This is great! I have a friend who has that car and could use this help.

[@hoodratsgarage77]

Nice! Good luck haha

I have a 2019 Cruz...any idea if it's very similar?

[@hoodratsgarage77]

If it is a 4 cylinder ecotec engine, it will be in a similar location, which needs to be changed from underneath the vehicle.

I should have done this while I was changing my water pump

[@hoodratsgarage77]

Oof, thats funny cus the water pump on this car went out about a year later! Yeah, it's always nice to kill two birds with one stone! Thankfully, it's not horribly difficult to do. Thanks for watching and commenting, goof luck on your future repairs

@@hoodratsgarage77 I was looking for a way to access the alternator so I could do the big 3 electrical upgrade and came across this video. Definitely what I was looking for.
