2011 Chevy Camaro Engine Replacement

[@JCamacho404]

Thank you so much for sharing and making this video. My 2012 Camaro needed this service. Unfortunately, the car is no longer with me.

[@T_active]

Easy to follow video without any unnecessary BS. Motivating

[@kayauto]

I appreciate that!🙏🏽

[@RoodyStVal]

I never comment on anything, but I had to give you your respect from one tech to another. Great Job!

[@kayauto]

Big thanks to you bro 🙏🏽

[@zoominwithzee6103]

[@kayauto]

Thanks 🙏🏽

Brother that is a damn good job I just learned a lot

[@kayauto]

Thank you my brother 🙏🏾

[@malachismith3509]

Awesome and informative video! When you removed the torque converter bolts, did you have to support the transmission at all? I’m getting ready to do the same swap on my 2010 but I’ve read you have to support the transmission when the engine is detached. Mine is a manual if that makes any difference.

[@kayauto]

Thanks for the comment bro. Yes, I supported the transmission with the floor jack , it helps stabilize the transmission

[@Manny_kil]

I’m about to replace mines on my 2010 too dang 😂

[@jogollumyt8871]

Where did u buy your replacement motor

[@kayauto]

LKQ

[@AaronBaker-t2l]

Pls to god tell me how you got the little bolt out in between the coolant lines on the back of the motor to take the lines out to get to the trans bell housing bolt

[@edgarmonrreal9878]

Did you have to do anything to the computer? Any programming?

[@kayauto]

No it was just plug and play, no programming needed

[@1UpTroy]

What tools where used , how many bolt what size where the bolts and where was the located

[@JCamacho404]

No disrespect. If you are asking these questions, you should not be working on a car. or by any means turning a wrench. Good luck

[@ricgomez1]

What size engine was this

[@kayauto]

3.6 L

[@Jash_Taylor]

Sorry to keep bothering u another question I found out the plastic pieces in shifter assembly was broke and wasn’t putting car in park even though it said it was on shifter so I went under car and pulled the transmission linkage all the way back and it out it in park I got a new shifter assembly coming tomorrow how do I install it to make sure the park reverse neutral drive match up on the shifter assembly with the actual gear change on transmission linkage

[@kayauto]

So before you install the new shifter cable go in the car turn the ignition on and go on the transmission and move the selector to Park so it can show on the dash as Park then go ahead and install the shifter cable and make sure the gear handle is also in Park Then you can go ahead and install it and should be all set

[@Jash_Taylor]

One last question do u have to re fill transmission with transmission fluid after removing transmission coolant line from transmission im asking bc I installed the shifter and when I started the car when I put in reverse car doesn’t move and when I push it back to park it makes a grinding noise so I’m trying to figure out if it’s just bc being low on fluid or if the tranny is toast

[@AKR-1978]

What’s the cost to replace an engine 5speed 2010 Camaro LT

[@LuisRamos-fj9wp]

Question so I installed engine and mounted to transmission but shifter in car moves freely how to fix

[@kayauto]

Hi, thanks for the question so few things could cause that one check the shifter cable it could be broken. I’ve had an experience like that before if the shifter cable breaks the shifter in the car is gonna move freely that is one and two check where the shifter cable plugs to the transmission on top or where the shifter connect to the transmission on top check if the connection is intact maybe it’s it came off from the slider.

[@Jash_Taylor]

@@kayauto see my battery went dead before I changed the engine and we had to push car so we did the trick with the release pully on the shifter so it could go in neutral I found the little black piece wasn’t screwed in but idk if that would keep it from locking

[@Jash_Taylor]

@@kayauto also I’m having another issue my car clicks once and looses power all the lights on dash come on but when turning over it goes black I had this short thick ground wire I haven’t installed it’s called the Engine Ground Cable but I didn’t know where to put it and idk if that could be the cause but also it has been sitting for awhile so I thought maybe the battery bad bc after charging it lights came on car for a little while but eventually only thing that would get them on was me hooking up jumper cables

[@EReznok]

How many hours was that?

[@kayauto]

16 hours

[@nicklenio8131]

Very educational video just by watching. What’s the name of this song?

[@kayauto]

Thank you 🙏, for the song it’s a song in an app that I use

[@adrianjones4185]

I have a 2011 Camaro that may need a new engine. How can I get in contact with you about receiving a quote? I’m in Florida, but would I’d be willing to drive the car to you & let you work on it given the great job you did here.

Will a 2015 Chevy Camaro engine fit inside my 2011 Chevy Camaro? Automatic transmission

[@kayauto]

Yes it’s should fit, if it’s the same cylinder and engine type

[@Pretty0131]

@@kayauto are you sure because the 2015 engine says it’s a LFX and the one that blew out in my car is a LLT they both are 3.6 for a V6 I gotta purchase one for the mechanic to put in the LFX is cheaper than the LLT

[@jorgeramos3003]

Yes it will fit already did on mine i went from 2012 to 2014

[@Pretty0131]

@@jorgeramos3003 was your 2012 a LLT and 2014 a LFX?

Yes I’m positive

[@Jash_Taylor]

Question I put good battery in car and I turned the key it clicks once but don’t crank or start what could it be I heard starter but was just curious

[@kayauto]

Check your starter. It sounds like the starter is not turning, but before you do any work check the fuse and the relay for the starter.

[@JohnPaul_Champion]

How much do you charge my friend?

[@kayauto]

Depends on what type on engine you have, 6 or 8 cylinder?

[@JohnPaul_Champion]

I have the exact same car but it’s a 2012 V6 LFX

[@bignip2000]

Why did you pull this engine? What was its malfunction? ​@@kayauto

[@kayauto]

The head gasket was gone, and a burnt valve
