Thanks for the video Im going to be doing this job soon I was going to try to remove it out the top but after seeing your video it looks much easier removing it out the bottom.
I don't think so. You should be able to take it out from atleast the bottom. I haven't done one yet, but a coworker had and I know he didn't remove the engine.
I think I will do a video of a teardown. I work at a dealership with one of the fastest mechanics I have seen. It takes about 4 hours to take out. And 4 to rebuild. I watch and learn. He has over 50 years experience.
Sorry man. I'm off work for another month, so it's going to be a little bit until I know the time. If I can remember when I return I will definitely let you guys know.
If this was done at a dealership. Which it looks like .You are by far the fastest mechanic I've ever seen working . By the hour.😁👌👍
I hear that often 😅 but I love what I do and I hope it shows!
We need more mechanics like you.
Thanks! I appreciate that! Working hard is fun. 😁

What a great job my friend exelent thanks for sharing all your knowledge
GRACIAS, ,,,AMIGO
Thanks my pleasure!
Where is the engine coolant temperature sensor on this engine? Im having trouble finding and replacing on my buick
it appears this guy has taken out a lot of these motors, I should have watched this before I bought mine
Ok I know the new cars and trucks are difficult to tear down but when do you need to cut an exhaust to get an engine out.
Thanks for posting. I have a 2011 LHU with some tuning. May have to do this if I smack it too hard!
Hahaha 🤣 not to hard anyhow
There isn’t any shift linkages on the transmission or wires to disconnect to separate the motor ?
Is the turbo on the front of the 2012 Buick regal
What a job.
You aren't kidding!
Awesome job!
Thanks! 👍
Can you take that motor out the top
Thanks for the video! I have a 2014 same car with a bad transmission. Wonder if its possible to pull just the trans? Thank!
Always possible to remove just trans. Cars with full subframes require the subframe to be removed in order to fit the trans.
My turbocharger just went out on my 2011 regal CXL T. Would love a demo
If I get on ill have to do a video but most the time the motor goes before the turbski.
@@CarMechaNick does engine need to come out in order to replace turbo?

I have to do my motor mounts 2015 2.0L Turbo which is the hardest ?
Honestly none of them are hard. Just need a piece of sturdy wood and a good jack. Obviously tools for the job also.
@@CarMechaNick Thank you !
What type of turbo? LHU or LTG🤔
Looks just like my 2011 LHU
can you tell me how to remove the starter have a 2014 buick same motor
Pretty sure it's 2 15mm bolts in the front of the block.
2014 has the LTG, different engine.
Q puede ser esa pieza tengo salidero de aceite por el tornillo de abajo
What was the reason for engine removal
Its been a while so I'm not really sure. I'm sure the rod was knocking hah. Thats typically what we see due to old oil or no oil at all 🙃
Can a 5.7 l small replace the 2.0 engine in these cars?
If it was a Subaru the engine would of been out already
I wish the real total time would’ve been posted or shown.
If I can remember, which I will try. I'll look it up at work and let you know. I want to say anywhere between 8-12 hours.
@@CarMechaNick was this LTG or LHU? So 8-12 hours?
You sound like you know what your talking about, look it up.
@@CarMechaNick :/. Total time would be helpful. Please and thank you.
Sorry man. I'm off work for another month, so it's going to be a little bit until I know the time. If I can remember when I return I will definitely let you guys know.
Not knocking you running up the bill but all this you just done was a waste of time i just done this job just took out engine alone from the top
