[@reallydistracted1]

MotorCity Mechanic - I am amazed that you do this level of instruction for common folk like me. I have a 132k 2012 Chrysler T&C and used your videos to replace all of the lifters, rockers, a camshaft, plugs, and oil cooler (metal replacement). The coil boots were ok. It worked perfectly! The engine is now quiet and powerful and feels like new. My mechanic wouldn't even touch it, said he would be willing to swap engines with a recycled engine, but not replace the above. I greatly appreciate the assistance, please keep making great videos. Lunch is on me.👏

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Many thanks!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

I never understand why techs won’t work I them. There are over 12,000,000 on the road and in a lot of Chrysler videos. As you saw….it can be done, just need to take your time. Personally I rather do this then an engine

[@stevenstewart2898]

My mechanic said the same thing I'll replace the engine but I can fix that.

[@reallydistracted1]

@stevenstewart2898 You can do it. My van is still running great. Like he said, take your time, do a step at a time. I tag my connections, write every step down as I did it. Came back together perfectly. Good luck, post your results. Thank again @MotorCityMechanic

[@ricvanwinkle1665]

This is like 3.6 Pentastar for dummies and that’s a great compliment as you made it so easy to fully understand how to do a very intricate job for most. I have mechanical skills, but for anyone just learning you’re the perfect teacher. Thanks again 🎉🎉🎉

Never thought about calling it that before 😂. I will take it as a compliment and many thanks! Make sure to subscribe

[@2nickles647]

Thank you. Im about to start on my grand daughter charger. Just wanted to follow up. Following your instructions, I completed replacing all 4 cams. With Rocker arms and lifters. I discovered 4 busted lifters. Plus the broken rockers arms. I had already removed the intake manifold and valve covers as a preliminary inspection. I put them back in place temporarily until my parts arrived. This fine morning, I completed the work. I did run into a minor snag. On the left side, the tool to keep the chains loose, popped out, but no problem. I just got the left side cams replaced, took me about 10 minutes of getting the tool back on the head. Then got the work done. Took me about 4.5 hours total. Then the final assembly. Then the much anticipated start. Rattle for 3 seconds and quieted down. Cleared my codes, did some phazer cleaning with my scan tool. Did the cam learning part. Runs very smooth and quiet. Thank you sir.

[@wickedridge4x4]

This man has saved me so much money. Just replaced one camshaft all 12 rocker's and lifters on the right side.

Just knocked this job out on my 2013 Durango. Thank you so much for the step by step. These are the most thorough videos (part 1 & 2) for this repair that I found. 👍

Did you do both sides? How long did it take you?

Literally the most thorough video I've seen on this topic by a landslide! Massive thanks to this guy and all the effort he put in! I'll now comfortably be attempting this repair 🤞

[@NateM13]

@@christopherbrown3614 It went well, just go slow and take your time. It's been running quiet for a while now. However I only did one side and I wish I would have done but since I was so far in the engine anyway. Might as well

[@altruismfirst6489]

best video ever to sell my Chrysler asap as Im going back to Honda where you never need to do this as its as if Chrysler planned this by selling the tools required while Honda doesnt.

[@jadams2697]

I was torn between living with the tick and causing further damage or paying large sums of money to a franchise mechanic shop. I just successfully completed replacing 2 cams and all of the rockers and lifters in my 2014 Town and Country and I wouldn't have attempted it if it had not been for your video. With many of the automotive shops now charging labor @ $125 per hour - and higher- and with their monster markup on the price of parts too, owning and maintaining an out-of-warranty vehicle is becoming almost economically impossible for a lot of folks that may live on the lower end of the money ladder. Of course, buying a new or used car is out of the question for many people these days as well. High quality (best I've seen!) videos such as yours gives us a fighting chance! Well done Sir and THANK YOU!

[@JohnDoe-rr7xq]

Caution, I found loose oil galley plugs, check these upon disassembly. Between the cylinder head and the timing chain and gear, there are two oil galley plugs (bolts). These oil galley plugs are threaded and have a 13 mm head. On bank two at 140K miles, I found both bolts loose and working their way out. As a long retired engine builder, I found this to be an outstanding video and very helpful. Attention to detail is paramount and this guy has it.

[@jeremycook5393]

This 2 part series was absolutely perfect! Everything you need to know and nothing you don’t, plus clear and concise. I’m a professional tech, but I’m about to do this job for the first time, and I have the tool kit, but the video visual of the special tools vs the service manual has given me complete confidence in tackling this job. Thanks!

[@markveen4103]

Excellent work Mr. Pike! I am so appreciative of the meticulous detail in this video. I have 50 years experience as a mechanic, Certified Master Tech in 1986 and I must say that I am extremely impressed with your effort!! Thank you Sir!!

[@zxborg9681]

Thank you so much for putting this series together. I'm a shadetree Jeep guy up in Canada, and I just did rockers and lifters, both sides, plus oil cooler, plugs, and PCV valve, on my 2012 Wrangler. Most complex job I've ever done. I probbably watched these two videos five or ten times each to prepare and was fast forwarding and replaying them in the garage as I worked. Plus a bunch of your other Pentastar vids. Successful project that never in a million years would I have thought I could pull off a few years ago. Mind blown. Many, many thanks to your excellent and clear explanation.

[@jhammphoto]

The most comprehensive video I’ve seen on this- well presented and organized. Thank you

My 2016 Jeep Wrangler/Rubicon has 29.400 miles and just stopped running one day on the way home from the store, It will not start, does turn over but just can't start, TRIES TO , My mechanic says after a bit of checking that its probably a broken cam or parts associated to it, Off the top of your head, what would you guess is wrong? the noise is on the right side, Nothing real loud or grinding, thanks,

[@TOMAS-lh4er]

HI , Up date,!! My mechanic said he did not remove valve cover on the right side but did hear noises like a lifter problem AND he pulled all 3 plugs on the right side and found gas all over the plugs and some in all e cylinders,

[@PaulBelkin]

All done and the ticking is gone. One tip. When doing the right (back head) there is very little clearance to put the 36mm socket on the oil nut that attaches the phaser to the cam. I cut the special tool that is wedged between the sprockets to allow access to the rear one to torque it to the 118 ft/lbs. Also when using the tool to release the chain tension, I used a little never seize on the outside part of the tool. This allows it to slide it easier. Great video!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

I did the exact same thing lol. I have always wished I mentioned that in the video.

[@vpsbiker]

Perfect tutorial, felt like I was watching an online class. Feeling pretty confident attempting this repair now.

[@therealRustyShackleford]

Probably the most photographed video on KZbin because that's how Gen X dads fixing the family car rolls.

Great video as always David. Keep up the great work. Am 68 with a back that hurts so probably try and have someone else do it or take me a few weeks. Try and find a kid that wants to learn and teach them something. I know easier said then done these days. When I was 12 I would jump at helping people at the gas station just as long as they taught me at the same time as I was helping them. I did not want any money just knowledge. I cleaned a lot of parts but they showed me how things came apart and went back together. That was priceless.

I’m starting this tomorrow on my wife’s van. Due to inflation I can’t afford to take it somewhere we are already in the edge with groceries, gas, and rent.

This has to be the best KZbin tutorial video I have ever watched. Thank you for doing it and explaining everything so well. You saved me a ton of money. I was going to try it but I wouldn’t have known about releasing the tension. After I got it going, I changed oil and the spring in the oil filter went flying, you showed me what that problem was as well. I owe you lunch or a beer, can I PayPal you a tip?

Sometimes its just about seeing it laid out step by step to make it feel easy. I try my best to get as many camera angles to point out those details that others leave out

[@paullongfellow3720]

Thank you, thank you. I only ran in to 1 problem. That was when I assembled my 1st cam I put cam back in at 30° out in the rest position. I did not realize that the cam phaser and the cam were slotted. That held me up for about an hour and I thought for sure that I had done some major damage. But once I relaxed, I realized and rotated the cam back and lined up the holes and everything assembled very easily. Once again, thank you you gave me the confidence to try this on my own and save money. Please continue.

[@dk3323]

Thank you very much for the excellent videos on this Pentastar engine. My 3.6 L was ticking so I took the top off the engine with your help. I was just going to replace the one sloppy but working rocker on #5 which was the only cylinder throwing a code. I wasn’t going to pull the valve cover on the left side. But I then decided to replace all the rockers and lifters. I discovered about 6 spongy lifters on both sides and about 3 rockers that had rollers that were a little sloppy. BUT I had a rocker arm roller seized on the driver side intake that didn’t even throw a code! That cam lobe was almost perfectly round! So, 24 lifters, 24 rockers, and one new cam, all Melling brand. I immediately changed the oil and filter and have put a couple thousand miles on it…..no clicking and no engine lights! Parts were close to 1,000 bucks but much better than the $5,000 the dealership wanted. THANKYOU for helping give this electrician the confidence to tackle this project!

Keep up the great work. It's really nice to see how clean stuff is too, even if our shops have messy areas, lets keep this area clean and neat for the video. Great job, I know it took hours to get this edited just right. You did an awesome job man. The sound quality is great, camera angles great, torque sequence proper. Very cool on putting numbers on the bolt heads/Torx. Keep it clean, Jim

@@adrianallen3406 I pulled the bank 1 (rear) valve cover and had two cam lobes so badly worn it needed to be replaced. I figured at that point I should see what was up with the other and the cams were ok but there were a few bad rockers. Based on the cost it turned out to be less expensive to replace the motor so it's at a shop having that done now.

[@BlueberryFarm900]

I closely followed all steps in this two-part series to replace the valvetrain components in the left head of my 2015 Wrangler's ticking 3.6 Pentastar at 60K miles. There was, indeed, a bad lifter and exhaust rocker arm. After a couple of weeks of road and freeway use, the motor is still purring and I'm confident my repair is successful and going to hold up. I could not have done it without your incredible guidance, David! I've been intimidated to get any lower than the top of the valve covers for 30 years since a younger, tool-challenged me screwed up a couple of engines. Yet here I am a short time ago, confidently holding my Jeep's camshaft for reference photos! Furthermore, since I live in Western Washington where parts and repair costs are HEAVILY inflated, between this and my horribly-located PCV valve change, I saved myself nearly $5K! A well-earned gift is coming your way, my friend! Thank you on behalf of my whole family.

[@tethmthero]

These two videos you made were perfect. ALMOST I say almost because one small thing that could have been pointed out could have saved me from having to buy an engine. You covered every little detail and every little problem that could come up making the whole job run very smoothly except for I. Small but very important tip. When torquing down the oil control valves, DO NOT RELY SOLELY ON THE LOCKING BLOCK. Use a crescent wrench on the hex on the camshaft as an additional safety to maintain cam shaft position. Unfortunately, my locking block failed and I rotated the camshaft independent from the engine pushing the valves I to the piston. I didn’t realize how badly I messed it up till I fully reassembled the job and went to crank it with zero compression. I had to buy a new engine as I was already in past my comfort level with this job and had nowhere near the experience to go further Into it. This little tip could have saved me $6300. Aside from my mishap, everything else was perfect in this video and went as smooth as can be. I’m confident I could successfully do the job now but I wish I had this bit of information before and only saw it after the fact.

[@Japplesnap]

That's a tough pill to swallow. There's definitely a fair amount of risk for someone taking on a job like this without being a trained/experienced mechanic. If you would have verified that the timing was correct before attempting to start the engine, you would have caught your error and prevented the damage.

[@user-kh5qo3nv6z]

As a lifetime mechanic that’s fixing to do rockers on one of these. Your video is awesome. I have no questions now on using the cam wedge kit to do this job

[@rickvarro313]

Heh, something very important! I just stumbled across a KZbin short about catastrophic engine failures on these due to the 13mm oil galley bolts (right below the cam phasers) coming loose and/or falling out. They either chew up the phaser sending metal parts into the engine, also causing a loss of oil pressure. Some mechanically lock up the engine too. Ugh. While your video was otherwise perfect for this job, I decided to check my bolts, and although mine weren't walking out yet, they had no torque left on them....they were just barely seated, so I'd call them loose, and I'm only at 60,000 miles. I was too nervous to remove the phaser from the chain to get to these with a socket. (torque spec is 9ft/lbs - some have run them up to 20 with no trouble), so here is what I did. One by one, I loosened each one off about 4 threads with an open ended wrench and my fingers, then tucked a microfibre towel underneath the loose bolt. I then sprayed a little brake cleaner on the threads to get as much oil as possible off of the threads, then dried it with a shot of compressed air. I then put a small tube on my Loctite 262 bottle to extend it's reach and applied a liberal amount of red Loctite to the threads. I ran them up and got them nice and snug with the open end of a 13mm wrench. It a really tight spot, but I was able to get all 4 of them. I didn't dare remove the bolts all the way for fear of dropping them down in there, or even being able to re-start the threads, and apparently you don't want to get magnets anywhere near the cam phasers. So I did the best I could without pulling the timing cover off which would add hours and complexity to the lifter/roller-rocker replacement I'm doing. Very pathetic that Stellantis would use steel bolts like this in aluminum heads to plug oil galleys and not have any sort of thread sealer / locking agent or other more durable method to ensure they won't come out. An allen head pipe plug with thread seal would be a much better choice! For those reading this, CHECK YOUR GALLEY BOLTS! Not much point in dropping in $500 worth of lifters & rockers if it's just gonna go bang from a bolt that falls out soon! I decided to tackle this first before proceeding with the work shown in this video. Now that I've tacked this (it was tricky) moving on with the rest! Cheers!

This is literally like a mechanic class... by far the best 1 on youtube and I've seen alot

[@buckhamilton3905]

David is the absolutely GOAT. A master mechanic...definitely...but also has the heart of a teacher and some mad videography skills. It's one thing to know how to do the repair but it's a whole other talent to be able to tell and show others how to do it and yet another level to be able to video it in a way that makes it crystal clear. I've used several of his videos with great success, including this one. This was the first time I ever pulled a camshaft and it went so smooth it was scary. Found the #4 exhaust rocker arm on the left bank was bad (although, per David's advice, replaced them all) and now no more noise. Take your time, follow his every word, and you'll have zero problems in the tear down/replacement/assembly. Great job!!

David - this two part series, along with your video where you recommended to upgrade the 2013 Jeep Wrangler JK oil filter housing to the 2014 model, gave my son Austin and me the confidence to tackle the replacement of the left side rocker arms, followers, and cam shafts, the oil cooler housing, and all six spark plugs all at the same time. We spent last Saturday and Sunday taking it slow and easy and constantly referring back to your videos. It was such a good feeling when we started the engine and the ticking and CEL for the oil pressure sensor were both gone! Thanks so much for producing these videos and taking the time to explain the process so that non-mechanics can understand it to the point of actually giving it a try. We have never been this deep into an engine before. It was a little scary, but it worked out just as you said it would. We have subscribed to your channel and look forward to learning something new each time.

In the middle of doing my rocker arm replacement in a 2014 jeep grand cherokee and was only going to do the one rocker that was bad but this video series has shown me a lot i didnt know about cam shafts and motor timing in the 3.6 these videos have helped me with giving confidence on getting the job done and replacing all 24 rocker arms and lifters in my jeep. This is the first in motor work that I have done to any vehicle being a dyi'er so thank you for putting videos out like this!! For sure has helped me believe I can do more than just bolt on and off parts!

[@mamrich1818]

Thank you so much for making these videos, you saved me thousands!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

[@malibuStroker]

[@AlexGarcia-ne1ox]

From Texas. Amigo...best video ever. Straight to the point...hasta la vista

[@TroyStevensStelzerPaintingInc]

I don't even have this engine but your Part 1 vid was so good I had to see Part 2. It did not disappoint. Thank you for a perfectly clear, fluff-free, informative video.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

I appreciate kind words such as this. I’m glad to always hear how much people enjoy the videos.

[@jeffhenry7319]

Utterly amazing! This is the most helpful and informational video I have ever seen.

[@WinterRider]

Just wanted to say THANK YOU ❤ I did all my rockers and lifters this eve and being able to just remove the camshaft completely make things so easy. I couldn't have done it without such clear explanations. Thanks again!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Like I tell everyone else that has completed this repair…..may hats off to you on taking on a big job like this. I appreciate you using my videos and for leaving feedback as well. Job well done!

[@jasonalbright1568]

Getting ready to do this job tomorrow on a 2012 200. Got the 24 rockers and lifters in a oil bath. Fantastic 2 part video series. I've done a few of these and your dead on as far as information goes. This is the best on you tube.

[@ronaldmahoney1283]

David, you pay attention to detail, and your instructions are right on target! There's only one way to do to do the job right, and that's with the right tools and torque! I wish more videos were explained in detail like you do! Thank You!

[@TheAtxathlete]

And yes the best most detailed informative videos I’ve seen on working on Dodge vehicles, I really appreciate the information, I just don’t have the tools and rather you do or assist me in doing the work on my car you seem very professional, ethical and the right , honest , trust worthy tech , there should be more techs like you !!!

[@dannykinsey4307]

Just wanted to say thanks for your videos!! My town and country developed the tick and had a bad rocker arm. Thanks to your video i was able to replace them all myself! And you saved me money from buying a new RI camshaft with your other video on when to reuse. Your awesome dude!

[@BrinksExotics]

Thanks David! I finished a cam shaft, rocker arms and lifter replacement last night. You saved me a bunch of money. By far the best videos on KZbin for this job. Thanks again!

[@Krankie_V]

thanks for this! The job doesn't sound as intimidating now, knowing that these tools exist to keep the chains in place while pulling the cams. I'm about to buy a van with this engine, and failing rocker arms are my biggest fear with the 3.6

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Hopefully you never have to but if you do just take your time

[@MiKe-fg1el]

Followed, repair successful. 53k mile JKU trail toy back up and purring after following this. Thank you for the info. Awesome video

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Great job on taking on this big repair.

[@rufinoamparo7479]

Great video, David. Just replaced the water pump on my keep wrangler and it came out almost perfect. Your the best instructor on line so far clear and precise in my opinion. Will keep watching your other videos in the future, thanks.

[@KevinW8BRY]

Thanks so much for the video! Just purchased a Charger with this engine in it that the municipality I bought it from was not willing to mess with. Look forward to getting it done myself!

[@Samuel_Clemens]

This video and the part 1 gave me the confidence to tackle this repair on my own...saved me hundreds of dollars if not more.

[@JoseMfly]

It's the same procedure for a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit ? What a great job and easy to understand, I congratulate you.

[@wfoguy]

Thank you once again. You saved me from buying a service manual to use once. :)

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Glad I could help and thanks for find the channel and the videos. Make sure to subscribe

[@Marc-io3ud]

Your two videos on this were outstanding; helped this DYI complete this repair in his garage. Thorough and understandable. Thank you.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Awesome. Glad it worked our well for you and thanks for watching and using the video.

[@robdavis1176]

What a great job you did on explaining how to do this procedure. You went the extra mile with the visual que's as well. Well done sir.

[@jacobcoltson2578]

HUGE Thank you! I can barely change my oil and I followed every step of this 2 part series and was able to replace my cam shaft, rocker arms, and lifters. I was able to get back on the road in no time and drove back to Louisiana from Michigan with no issues!

[@johncarstein6391]

David thanks for your helpful and thorough video. I have just finished changing lifters and rocker arms on my chrysler 300c. Running smoothly again thank you.

[@thegeekdreams]

David, you’re the best. As always, thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with this community. God bless. 🙏🙏❤️❤️

[@hamelthvillalobos4555]

Great detailed video. Just had my 2014 JK rocker arm go bad. Dealer wanted 1800 to fix, I was considering shortcut, until I saw this video. Glad I found it, because the shortcut version made me nervous. The hardest part was the cam sensor and removing the battery tray. Took my time and changed all my rockers on the passenger side, even though it was just one bad one. Now my Jeep purrs like new!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Great job….not an easy repair even for a pro. Appreciate the comment
