I've been tearing down engines on camera for 2 and a half years! Search my channel to see what I've torn down.
Since we tore down a Maserati F160 Twin Turbo V6 last week, and that engine is based on the 3.6 Pentastar, I figured it would be *Most* appropriate to teardown a Pentastar this week! Its also been a minute since we had a really blown up engine on the channel.
This is a 3.6L V6 from a 2012 Dodge Charger, a Pentastar V6. This engine was widely used in Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/Ram products starting in 2012. It makes just over 300horse power and are relatively fuel efficient in the process. These engines do have some failure points but the failure in this engine I believe is unrelated to "Common problems"
Why on Venus am I doing these teardowns? I own and run a full service auto salvage business in the Saint Louis area called Importapart. Part of our model is buying blown, core and unwanted engines and dismantling them to resell the good, usable parts. We do not rebuild engines, we merely supply parts to those who do.
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!
