I watched your video and to be real honest, I couldn't believe how easy this was. $9 part and 20 minutes of time. I changed my belt while doing the seal. I can't thank you enough for posting the video.
Actually the factory air intake that pulled air through the grill was cold air. Your aftermarket intake that pulls air from inside the engine compartment is a warm air intake.
This is true unless it's setup correctly. Also, when an engine is tuned properly "cold air intakes" actually just help to bring in air much more easily than the restrictive stock intake does. Most stock intakes are designed in a way to be perfectly matched to the stock tune on the engine and will restrict any power/torque gains that you may get from a piggyback or ECU flash tune. The air is technically warmer but, in a turbocharged application, an intercooler does the job of bringing cool air into the engine for you. A well placed intake only helps the intercooler to have less of a job to do.
I appreciate your making this video. The bolt that holds the crankshaft balancer on, which you removed to get at the seal, is a torque-to-yield bolt, which is not to be reused. You also have to tighten the new replacement bolt to a specified torque, plus additional degrees as specified by the factory (i.e. tighten the crankshaft balancer bolt to 100 Nm (74 lb ft) plus an additional 125 degrees). Sharing the GM part number of the replacement seal would be a great help. Due to the mileage on the engine and the work required to remove and replace the crankshaft balancer, not putting a new balancer on the engine may turn out to be false economy. I am glad to see that the job can be done in a driveway in a relatively short time. Thanks again for the video and for tracking down the source of the problem of the notorious oil leak. I too have one of these 2010 Equinoxes with the 2.4L Ecotec. Most independent mechanics refuse to work on them, leaving you at the mercy of the dealerships or to your own skill and ingenuity.
I was not aware this was a TTY bolt. Thank you for the info!!! Ill definitely replace this asap. Also, i will get the part #'s for a replacement set of parts. I will also let some of my folks know this as well. I will likely remake a video and get a touch of extra detail in it. Thank you for the support!
Chris Manning In addition to the Haynes manual, an Alldata DIY subscription, a Mitchell subscription, Technical Service Bulletins from GM, and many RUclips Videos, I was also able to get the 8000 page plus factory service manual in PDF format from an online seller in England, but it came at a price - computer malware came with the manual and it was a real job to remove the malware from my iMac due to latent deficiencies in the MacOS software. No repair ends up being simple on a 2010 Equinox.
I'm impressed, you replaced the stock, cold air housing with multiple baffles/collectors and air filter with a hot air, cone filter that has less surface area than stock. There is a reason for those baffles and cold air intake. A drop-in K&N would have been much better and it maintains the cold air supply. If you do an oil analysis you will find that your silicon (dirt) levels will have increased significantly. This results in more wear. I did testing with a K&N intake system with the same size filter. It sounded louder, but performance suffered. Best results was with a stock air box and K&N panel filter.
I did this today and I found how to stabilize that pulley so you can take that bolt out, if you look real close there are 3 small threaded holes close to the shaft of that pulley, you can either find 3 long bolts to thread through those holes and snug them up against the crankcase, or do what I did and take three 6mm Allen wrenches, I only had 2, and stick them through the threaded holes firm against the crankcase, I did this and that pulley did not move when I broke it loose, I changed the seal and used the 6mm Allen wrenches again to hold that pulley.
I discovered this same leak in my daughters 2012 Chevy Malibu while installing a new serpentine belt. A shop would really charge $1500 for a job this simple? Crazy!
Folks; this ISN"T the only place oil will leak. This front oil seal (because this engine is mounted sideways) is only 1 area oil can leak out of. The rear oil seal, that can blow out because of a simple clogged or frozen PCV is more dreaded in contrast to this authors false dictation.
@@davidhatcher287 Not to mention, isn't the rear seal in a different spot? I mean, if it's not leaking from where you mentioned then obviously this video doesn't apply. Thanks for the vid, it's helped me pinpoint my sister's problem on her '13
Really $1500. Sorry, a rear main seal replacement is $1500 because the shop needs to pull the transmission to replace the $20 part. This is a $200 job tops. Whoever put the sealant on your oil pan used way too much. It likely squeezed out on the inside also, and will breakdown and get stuck in your oi pickup. These GDI engines are notorious for fuel contamination, oil breakdown, clogging PCV, and rear engine main seal failures. Use high quality synthetic oil and never go over 3k miles on an oil change. Ignore the Oil Life Monitor.
How did you press in the seal? Did it go in easy? Did you coat the outside and inside with some oil to get the seal in , and then to slide the balancer in, or is that bad to do? Did you need a tool to tap in the seal?
My 2012 Eq had an oil issue and Chev replaced rings and pistons 3 years ago 100% warranty and extended my warranty (not crank) and problem went away and now the quick oil lost is back? Are there 2 things to go wrong?
January 22, 2019 GM issued a technical support bulletin about this and is servicing the issue under warranty of 100, 000 miles or less. It’s for all VIN numbers from 2010- 2017 models. Just happened to me last week. Glad it’s covered.
got a 2016 and past the 60k that covers this. Got down to 7 degrees and my rear oil seal is gushing. Luckily I heard it right as got on the interstate and got off 8 miles later. Where did you see this? The GM dealer I took it to said there's no technical support bulletin covering 2016. Another issue, there's NO warning light that comes on to tell you you are low on oil. Knocking loud before I heard it and no warning.
@@Youngguns42303 I'm dealing with this issue right now. Talked to a chevy mechanic at a local dealership. The fellow said there's no recall or service on the rear main seal at this time.
GM does have a oil burn recall that addresses this issue! Only under 120k miles. Youll have to pay for the consumption test and oil(85$) ish, but itll fix a 2600$ problem. Update: since this video, i have replaced these parts under that recall myself (a third time) and run Seafoam through my engine. Its cleaned out considerably better than it was and running at very smooth RPM's. The oil burn has been little to none at all compared. I did this leak fix at 182k miles. Im now at 196k and still running smoothly
well, you seem to know how to fix to a point. But that "this" was a cold chisel, and the other "this" is called the harmonic balancer. It is the crankshaft seal, Not a "ring". And the metal ring inside is the pressure spring. All seals have them. What the outer part is metal or nylon. Maybe you need to update your mechanical terminology a bit. Just an observation.
Does this leak make the vehicle turn off at times? Mine has a leak at same location but just recently started turning off while at a stop. Definitely nerve wrecking
I had to comment cuz I swear I did not know where the leak was coming from I took the intake off trying to see where the hell the leak was coming from because I saw my alternator was covered in oil so you really help saved me a lot of money because I was definitely about to say forget it and buy a new car 😭😂
Did the bolt start coming loose or is there a spec on torque cause mine keeps coming loose and when I tighten it up the harmonic balance comes loose after running for about 10 minu
Omg I thought I was the only one that caught it. " i have a police Interceptor with mods but I don't want to say who I work for" WHAT?. So many things wrong here. One a cold air intake set up like that will most likely decrease horsepower or make the car run worse. 2 why mention it has a police set to back track and say I don't want to say my job. WHY mention ANYTHING ABOUT THE WHOLE police SUV job secret agency modded out whip you work for. We came to see a oil leak unless you have a freaking ls1 or hemi in it noone needs to know or care who you work for or what special flux capacitor you're pushing and your Traverse. I only came here because I'm having a hard time pinpointing my oil leak on a factory 2014 Traverse with a ambient temperature air intake set up.
if a shaft seal doesn't have a tiny spring around the inner ridge it's junk, that's why they end up leaking prematurely. use a national brand seal and get a new PCV hose, not valve but hose..
Hey i have a 2010 equinox as well that supposedly was updated on the recalls for this but it still was losing oil like crazy i took it to a chevy dealer they come back and tell me the transmission chain is loose and i have leaky piston rings. So my question is should i get the piston rings replaced only or get this crank shaft ring replaced as well
I just had that’s done to my 2012 CRAPinox it leaked twice they finally replace the whole engine it leaked teo more times after that and now this leak for a total of five GM says they won’t pay to have this fixed because it’s not covered under the powertrain even though I had the whole engine replaced and they say they won’t replace the belt because of the oil leaking on it no more gm cars for me
Yeah the seal part that goes in this spot, is horrid cheap. Seems to break really easy too. Im not sure why GM designed this motor in this manner. Good idea Bad execution
Use a manometer on the fresh air tube from the valve cover to the intake. Rev to 2000 rpms. If crankcase develops pressure instead of vacuum, your pcv is clogged. Pcv built into intake manifold
@@uptownsamcv if only it were that easy… its actually a orifice in the air intake manifold. The little hole gets clogged up and needs to be cleaned out. Its a pain in the ass but worth doing.
Your not pulling in "COLD AIR" when you are sucking hot air from the engine compartment. You were pulling in cold air with the factory airbox which pulls air from under the headlight.... Oye!
I took my grandmother car to the shop to get look for the same problem and they said it was a 1300 job because they would have to take the engine out. Which makes no sense
Don’t want to disclose your occupation I can tell for sure beyond any doubt you are not a mechanic and to be honest you shouldn’t be working on this engine let alone showing others what you did You were extremely lucky that you didn’t crack your timing cover Your crank bolt can easily be removed with a impact. The belt tensioner has a 3/8” square drive cast into it for a ratchet to easily remove the belt your crank flywheel or whatever your calling it. That’s a oil pump the harmonizer thing that’s actually a harmonic balancer If you want to screw around with your car that’s fine but I think it’s completely irresponsible of you to be showing others acting like you know what your doing the next guy may not luck out like you did he might end up with thousands of dollars in repairs
I mean thanks for the Video but learn some terminology - That's a Cold Chisel not a Pick thats a Seal not a Ring thats a Harmonic Balancer not a Flywheel Cerakoat is a really bad Idea because the seal needs to ride on that balancer - NOW inspecting the balancer for burrs is a great idea maybe polish the shaft where the seal rides but you don't want a coating that will chip and flake creating a leak where you put the new seal
There is nothing that effects the seal at all. Second, i really dont care for what a part is called. Even though you can attribute that to a simple unintentional misspoken word. So sorry massa for upsetting you.
Thanks So very very easy to do. I was a little bit intimidated at first until i seen it done with no dam shoes on wow then i knew i could do it . It only took 45min. Bolt was easy to come outi had the pry bar touching the ground with the tip of the pry bar on the pulley notch
That is a harmonic balance your dealing with not a flywheel..that would be at the back of the engine connecting it to the torque converter...you know that connects it to the transmission...maybe a basic knowledge of basic tools and basic knowing the front from the back of an engine and drive train would help...and the fact you have a used and worn out by sitting idling mostly then beat to snot police vehicle that you allude to that you may or may not be an officer (Im thinking NOT) means nothing...we can all buy used police worn out shit at auctions all day long...the fact remains the same..they are played out pieces of shit that the municipalities dump every few years on guys like you...and that's why they dump them...lol!

So whats the seal part number?
I would also recommend cleaning the PCV system. It clogs real easy on this engine and is what causes the pressure that weakens the seals.

this is the front seal, not the rear main
rear main involves dropping the trans-axle
@@madflyer1093 I know. He claimed this front seal replacement is a $1500 job.
Well the shop quoted me as 2500$ for this fix last week and this saved me 2450$ so I’m happy
Book time for front seat is 1.2 hours. $400 tops
This is great haha customized. You spray painted your ecm, and put a rusted spectra filter on it. Jesus christ. Kids
Put a screw driver threw one of the holes of the pulley wheel it will catch on to one of the ridges inside and hold it in place

Use a manometer on the fresh air tube from the valve cover to the intake. Rev to 2000 rpms. If crankcase develops pressure instead of vacuum, your pcv is clogged. Pcv built into intake manifold
these engines use a PCV hose and it's under $10, just change it once a year for peace of mind.

Is that bolt regular or left hand thread?
Do you have the answer???? I m trying to do this right now.
Andres Franco it’s regular thread. However do not re-use the old bolt. It’s a torque to yield and you can break it very easily putting it back in.
For anyone who needs to know it's regular thread
God bless you! Thank you for sharing bro
We're struggling with this same problem, but are stuck at getting the belt off. Advice or help?
There is a slot on the tensioner for a 3/8 ratchet or breaker bar to get the belt off

" I wont disclose what I do " , I'm gonna guess dancer at a gar bar ?
What’s that seal called ?
The root cause may be a clogged PVC system.
What is PVC system
More than one problem
There is suposed to be a service bulletin on this
@@MrOliverAC there is but the bulletin states the rear seal and this one in the video is the front.
The tsb describes clogged pcv increasing crankcase pressure, which can cause any oil seal to leak. Rear main was just most common
Its a good idea to change the crank pulley while doing the seal because the seal will score the pulley and cause it to leak with the new seal .
Don’t want to disclose your occupation
I can tell for sure beyond any doubt you are not a mechanic and to be honest you shouldn’t be working on this engine let alone showing others what you did
You were extremely lucky that you didn’t crack your timing cover Your crank bolt can easily be removed with a impact. The belt tensioner has a 3/8” square drive cast into it for a ratchet to easily remove the belt your crank flywheel or whatever your calling it. That’s a oil pump the harmonizer thing that’s actually a harmonic balancer
If you want to screw around with your car that’s fine but I think it’s completely irresponsible of you to be showing others acting like you know what your doing the next guy may not luck out like you did he might end up with thousands of dollars in repairs
