the intake and above the body of the engine.

Swapping out the battery may be a good first step, that’s what I did. It didn’t help, unfortunately. If I had to do it over, I would’ve stuck with an OEM starter or rebuilt the starter if you have the bandwidth and time. The new starter I put in was a brand new one, aftermarket, AutoZone. There is some intermittent Long starts, still technically works, doesn’t work like the original

I have the drank sensor warning code and dealer is telling me it's because my aftermarket starter is spinning the shaft differently than a factory starter and I need to start there. What do y'all think?

@@pinnaclecooking2384 when you have to replace the starter again use oem thats all there is to say
