In this video I bring you along as I go through the process of swapping out an engine in a 2015 Cadillac ATS Luxury 2.5L RWD. The customer all ready had the car diagnosed at another shop and brought me the used engine to install. No diagnosis needed 👍🏼
-Enjoy!

That 2.5 is a derivative of the 2.4. What could go wrong?
Is Service Data the same thing as All Data?
15000 miles bad motor? Used motor could be 100000 miles. Are they bad motors? Still has a 15000 mile car!
I find it really funny that half of the video is just removing all the plastic. It's wild how much plastic/rubber/etc. they put all over these modern cars!!!
great video, preparing the trans for removal, that is as vague an instruction as there is. wow. As usual using a degree of skepticism when reading the step by step that they may have not fully explained something or may have explained one thing intending for the reader to understand that they meant another thing is beneficial for the mental health of the technician. I always like to read ahead a few steps to be sure that I get where they are going…still that may or may not be enough to get through a phase of disassembly. great video. I don't mind multi-video projects. It is what it is, and if you are attempting to put on display the day to day life of a mechanic then that will happen. not everything can be done in 30 minutes and retain informative or entertainment value.
2.5 is a base model engine… Sounds like they should have opted for a 2.0T or 3.6
My cousin only had his harley, rode to work in the snow.
Wouldn’t do this myself! But like watching the pros at south main do it!!! Did a couple V8’s way back in the day, last one was a V8 in a Dodge Dakota cousins truck.
At 15:11, did we hear you say "come on Chevy" to a Cadillac?
Hmm ,now I gotta wonder if you open your mouth. Do you pee faster?
This must be one expensive job.
I am curious how many miles on her. Also curious about how it failed.
