Nice video. I really appreciate the info on how to remove the outer race after the bearing has come apart. Thanks for posting.

Thanks, the manual isn't very clear. I was filling it to the upper round ring which is to much. I had a hard time finding neutral. Now I know why. Thanks again for clearly explaining it.

My Car does not have a key lock on the trunk. It has an electric lock that is operated by the fob. Or the switch on the front door but it locks and unlocks normally.

Yes. 100% the spring is facing the bearing/ oil. I think what you see is the goldish color of the seal. Thanks for the comment.

@sideyardmechanic Ай бұрын

I looked at some pictures of the housing online. It looks like there is some kind of plug held in with a clip. Possibly used during manufacturing to cross drill a passage. You might be able to remove it and inspect for damage and reseal with a new seal or RTV. It might have an o-ring on the plug. Good luck

Hello, I have the same case with my sonic 1.8. Random misfires without codes. My spark plugs were original AC Delco installed in November 2023 and I replaced the coil pack a year or so ago by the same ENA. I made a mistake when I installed it since I did not use the dielectric grease and when I removed them I noticed that the inner plastic part was affected. However, according to what I have investigated in many forums and videos, the sonic is very sensitive with parts that are not original, the original coil has to be the DELPHI or acdelco brand, both available on Amazon. I'm going to order the Delphi coil to see if it solves my problem.

@@sideyardmechanic I'm really a bit desperate, those push-pulls feel very bad and even more so that in my country there is more traffic than free passage. I even went to a place to have the catalytic converter checked, they put a camera in it and it looks partially clogged but very little. I even thought it could be the cause. what do you think?

Thank you for the video. I did it some time ago and it is working very well on my wifes pt cruiser. I didn't even solder the wires. A simple solution that will probably last much more than the touch. And if it doesn't last it is very easy to replace the switch. This touch stops working in all pt cruisers.

How do you know it is not one of the injectors? My car is doing the same you just mention, jerking while idle (at a stop). The spark plugs are supposed to be new, not sure about the other part. It is a Chevy Sonic 2016. Appreciate the help, thanks! Nice video btw

@buildnskate9386 2 ай бұрын

Thanks for the question. Spark plugs are easy to change and are a serviceable/ wear item. They only last so long. The same goes with the coil pack. On older cars you would change plugs, wires, and distributor cap during a tune up. It's not to say that you can have a faulty injector, but I would think it would give you a rich or lean code. Good luck

Something for the future if you ever mess with another one of these engines that’s been sitting it’s a good idea to pull the valve cover and soak the rockers too. 216 and 235 Chevy engine have a kind of a floating valve seal that like to stick and I’ve seen them stick bad enough to break rockers. They’re not the easiest things to get for these engines and they’re not cheap when you find them Easy way to roll these over by hand is the hand crank used for starting in an emergency

My switch went out too. This fix worked perfectly. Thank you! The new switch works better, in my opinion. My PT has a keyhole, so at least I was able to use the hatch till I installed the new switch. Also, the trim comes off and goes back on easily. I used an angle drill head adapter and a step drill bit for the 1/2 inch hole.
