Watch This BEFORE Buying a 6th Gen Camaro (2016+)

[@noahadams1264]

6 gen Camaros that have diff issues are v6 and 4 cyl. Ss camaros especially zl1 have iron cased lsd diffs with hardened axle shafts. The pics you showed are of the aluminium cased diffs. Non SS. Not only do I own a 6 gen, SS 1LE. But I am a GM Certified tech and have been over 15 years. I have never, ever seen a G80 rear diff blown or howling in a ss 6 gen. Other than that good video bro

[@onsidesuccess]

Noah Adams have a 6th gen RS. No problems yet Diff wise. Even though I pretty sure the previous owner treated it like crap

[@redflint7651]

What about fifth gen v6

[@chiefgoose8682]

Noah Adams .....thanks a lot for your professional info.....I feel better now because I too am a owner of a 1LE. A 2018 2SS 1LE to be exact. Only have 5400 miles on it so far after 13 months but so far so good ....no mech issues whatsoever, it’s actually just now breaking-in running and sounding better ( I did obey the proper break-in rules just FYI ). I put Amsoil in it around 800 miles with no metal fragments in the factory oil. I did have to add 3/4 of a quart at 4500 miles but can you explain why the “change oil” indicator ( or oil life percentage indicator) starts coming on at around 3600 miles when GM knows you’re using synthetic oil that should be good up to 10k miles ? Basically right now it’s telling me I have 0% life left in my oil but after checking it the oil looks perfectly fine and as I mentioned it’s damn good oil too. My next mod will be a catch can, maybe help with the having to add oil part but that won’t prevent the change oil indicator coming on prematurely. Just wondering.....any advice or input would be helpful, thanks

[@redflint7651]

Chief Goose I put 5k miles on my fifth gen v6 in the first 3 months lol it has 40k miles now. But I parked her for the last month🙂 I change my oil every 3 k miles and am close to changing diff fluid and transmission fluids

[@chiefgoose8682]

Bible Digger .....yeah lol mine is more of a weekend driver as I’m lucky to have a company work truck and my personal truck that I drive mostly. What kind of oil do you use ? The 6.2 liters require synthetic and I’m not sure about the V6’s . Oh and btw as I’m typing this.....Happy New Year ! At least in my time zone anyway lol

[@Nukeyttv]

Bought mine a month ago. Love this car so much. Great handling, great speed. The blindspots actually aren't that bad at all. Just keep an eye of the rearview mirrors occasionally to check if someone will be eventually behind you. If you are going to buy one, my one tip is to buy an RS or a higher class & buy one with dual exhaust on it.

I am 6ft 1 and over weight, I fit in my 2016 camaro just fine. my only complaints about the car are. the very long doors make it hard to get in and out in tighter parking spots. The car has very little storage in the cabin, the trunk opening is too small. The rear seat on the 6th gen has no head room. But the pluses are, I get very good highway gas mileage. The front seats are very comfortable and I have plenty of leg room. The car is very nimble,fast and fun to drive. the cars handling is superior to it's competition. The cars looks amazing and I have no issues with visibility like many reviews bitch about. my car has no shakes and raddles. The interior lay out is very simple and looks very cool. The exhaust sounds great, even on my 3.6 v6 RS. The features even on the base interior are better than its competitions base interiors. you still get a 7 inch touch screen with android auto,push button start and remote start. automatic climate control and other nice features.

People complain about the visibility 🤦🏽‍♀️. It’s actually not as bad as people complain about. You have to adjust your mirrors to the blind spots and all you have to do is turn your head to see. Also adjust the passenger seat so it’s sitting the bar. I like the 6th gen because it feels more like your sitting in a race car. It’s more snug than the 5th gen. One thing people don’t know is the room issue isn’t as bad as you’d think. The back seats fold down.

In just one week I ended up spending $1,400 on it just for maintenance , and a full tank of premium gasoline lasts maybe 2 and a half days, gas mileage depends mainly on how you are on the gas pedal and how much you play with it.

AmericanGTS scat packs are more of a true muscle car, more roomier, more comfortable, but heavier and not as great for turns. I am in the same boat but thinking much farther out lol. I really love classic cars so the Challenger appeals a bit more in that respect to me personally. Good luck and have fun!

[@AmericanGTS]

EBSting I entirely agree with you on the scat pack. The thing is I was at the dealership ready to pull the trigger on the Charger scat pack but the salesperson wasn't budging at all on my trade in. Matters got worse when he told me my KBB cash value for my trade in is only 13k so his trade in offer of 17k was doing me a HUGE favor according to him to which I replied with a are you fucking kidding me? Plus there was this pressure to purchase their 50k scat pack and that there's no other cheaper ones around which was a blatant lie. Anyway the Camaro 1SS is a lot cheaper.. leaning towards it right now.

They're both great options! Can't go wrong either way!

[@beastmode3465]

Got a 17 SP Challenger. Went through the Costco auto buying program. The MSRP on the window was just under 48K. I got mine for just over 40K using that program. Mine is only missing a couple options. Very easy transaction with no problems. As far as the car goes. Love it. No regrets. As far as performance goes, sure the SS is better for a road course, but for straight line performance, both are very close in that category. I don't live by a track, so would never road race mine anyway. Anyways enjoy whichever you choose to go with.

Well, I have had three 6th generation Camaros, a 2016 with the turbo four with a manual, a 2017 six manual with the npp exhaust, and finally a 2017 SS convertible, which I am totally in love with. I put 5 to 10 thousand on each of these cars with no problems at all. The biggest problem is visibility, you sit low in them, you just have to get used to it. The performance is good on all of them, the sound from the four was not to great, but was a little better when i removed the mufflers, the six had the dual mode exhaust and left it loud all the time, I actually bought it because I liked the sound of one I heard on You Tube. But the best one is my SS, it has an automatic which is not my normal choice, but it works great with this engine, better I think than the manual, I tried both. I did not have the dual mode exhaust on it, so I had the mufflers removed, you need to do this, it sounds so good.

I don't think the rear diff is necessarily a weak point. On the cars with the eLSD (1LE, ZL1) it is recommended to change the fluid around 1500 miles.

I've had no diff problems or half shaft issues and I've taken it to Race Wars, half mile roll/drag races, and even taken it road racing and haven't changed my diff fluid...although I probably will now. The skip shift eliminator kit is pretty awesome. Also I saw some people say that the 5.0 mod for mod has more gains and that is not entirely true. You have a 5.0 vs. a 6.2 the bigger motor would react better to certain mods than others. Plus you have to factor in the tune, the dyno, and the tuner.

I Just bought my V8 Camaro ss convertible automatic and I love it! It's 6.2 liter where as the mustang is 5.0 liter. The Camaro goes 0-60 in 4 flat the mustang in 4.3 The value is amazing. A base model ss for around 30k is very upgradable. You can slap a supercharger and twin turbos for around 10k in parts or alot less if you rebuild some used performance parts. I can build an ss to out perform a ZL1 with 40k cash vs the 50k plus purchase price of the dealership superchargered ZL1. Pros Bigger fuel injection 6.2 liter Brembro brakes Tight steering in track mode The ability to disable traction and stability control The Camaro is made out of metal and feels good to drive. The Corvette is lighter and feels like it can get away from you easier. Sure Corvettes are faster stock, but being in a solid built car like a Camaro has advantages in a wreck. The ability to add aftermarket forced air induction was one of the reasons I bought the ss Camaro. The convertible is a contender on a drag strip, if you go to the trouble of removing the top. To reduce weight but you might as well buy a dragster at that point.

brad baxter convertible camaros weigh more, removing the roof doesn’t help that. The chassis has a lot more reinforcement due to it not having the structural support that a roof gives. And with that. Because you are in a vert, you argument loses credibility because in a vert you are basically fucked.

Convertible makes it a chick car

[@amosgarcia5312]

So I’m looking to buy a Camaro, new preferably 21, but I just saw a 2017 RS at a Toyota dealership with 12k miles for $27k and it has all the bells and whistles one would want to add, spoiler, front splitter, dark tint tail lights, tinted windows. So in your opinion is that a good buy??

[@bradleywells2252]

seats rip where the hard is rubbed by the seatbelts but gm denies knowing about this paint chip in the inside rocker every 6th gen ive seen has this problem my rearend went out at 3000 miles

[@oscarhernandez9867]

Bradley Wells I got mine back in may and probably like a month in and the seat already ripped. So shitty. Other than that Its been amazing

[@benhaze1010]

Thanks Riley for this very informative video. I am quite disappointed GM is still struggling with rear axle/half shafts/driveline robustness. This was a big issue back on CTS-Vs and I would hope GM would have learned how to develop a reliable driveline system since then. It would be a hasty generalization at this point to say it is a chronic problem but it is very concerning to say the least. GM may have cut corners during the vehicle validation which can explain also the interior rattles (not enough cycles on the 4-post shaker).

[@bigmarqis120]

How many miles is considered too much to pay $20,000 for a 6th gen ss??

[@CoCo-Philly]

I already had to take my 17 redline automatic to the dealer for the diff. The was a loud humming sound when cold. It was low on fluid and also there's a slight grinding type of feeling sometimes when it's shifting. Apparently gm or Chevy at least is suppose to be coming out with pam upgrade early next year. I'll put it on my channel one of these days. I had to change the tires to all seasons just because the stock Goodyear's just kept getting nails. Iit is what it is

[@goons123flofy]

Oh yeah, this is right up my alley. I am a prospective buyer for sure.

[@qKJp]

I don’t know what I wanna do, Should I get the 2016 Camaro SS or 2018 1LT

[@prazzy4712]

How would you compare throttle response on this car to a C7? I owned a C7 for 3 weeks and a lack of immediate and crisp throttle response was a huge factor in my decision to sell the car. Gm's throttle programming to control the torque is too conservative on the C7. I wonder if they reprogrammed it for this car.

[@Sierra1_1_7]

Thank you, i am from Switzerland and think will buy next week a 6th gen :))))

[@JCunningham21]

you should replace the diff fluid on all vehicles at 500 and again at 1500. it will be nightfall gray at 500. There is now a fix for the NPP rattle. I have no rattles in my 17 2SS with NPP and a build date of 6/12/16. the only factory problem my car had was scratches on the inner door panels.

[@maryrafuse2297]

Their was a sweet spot for paint quality on some American cars. It was between 1977-79 and the best, thickest, paint was on Ford personal luxury cars. Today the paint on Mustang's and Camaro's is very thin. If you want good paint go to European cars.

[@grimey5.565]

I'm pretty sure all of this stuff that you are mentioning is fairly rare especially the rear diff issue. You do want to upgrade the axles and stub axles that's a given especially if you're going to be launching the car a lot. That is a massive amount of stress for any car that is stock. Not only that, it depends on how bad you beat the car. KZbin has given a great example of truly what people do with their cars and makes me terrified to buy anything used. If you're good to your car it will be good to you too. Nice video.

2019 ss le just brought mine

[@Richoffblu]

$17,000 121,000 miles Camaro 1ss Is it worth it ?

[@JoeSmith-nu8oo]

I only had skip shift happen once or twice and that was when I first got the car, after that I always accelerated above 2000 RPM's to avoid that garbage!

[@isaaclopez4320]

yo this is in tomball tx where im from, im watching this as my parents are buying me one right now!

[@michaelhumel4288]

First time I've heard about the half shaft problem.

[@travisking6300]

I was in double checking my fuses under the hood, I was missing like at least 4or5 fuses plus there is no coolant pump rly the spot location is K-6 from the cover I've been driving this car for almost a year having never looked under there... So should there be a fuse where it says one should be of course with specified amperage?

[@billshoe22191]

Fantastic job on this. Really great info and very hones. Thank you for putting this together

[@averyuecker282]

I really want one but I’m nervous about winter here in Wisconsin

[@norbertcanetejr.7328]

I dont get some of the cons about the car. Like what is the cause or is it a regular thing to happen and how you solve it. Appreciate if anyone tries to explain more about it.

[@Aresfire2]

RP PRO, If I ordered a 2017/18 Camaro SS "without" the NPP Exhaust Option would the car always be in the louder mode or in between? Second, That NPP adds zero torque and H.P correct? With the Stang coming out with a 10 auto and the SS sticking with it's 8 speed I wish I could find the new Torque/H.P #s on the Mustang GT?

[@brandoncooper7432]

the Magnusson-Moss act makes it illegal for a car maker in the U.S. to not honor their warranty due to aftermarket modification. That's just a tactic they use to strongarm and scare consumers with

[@kaleighpruitt4507]

What do u think about the air vents inside? I love everything abojt the 6 gens but they are really the only thing that bothers me. They look live plane jets to me. Idk maybe im too picky...

[@zacharymessner6157]

Damn I’m watching this after I bought one

[@wippoutmy7634]

was it worth it? getting a camaro, cause idk if i should

[@howelld8196]

Have they corrected the blend door issue that was a problem in some of the 5th gen A/C- heat system. Like the one I own looking at 3500 to get this issue resolved

[@redzedracer]

REMEMBER NON V8s ONLY!!!! THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO ZL1 OR SS MODELS. THE SKY ISN'T FALLING HERE. ASK HOW I KNOW.

[@HardBOSS13]

I don't think that clear film would help and it cost the same as paint the whole bumper. After going over 150 mph stones tear hood decal and chip windshield. Also at 150 my hood starts to shake. Will tell to my dealer about it next visit.

[@larryz3985]

Hwllo my question is if car only has normal exoust is only in quit mode or are they loud or is is more a a nutruel tone not quit or loud?

[@psychwardfpv4353]

I want one soooo bad. Have 92 25th anniversary but really want one of the new ones. "The Exorcist" model is awsome!

[@jyreece]

I have the magnaflow exhaust and still had that rattle noise. So I took it to an exhaust shop they cut out the valves. That door rattle is still bothering me I play my music pretty loud tho.

[@ArtsyAllAround]

Great video bro! I just got a Camaro yesterday and I'm super happy!

[@tamimalkawari271]

IS IT A GOOD CAR I WANT ONE SO BAD!!!!!!!!??????

[@K03sport]

what's the oval hole on the a-pillar? I've seen it on other reviews too; it does not make sense to me as to why there would be a hole right there? A light for blind spot monitoring? a hole to make it easier to route wires for performance gauges? Speaking of mods, will R-compound tires void your warranty?

[@Hole_Motorsports]

K03sport just put stock tires back on
