Here's why i'm never doing this job like this. P06DD

3.6 Pentastar Oil Pump Solenoid P06DD

[@dealerauctionnightmare4689]

I remember when oil pumps were just oil pumps. No failure-prone solenoids to control flow.

Chain driven oil pump?? Videos like this make me want to change oil OFTEN!!

[@therandomchannel2022]

Better than the belt driven oil pump Ford uses

[@Hubjeep]

@@therandomchannel2022 Yikes! I hope to keep my 20+ year old vehicles even longer. 200,000+ miles on them.

[@tagged980]

Amén keep oil fresh and keep em maintained.

[@nsroutdoors7871]

I had to swap a pump on a 4x4 ram pentastar with 70k customer didnt do theyre maintenance the solenoid was on bo so i went with the new pump only cost 30-40 more

[@rolanddaniel3060]

They're all made in the same place just what name they put on them

[@Drift.SC1]

I do just the solenoid. Takes maybe an hour only remove lower pan.

[@OnlineMechanicTips]

Really?

[@Drift.SC1]

@@OnlineMechanicTips ya cut the wires and connect the new solenoid. It may be a "hack" job but pass the savings to my customers....they appreciate it. Ive done a dozen or so no combacks. I do use techsmsart over dooorman tho lol

[@jeffferg8498]

VW does not use such a complex design in ea888 motors. First time i have seen it up close on a Pentastar V6.

[@OnlineMechanicTips]

Interesting my dude

[@jamram9924]

There are oil starvation issues due to this solenoid.

[@danielrudisel7263]

It only makes sense

[@Billybadass219]

More unnecessary junk on engines that is unnecessary just on there to sell something else to you you don’t need.

[@jeffferg8498]

Why would such a complex item fail if proper maintenance has been maintained.

[@OnlineMechanicTips]

A solenoid of any kind can fail at any time. Nothing really complex about a solenoid. The pump usually ok

[@briankissel7661]

Why would you pronounce Doorman as Dure-men? It’s a double fault. I know I sound like a jerk for asking but you sound silly in your videos saying it super wrong. Cruel to be kind.

[@JohnDickerson-zw5ij]

Hey, I got a question. Does Chevy put those 3.6 liter penastars in the Colorado?? If so, what issues are they known for?
