2013 Chevrolet Equinox engine removal from the top. How to remove engine from Chevy Equinox 

Great videos and very helpful with the seized up flexplate! I couldn’t seem to get the compressor off the long bolt holding it on the engine…

I want to also give you a medal on how I didn’t have to find another video over others that I cannot watch with my wife or children sitting beside me over the cussing. I am using your videos as a model for my project, I will be finishing up today on the exact same engine removal preparing for a complete overhaul on a 2011 equinox and your expertise and instruction has helped tremendously. Concerning that power steering plug I believe Ima cut them in half, then on replacing I will clean and solder them back together, I have knowledge in soldering down to computer circuit board level so that will come in handy, good deal bro

I'll be doing one of these on a 2011 here in a couple weeks. Thanks for posting.

The awd is much more difficult to pull from the top. But it too can be pulled up instead of dropping the front frame. It's just as easy to pull it out the bottom.

I am the owner of Caine's car care in dubois pa this has been THE best video I have seen on the internet im about to pull the same motor for a rear main seal just put a new head and timing set with water pump then the rear main started leaking mine is California emissions.oh and my name is Mark

How could you possibly miss that last heater hose ? Can't you see through dense jungles, and around corners, in the dark? Great video, great attitude. Thanks for doing this. It helps me to know how to get to some of the hidden bolts, and to get the catalytic converter down. The lower bolt on the axle support can be removed without removing the axle - pry the CV joints as compressed as you can, and two objects can nearly occupy the same space at the same time. Thanks to Philip Bailey's excellent video for that information.

Great Video. 👏 thanks for sharing. There is not much space to take the engine out, but is possible.

my 2013 is going thru this right now. being replaced with a remanufactured engine. I thought the engine blew, but it looks like the timing chain went. Prior to this, i bought it a couple years ago and its been burning a quart of oil every 4-500 miles. I knew I was in trouble. But out of nowhere, no warning whatsoever, blewey. Sounded like marbles in a clothes dryer. Mechanic said, we could buy a timing kit to install. With the oil burn rate it has, Im like, lets just change the engine out. The remanufactured engine has a 5 year 100k mile warranty. If I didnt do this, no warranty and the bad oil consumption would continue. So i thought it in my best interest to change it out while i had the money to do so. Great car! Bad engine, obviously. Bad from the manufacturer. Im also making sure the water pump gets changed out, as if it goes bad (its 12 years old), i looked around and its a 1 thousand dollar repair if it needs done. So killing that issue before it starts.

Excellent camera detail for this pull. Not many vids out there pulling from the top except some with time lapse showing a single camera view (not helpful at all). Really appreciate it since I think I have a main seal leak. Did you ever figure out after pulling the motor what would have been the easiest way to disconnect the P/S plug? Also, mine is FWD so I'm thinking there might be a little more room... this was AWD correct?

Amazing video thx you so much

Great video. Is it necessary to drain the transmission fluid?

I’ve got a rear main seal out. Mechanic wants 2k. I could do this myself, I think. But then I still have to pay them 1600 to make the ac work again? I’m hoping you’ll reply , I need to fix this car. I don’t have 2k or 1600. And idk if you’ve driven one of these things but on the interstate windows down isn’t much of an option. If you do reply, thank you for your time sir. Either way, thank you for the video

Can you make a list of the tools needed

I cant get that power steering plug off, the first one the one on top, have the red slider off, pressing down but she wont slide .

CAN I REPLACE A 4 cylinder EQUINOX with a V6 ENGINE?

2013 POS 2.4

Is this a 2.4 or 3.0?

Is this a front wheel drive or AWD?

how much u charge the customer? if u dont mine me asking

So 24 hours work and a used Motor comes out to 2400 labour and 2500 for a good low mileage engine after changing the timing chain and water pump exhaust manifold and gaskets so $5000 to fix a car worth $5000 in okay condition? No thanks l would have scrapped it for the $600 and bought another vehicle. This is the result of poor maintenance! Change your oil people! Do it often and mobile one synthetic dextos additive like it is suppose to have and do not buy cheap filters! When the oil monitor says 30% left you change it. GM Is off on the timeframes. I bet the used engine will need the intake valves blasted aswell.

What tool is that needed at 8:38? On the what shield

We could do some videos together lol .did a rack n pinion on a jeep liberty .DID NOT have to remove front diff and had it finished only took an hour wanna know how ? Message me back
