Today we are tearing down a core 1.6L Turbodiesel out of a 2018 Equinox. Yes, GM put this 2nd generation Cruze Diesel engine into the Equinox and the Terrain! They're fairly rare which is why I jumped on the chance to buy this engine for the video. This engine is a Fiat/GM Coop, and has actually be available in most world markets for the last 10 years. It came to North America as the LH7, producing 137hp and 240ftlbs of torque. While I do know miles on this engine, 121K, I don't always get all of the details as to why an engine was replaced. We tear this engine down to try to piece together what happened, and what parts I can salvage from it.

Why am I doing this? My name is Eric and I own/run a full service auto recycling business called Importapart. Part of our model includes dismantling blown up and core engines and selling the good parts. We do not rebuild engines, merely sell parts to those who do. Every week you can find at least one new teardown on this channel.

I really hope you enjoyed this teardown. As always, I love all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism. Catch you on the next one!

Eric
