2.2 Ecotec Start

A video of me staring the 2.2L Ecotec engine in my 2003 Cavaleir.

At 180 000+ Kms, this car still runs very well and runs and starts better than our 2006 Mitsubishi Outlander with only 102 000 Kms!

Keep up oil changes with synthetic high quality and keep your car clean and components oiled and you will easily pass 300 000 K.

A bone stock, economy car, AWESOME!!! I watched the whole thing waiting for something slightly interesting to happen. I was sorely disappointed, and you owe me three minutes for the time I spent watching this and typing a reply. Remake this video with a hot girl in a bikini pointing at the things of interest, and have her rev it to the redline after you install a turbo. I'd give that a thumbs up!

BTW, if you change the oil on time and don't use the cheap crap, that rattling noise goes away

@jri350 I'll see what I can do!

I'm sure the rattling is piston slap, after a minute it dissapears and I checked the timing chain and its good.

It gets $45 synthetic oil, cheap stuff is well, cheap stuff...

160,000 miles on my 2.2 ecotec only engine part I changed was the fuel pump

They are really good engines. I have a 2011 HHR with the 2.2 and I imagine I'll be driving it for a long long time. :)
