2007 GMC Yukon, Engine Replacement Part 1

[@mrbobthebuilderss]

Great video. What was the reason for the engine replacement?

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

Bob_the_builder Builder, excessive oil burning on multiple cylinders. She had 208,000 miles, though this was not her first engine 😂

[@throttlebottle5906]

typical of all newer cars, 100K warranty up junkyard time ;)

[@DrJ262]

My 2006 has 270,000 miles on original engine, difference is mine does not have Active Fuel Management AFM

[@jpence87]

@Muhammad Furqan that's because they dont have afm

[@LSp8]

The old 6.0s run forever. My 03' Escalade EXT has 250k original motor. Although I did the transmission (shocking I know) last year along with brake lines all the way around. My lil bro has a 13' Yukon Denali (std/shorty) and the afm 6.2 in her is Toast! @ just 215k😤. We'll be doing this same job soon

[@jgibkiz]

Thanks for the video series. Your videos were the main driver in attempting to swap my 2007 tahoe engine. Answered a ton of unknowns that I had!

[@Baba_Yaga888]

I have to say, as an avid SMA fan, I think so far your repair videos are filmed better than Eric's. As far as camera angles go. I mean so far this is looking like a fantastic video!!!!

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

SAUCE BOSS, I'm glad you are enjoying my friend. I'll do my best to keep improving!

[@johnnyturntable]

THank you so much for this! I am in the process of replacing mine and this is helpful to put her back together!

[@baxrok2.]

lol You're like a totally different person, super chill! Thanks!

[@AP9311]

Hey, found you on my news feed, as I drive Chevys, 5.7, 5.3 and LS3 5.7 ones. But just barely started watching this. Hope I'll enjoy this video.

[@AP9311]

Also if you don't really mind, please include closed captions? :) thanks so much :)

[@troutjunkie7330]

Got to love the south. 2v impact wrench is all you need.

[@rodrigomendez2356]

I just found your channel, , Is really good !!!

[@testosteroneinc.3800]

No brake kleen.....? Oooops, wrong channel. Haha Im a SMA subber, and this was in my recomend. Excellent filming angles

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

Thanks so much!

[@quentinfrost2531]

I have many of the same tools as you, including that yellow light that I've had for many years. We're twins. I wonder where you get all those caps and plugs from and what white marker that is.

[@mph5896]

Looks like a 2007+ Yukon. AFM takes out another previously bullet proof engine. Best thing to do aftermarket is to delete the AFM programming to prevent oil burning/lifter failure.

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

You're totally right. I was wrong on the year, this is a 2007 vehicle. Good catch!

[@DrJ262]

yep my 2006 has 270,00 on original engine. No AFM though.

[@richardlynn7302]

Oh, the reason I'm asking is I am a Durham Tech Auto guy, and on your test drives, the land scape looks familiar.

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

I work in Henderson, NC, so close!

[@techwiz2410]

If I wanted to replace my engine in a 2002 5.3l Yukon.. can I just swap a replacement engine only without having to use the new engines ECU? Are the motors swapable without replacing any electronics

[@dezblyan5125]

Nice to see you it's been awhile

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

Thanks for sticking around friend, it's been super hard to film lately but I'll do my best to do as much as I can!

[@richardlynn7302]

Hey. Great vids man. Do you happen to be located in Durham NC?

[@keysautorepair6038]

Tip number 1 pull the hood off better lighting and doesn't get in the way.

[@throttlebottle5906]

what I want to know, how many leftover nuts/bolts/screws will there be when you're finished :))

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

0 if you know where to hide em ;)

[@throttlebottle5906]

lmao :))

[@escaladetay8974]

How much does these swaps usually cost if i have a donor truck available?

[@tomh6779]

Question?? How does the AFM affect engine longevity?

[@deadone3503]

WHAT ARE YOU PUTTING OLD BELTS BACK ON

[@flmmaz]

Alright Triangle Diagnostics, I see you changed your logo around a little bit. While that's all well and good, it's..........no good. We faithful subscribers as a whole do not like change and that was way to drastic to hit us with all at once. I urge to change it back to the original or there may be consequences. Dunno, I can't see into the future but I'm just sayin'. LOL Really like the nuts and bolts video, gives us a break from the brain busting diag vids that sap all my energy trying to keep up with, I usually watch an episode of Jerry Springer afterwards to make me feel better about myself. Look forward to part 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9...........well you know what I mean :)

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

I certainly hope that you can deal with the change! I'd certainly hate to lose ya 😂😂😂. Yeah I enjoy the nuts and bolts of things. I think as a whole the diagnostic community loses sight of the technicality and fulfillment of actually executing the repair. Not just anyone can fix cars, have to enjoy it all!

[@Chevy-ud1ec]

what are the hours that the book calls to do this job? Thanks

[@mariaisabelcarrillo7143]

WELL MY 2009 YUKON IS GIVING ME 0 OIL PRESSURE WHEN RUNNING. TOOK IT TO A SHOP AND CLAIMS HE REPLACED-VALVE COVER,VALVE LIFTER,VALVE LIFTER AFM,HEAD GASKET SET, VALVE LIFTER OIL MANIFOLD, OIL FILTER, OIL PRESSURE SENSOR, OIL PUMP, SPARK PLUGS, OXYGEN SENSOR, OIL PUMP, VLOM,OIL PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE,OIL PUMP PICKUP TUBE O'RING. THE OIL PRESSURE GOES TO 0 WITH MANUAL GAGE. THE TRUCK RUNS GOOD, DOES NOT OVERHEAT DOES NOT SMOKE . I TOOK IT TO THE GMC DEALER AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT EITHER. ANY ADVICE YOU CAN/WOULD GIVE?

[@CatFuzz71]

What's the reason for removing the entire front of the vehicle?

[@dotfpgov2575]

To make it easier and not harming the radiator

[@NORCALPYRO_]

More labor 😂 you dont need to remove the front clip just the fan and radiator

[@tracycolorado]

Bring em on

[@NomadicMars]

What's book time on that job (re and re only)

[@JoseRamirez-ie2bk]

Tour tools?

[@DependableAutoTruck]

i found a brass tool for removing the cooler lines works much better

[@picoboo5048]

What's the reason for the yellow ! Tag?

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

Pico Boo, I use them for torquing wheels. After I have hand torqued a wheel to specification it immediately gets removed. That way if I get interuppted or pulled off a job I know which wheels haven't been torqued to spec. Any wheel that comes off of a vehicle I'm servicing gets one.

[@picoboo5048]

Triangle Diagnostics ok, makes sense. I'm using that ☺

[@grumpysgarage4790]

X2

[@mynailgamestuffl869]

Can I ask a question should a dealership replace a 6.2 engine to a 5.3 in a Yukon Denali XL

[@lindadiaz8784]

Don’t do it

[@connerwoods6054]

what is the part at 6:45 and the part under it?

[@artyart31]

Or you can just remove the hood, rad fans strip the front of the engine oh and the intake. And it will come right off. No need to dis-assemble the front clip 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

[@deadone3503]

THATS WHAT I AM SAYING TO MY SELF WATCHING HIM DO ALL THIS. JUST TAKE HOOD OFF

[@juanguerrero2282]

Where would I find the tools needed for this ?

[@Myksgarage]

Harbor Freight!!

[@ericcorse]

Those other guys in the shop sure run their mouths a lot.

[@billcoley8520]

Does a 2007 Chevy avalanche 5.3L 2 wheel drive gas have a replaceable pvc valve

[@benmudn]

Got to love these Death On Demand (or Drinks Oil on Demand) engines that might get .5 more mpg when operating correctly. Why did GM ruin one of the best motors out there? Did a Ford engineer sneak over to GM and slip in one of their famous over-engineered designs?

[@DrJ262]

yep they took a 300 k engine and made it a 100k

[@benmudn]

I would've loved to see 100k! 07 started getting really thirsty around 50k, and my 09 chewed the cam and lifters at 30k. I've had 2 untouched non-DOD 5.3s with over 200k that ran great.

[@DrJ262]

my non DOD AFM 5.3 has 270k

[@michaelkane732]

what is the book time?

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

Michael Kane, hey friend, book time on this job for this vehicle is 19.8 hours.

[@attahtheophilus2072]

Love your videos sir can u do me a favour of i can work with u in Belize thanks

[@swav100]

Are you the only white guy in that shop?

[@pinpointautomotiverepair1592]

Nope. My coworkers are just....interesting.....
