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. Now that the engine is ready to come out we get Mrs.O. to help us after we pull the front sub frame out of the way. Time to rock and roll!
-Enjoy!

It sounds like the guy from South Main Auto but there is no rust on the car so I am unsure. 😀
Anyone know why my 1995 Chevy Silverado radio will NOT turn off? (Even when the key is turned off completely) I actually had to pull the fuse.
Great video but you had me a little worried when Mrs. O was bringing the lift down. Speaking of Mrs. O she is one of the cutest shop helpers I have ever seen, so I am not sure how you get any work done.
There's no understanding of seconds in this shop.. lol
I can't help but keep thinking of the SCVs in Starcraft… "Big job huh?"
I gotta tell ya Eric, the only way I'd attempt that job is when you looking over my shoulder! An a special thanks to Mrs O for manning the lift!
Mrs O is the best lift operator around.
not sure if i missed it but why leave the engine in the cradle to remove it?
Eric, This video was super informative. Thanks for sharing
silly man when mrs o was letting the lift down the safety were released naughty naughty
It's mind boggling to me all that is required / involved today to remove a power plant…… / drive train assembly .
Eric, your the mark above the mark….. I would have to take the same stance off to the side, thinking, this doesn't look very safe to me. and it didn't…… All the More reason why to pray before and after the days events.
Give GOD the Glory………..
how many miles on this bad motor?
Could place the new engine on a dolly of some sort so you could tweak its position as you lower the car?
Eric- One of the HFT hydraulic lift tables- the heaviest duty one, will handle an Olds 440 with no problem, so it should handle the engine & trans OK. One of the best 300$ I ever spent! We also used it to lift up the old boat anchor rear projection TV sets that weighed way more than that engine & trans combined.
I'm still trying to figure out how this car is only 8 years old with only 15,000 miles and already needs a new engine
Looks like beer thirdy to me
Makes me think of monkey livers and rice for some reason. A korean dish.
long gone are the days when it took 30 minutes to pull a trans or an engine .
Hah.. My Wife would be saying "Lift table or extra life insurance?.. Hmmmm"…:)
