Lovely Video clip! Sorry for the intrusion, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you considered - Trentvorty Safe Vehicle Theorem (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a good one off product for discovering how to repair your car the simple way minus the headache. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my buddy finally got cool results with it.
I owned a 2010 Buick Lacrosse. I love it!!! The moment I laid eyes on it, I knew this car belongs to me. My daughter called me and asked me if I seen the new Buick Lacrosse and I said yep! And, I’m going to get it. She said, she wanted to get it too, but it doesn’t makes sense having two Lacrosse’s in the family. I then said, I guess your gonna have to find another car. So far no problems. Basic yearly inspections. Pass every time. 70K miles after 13 years. I’m retired and don’t travel much. It rides new every time. It still looks great. Needs new rear shocks. $60/parts, do it yourself buying the part online. Otherwise, it still running great. Many mechanics at the dealership compliment me on how well the car been taking care of. When you’re blessed with a nice car by God, you really should take good care of it and it will take care of you. No serious…out of the pocket money yet to put in this car. That’s a blessing! I tell everybody to buy this Lacrosse. It’s a great reliable car. I’ve been a Buick owner all my life.
I have a 2014 Buick LaCrosse Premium 1 3.6 FWD and thankfully, I've been able to fix the issues myself like replacing the vent valve solenoid in my vapor canister box that caused me to fail my emissions test, fuel rail sensor, camshaft position sensors, spark plugs and ignition coils and my two front wheel hub bearing and assembly, sway bar links in the front and of course change my own oil regularly. In addition, i did my front and rear rotors and brake pads. Now, the next thing is replacing my struts in the front and shocks in the rear and cleaning my fuel injectors. I hope i won't need any new fuel injectors. That'll be $400 for 6 of them. Owning a car is a big responsibility. Being able to fix quite a bit of your own issues is a big help and something to be proud of.
Just bought this car in 2021 with 13k miles on it. It’s in mint condition and I love it. From the exterior to the interior they did a really nice job on this car.
The only down side i have with mine is the winter time snow it front wheel drive it does get stuck smh but it’s a cool spring summer fall car, oh yeah and no where to rest your left foot so that’s annoying
Family’s had a 2013 LaCrosse leather group with the 3.6L since brand new. Love the Intellilink system and it’s still pretty peppy 9 years later. An awesome car and it will always be one of my favorites.
Same here I have a 2011 CXL edition and I love this car leather heated seats very comfortable and sleek. Maintenance oil regularly and she just hit 200K miles mostly highway but still eats the highway up. Got up to 134 before I got off it with no problems keep pushin "Silver Bullet" 💯🙏💪

I would change out the antifreeze vent line (not exactly sure that is the term). It is a small plastic line that runs from the antifreeze reservoir to the passenger side of the engine. The new ones are metal and not plastic. Ours broke and luckily it didn't toast the engine.
2010 Lacrosse best car I've ever owned, 205,000 miles (many of that on rural gravel roads and on oil field lease roads) and still runs like a top. Only major repair has been to replace the AC compressor at 140k and the starter at 195k the key is regular maintenance and maybe a little luck. will have to replace the rear shocks before long
Sadly, I had to retire my dad's 2011 Lacrosse which I inherited 4 years ago when he passed away. My dad had no problems with the car. He did replace the tires and battery. It was downhill for me. The computer system went out without warning 2 years ago and was replaced. Last week same problem, dead computer. The mechanic also found a leak in the oil tank. I sent the car to the junk man with a tear in my eye. It was a beautiful car, 75,000 miles.
@@wlbrobinson The car died twice without warning while I was on the road. To replace the computer a second time made no sense after just two years, prohibitively expensive. I do miss the car.
My '02 Regal recently stalled out and left me stranded. The lights on the instrument clustered flashed on and off, and the engine failed to crank. After sitting for a couple of days of sitting, the engine turned over. The tow truck driver mentioned that a faulty alternator can cause unusual electrical symptoms.
Truly appreciate this video. I have a 2010 lacrosse 3.0 it runs pretty solid but I definitely had ABS stability track issues. It's crazy I hear many people talk about this issue and a lot of people don't know that if the speed sensor is bold you have to change the hub because they're connected
Hi All, I do appreciate your honesty as well. Not many will walk you through this. As a woman that knows nothing about cars always feel that I’m being taken advantage of. I have 2012 Buick lacrosse leather for almost 10 months luckily low miles but it was time for a inspection. Found out it needed tires all around and some other stuff I had no clue what it was and it cost me whopping $3000. Smh Haven’t even had car for year yet ughhhh Anyways, I always hear a light noise when driving any idea what that is?
I own a 2010, & still love driving it. These are great cars, but pre-maintenance is key. All cars will need repairs sooner or later but it matters how you maintain these vehicles.
2012 lacrosse with 72k i got it at 50k only had 1 issue Ac compressor went out. Had a aftermarket warranty company fix it no outta pocket for me. Other than that great car i did alot of proactive maintenance. Trans flush, coolant flush, evap cleaning, throttle body cleaning, new spark plugs, new battery, new water pump, regular oil change of course and new tires/rear shocks i work at a dealership so i get everything discounted and techs work on my car for dirt cheap. Overall the lacrosse is a good car but you gotta fork over the money when its due and sometimes its good to just be proactive and do routine maintenance. Aka more than just oil changes it cost to maintain a reliable vehicle always remember that
Not bad at all. Only issue I have with mine is the infotainment system, that it sometimes goes mental when playing mp3s from a flash-thingy. Often, it'll "forget" where it was and play one saaaaaaaaaaaame song (to the point where you get sick of it) vs the one that was last playing. That, and forever "indexing..." when restarted. When adding new songs, be sure to change the volume name so it'll reindex the whole thing as a new "disc". Otherwise, you may run into an album that plays duplicates, ie, song 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, etc., instead of 1, 2, 3, etc.
Thanks for being honest about the timing chain. I had my share of Audi timing belts going bad , having a chain i thought would last longer. I have a 2011 Buick Regal in the driveway , beautiful looking car with a new transmission but the motor has a timing problem. I might just junk it.
2011 Buick lacross CXL. 124,777 miles on it. More reliable then my bmw. I changed the waterpump, battery , spark plugs, breaks and rotors. This car is a tank if you take care of it. I am changing the alternator with my stimulus check. My only issue is that damn Onstar module. That shit never works.
@@JcLazy1 bought mine in May of 2020 @109000km and it is a solid vehicle. I run delivery and it gets maintained daily. Oil change every month & 1/2 because of the amount I drive. It is a dream vehicle and could not have asked for a better deal. ✌🇨🇦👍
Just bought a 2011 Lacrosse CXL 150k. Same day I transferred the title it lit up like a Christmas tree with misfires and purge valve related issues. Changed plugs and purge valve so we’ll see how things go the next few days. I’ve had 3 Buicks and they were all great cars which is why I bought another
Had the water pump go on mine really early, always wheel bearings going bad. AC doesn't work. Slips a bit from 1st to second gear. It still runs though...
Great Video, Good Explaining. The Door Problems Also Happened To The Buick Regals My Brother Had A 2010, Towards The End A Nightmare. Please Do A Video On What To Lookout For On Water Damaged Vehicles Like Brand New, Low Milage Ones, Thank You.
Great video. The problems I've had with my 2013 buick lacrosse, purchased in 2016 with 42K miles were (and this in order): 1. Water in trunk (it was either the sunroof or tail lights that had a bad seal) covered under warranty thankfully, dealership said around $350-$500, between there i cant remember 2. Hub bearings in the front (I got the abs/stability system error but noticed it driving weird) also covered under warranty, don't recall the price 2. Alternator went bad, $500 fix plus the battery, not covered under warranty 3. Water pump went bad, covered under warranty, $500 to fix if i had to pay out of pocket 4. Catalytic converter went bad, $630 fix out of pocket 5. Mass flow index senor went bad, this set off a check engine light, $200 fix out of pocket 6. Rear view mirror fell off, had to be re-bond by a glass company, $20 7. Right rear shock broken, $500 fix 7. Water in foot well of passenger and rear right passenger, $ to be determined. 2 weeks later and $700 later, it was the rear windshield seal and rear passenger door firewall I have 120K miles on it now. Idk if I'd get it again honestly, maybe it was made on a Monday. I love the way it drives and looks and I'm very thankful the engine and transmission are all great. I hope to get another 120K miles out of it
if you have a sunroof theirs a tube in the truck (passenger side) that comes loose , but you have to take the side panel off to get to it. i had the same problem. so i Used a tie rap to hold it on , hope that helps
Only major problem I've had on my 2011 Buick LaCrosse CXL is cold starts occasionally, bought it from the dealership in December of 2010 an it has 162k miles but I've also heard from my buddy that works at the Buick dealership the cream color models from 2011 rarely showed up to the shop for major problems
Oh, the drain hoses from the sunroof. Completely plugged. Bracket that holds the hose on the sunroof side has a bar across it so I can't get a 1/8" snake down it, at best I could only poke a brake/gear cable from a bicycle, which "bottoms out" at a bend somewhere just before it exits. No idea where's the outlet near the wheels, either, as there are no obvious holes, else I'd snake the hoses from down there, upward. Roof area floods and ruined the sunroof switch after leaking so much, even stained the upper area of the A-pillar.
I love my 2011 lacrosse. But so far I have the wheel speed sensor issue, a/c clutch is bad, I think my timing chain need to be replaced but no codes yet. And a dummy light that says to service stabilitrack and also service brake assist
@@scottgreig1725 lol I'm still riding with it... I've been out of work and had back surgery so money is so tight I had to just let it go for a while. From the research I've done it's a speed sensor on one of the hubs that isn't too hard to replace
I just replace the timing in mine! I have h to r hybrid so it started re-cranking itself on its on which made the started go out! Altogether $2300 from Buick to replace!
Ive had to replace my injectors, wheel bearing on right passenger side, entire A/C system, spark plugs twice, the catalytic converter broke and had to be welded back on, a broken belt that destroyed my radiator, shocks on rear, the radiator fluid tank cracked after two years, and now it is leaking radiator fluid again, a/c compressor went out, front shocks need replaced and sway bar ..... this car is the worst Ive had and I bought it brand new in 2011 oh and not to mention it got towed home after it broke down last night while I was at my daughters volleyball game 45 minutes from my house.. over 280K miles
Got a 2013 lacrosse 3.6 in the shop today. Gotta do timing chains, did chains on the same engine on an Acadia few months back. These engines blow (I’m a toyota technician)
I've had two of the wheel sensors go bad.from potholes.first time they covered it.second said they made a mistake and weren't supposed to cover.600 bucks to fix
I have a 2015 LaCrosse. 13000 miles. (Just bought it).. twice now, it just shuts off and everything goes dead. The second time, I was in an intersection. Was told the key fob battery might be dead. Touched the fob to the push start button and started right up. Got a new battery, couple days later went to drive the car and the thing is totally dead. No dash lights no nothing when I open The door. IM LOSING MY MIND W THIS CAR!
Definitely not anything, anywhere near a mechanic… but my sensor that the key fob connects to is in the center console. Dealing with a different issue personally, but best of luck with yours!❤
@@Alliegator0047 thanks for the reply! I ended up replacing the car battery.. hopefully this will resolve the mystery "randomn shut down".. one would think w all the computer gadgetry on this car, there would be a warning light that tells you the battery is dead or dying... wouldn't ya think!? I've never had a battery die "while" driving. 🤷♀️
Yeah this vehicle is very computer heavy… I just replaced my battery within the past few months, but I live in a very hot climate. Never really had any issues up until now, where the front low beam light is out. I have no idea how much money that is going to run me and am stressing out. Not sure if I should go to the dealership or a shop. I feel like they’re all going to try and railroad me either way.😔
@@Alliegator0047 I always opt for a "shop" vs a dealership unless its a recall item. Best place I've found to find one is a social media group called "next door".. and then put a shout out for referrels.. good luck!
I have an 2011 Buick Lacrosse CXS, I got my car optioned out and the only things I done to it was replace the water pump, and get the a/c recharged. The only thing I don't like is that I have to replace the key fob battery every week. Other than that I love my car
I love my buick lacrosse I have a 2014 model what I dislike is things like having to change out the whole tail light just to replace break light.... who's idea was this 🤔
And yes there are some electrical issues I have a 2015 Buick LaCrosse leather doing work on some of the electrical issues could be the heat seat warmers can be turning on automatically radio cutting in and out and headlights working whenever they want with a 2015 you shouldn't be having problems lol
I have a 2011 buick lacrosse cxl 2.4L, bought it used with 70,000 miles on it, all was fine and dandy till i hit 80k something miles when the car would just turn off, couldnt find what was wrong, took it to the mech, said that there was a code for the vvt solenoid but then he check them, said they where ok, and could not find anything wrong. So i changed the vvt sol myself and problem got fixed. Also started to see that the dash said a problem with the power steering and problem is that this car power steering is part of the trans, so you need to give the trans its maintnance, got fixed. electrical issues, i believe it has charging issues because everytime i have the headlights ON and i flip a switch inside the car the headlights dim, but it really isnt that big a deal because everything works. I changed the timing chain and waterpump when it went over 100,000miles just cus, and the car felt amazing after that.
I am at 135k miles. 2011 CXL V6. Changed the waterpump, spark plugs , battery, and next I am going to fix the alternator. Imma run this car into the ground.
Wow. I got robbed by VW. When I owned one and it started showing carbon issue I took it in immediately and they went directly to walnut blasting for $1k. I've heard too steer clear of all modern GM V6s, especially the 3.6l.
What would be great is a ballpark estimate of how much the repairs would be, especially the timing chain. I know that there is a difference in the cost of getting it done at the dealer vs an independent garage/mechanic but the reason isn't always the labor rate but that the dealer will replace ALL the parts that can/should be done while replacing the timing belt/chain; like the water pump for example. I am looking to buy a used vehicle but clearly, while some are fantastic vehicles the potential problems outweigh all other considerations.
As you mentioned the mechanic/customer service should discuss what additional parts that shop thinks should be included in a timing chain replacement. This service would vary by hundreds of dollars from shop to shop, maybe more than $1000 depending on what part of the country. Simply no way the cost could be estimated in a YT video.
2010 CXS here. 2x Coolant temp sensors causing overheating issues and other problems including bad batteries and killing the PCM during Covid which took 3 months to replace. Also a bum starter. That's a lot for car with only 123,000 miles.
Does the dirty throttle body or bad sensor have a noticeable sound or driveability. After engine startup I have a noticeable "tap, tap..." sound. Also very slight sluggishness after pulling off at the green light after stopping in traffic. Thank you.
I have the 2010 Lacrosse and had it lose power the other night, didn’t shut off, just wouldn’t go when I pushed on the gas, shut it down several time, and it then proceeded as if nothing ever happened.... got home and it did it again as I was backing into the garage.. shut it off, waited and it moved?. What could this be from?.?
My local Chevy dealer has a 2013 Lacrosse with 72,067 miles on it. When I test drove it, and accelerated to 70 mph to merge onto the interstate, the check engine icon came on for about a minute. Should I run away from this car?
Most likely because of the design of the vehicle and the engineers had to make it fit. Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
I have an 2011 i dont crank sometimes but after it sits if fires up and all my dash lights came on at one time i was told it is the fuel pump and fuel going back in the system thats why the indication lights are on but im not sure
I got a 2014 Buick LaCrosse was getting code P0114 fixed that by changing out camshaft position actuator bank A exhaust..Now I’m getting a P0411 code 🤦♂️
My wife bought a 2010 3.6 new. Within two months the first problem started... You would get in the car and the battery would be dead. It would jump off, but you would never know when it was going to happen. This went on for 10 years... GM would do nothing. Then in July 2020, the ECM went out. I went to move the care in the driveway, but it would not start. It was December before the dealer could get an ecm and install it. Since it was sitting up, we had to replace the battery. Since paying over $1000 to replace the ecm, we have not had a starting problem. Next problem, the radio loses its time and the station it was tuned to after the car sits for a couple of hours. No fix for this yet. Now we have a tire air pressure sensor warning. I replaced the sensor, but no luck. We do not trust this car to go on a trip and it only has 49,000 miles.
@@peterichmond4649 thank you. Have a ou ever heard of putting pure acetone in your gas to help it burn cleaner? There was a channel I used to watch and the guy was a former rocket scientist, and he said he would put maybe 12 oz of pure acetone in his tank before he filled it. He made a pretty strong case for it but I've never had the guts to try it
I can get a 2011 with 49,000 miles for $9200; excellent condition. Had a Regal in the past; nothing but issues. Should I pull the trigger on this thing?
I have a 2014 Lacrosse with the 3.6L V6. It's been a great car so far. Had to do a complete valve clean by pulling the intake off... that was a whole day job but wasn't that bad. I didn't use walnut shells... I rotated the engine so valves were closed, then soaked in gas/starting fluid to dissolve deposits. On bad areas I gently used a brass brush. Sucked it out with turkey baster, blew it dry with rag/compressed air, and let evaporate before rotating the engine to the next 2 cylinders to prevent hydrolock. I thought it much safer and cleaner than using walnut shells. For the record catch cans on Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI engines) is a great idea to prevent carbon buildup on valves- just have to remember to drain it out every once in a while. You also have to pull the intake to change the back three spark plugs. Takes a 15 minute job and turns it into a 2 hour job. You will want to avoid the 4 cylinder models. They put them in the Regal, Lacrosse, Impala, and a whole slew of other GM products and they were garbage. From what I've heard they had many problems; the worst of which being holes in pistons due to them being aluminum and high compression. They don't seem to have that problem on the V6's.
Mother-in-law has 2016 w/ 30k on it and apparent transmission failure. Anyone know of trans issues with this model? I’m getting involved because she had it towed to GM dealer and i trust them only a little more than the government. Any sage advice is appreciated.
I am curious if you repaired or replaced that transmission. I just bought a 2016 with 110,000 miles on it and the transmission was replaced at 100k. The car looks and drives like a dream but I am curious if I should be on alert for transmission failure even though it is brand new?
ECM is mounted in the wrong spot on the v6 3.6 next to the engine under the hood. Bad idea. ECM get way to hot and overheats the computer and car shuts off. You have to wait to it cools to restart the car. Simple fix. Relocate the ECM in between the grill and radiator and mount it. The ECM will then stay cool to the touch and car will not cut off believe me the harness will reach. That's the most common problem with the 2012's and other Buick lacrosse's thank me later
Thanks🤗 Ran into this problem last night. I just pulled off immediately (was driving just over an hour non-stop) longest I've driven nonstop with this car. Right before light came on (engine power reduced) , was driving 60-62 mph. Immediately pulled off, like 10secs. And immediately turned off engine. Prayed #1. Went online to find any info on this prob. And yours made the most sense and matched my prob. Waited about 45 mins, then full inspection (no leaks). Engine started right up & Goooooooood!😁 I think Now I will ONLY drive this car 30 minutes (max) non -stop. In the future, I will try what you suggest relocating the ECM. Thanks, alot Praise Yahweh! For you to write this comment! God Bless you!
I had a '12 Impala with 3.6 and had to replace 2 vvt sensors but after that it was fine traded it in at 132000 as the infamous GM crap multi reading came across dash..service brake system,service Trac control..reduced engine power. My 2011 Malibu had same problem as it began to run very bad but Impala never had running issues. It did hesitate every so often though on acceleration. The diagnostic system on GM's are horrible. Won't let you know when your battery is bad. My Impala was running on a 6 yr old battery and it started fine the cranking amps went bad (tested bad)causing transmission problems. I replaced battery and all was good drove car car another 33,000 miles no issues with trans.I noticed water pumps are an issue on these cars seen Carfax on one that had pump replaced twice in 30,000 miles.

Sadly, I had to retire my dad's 2011 Lacrosse which I inherited 4 years ago when he passed away. My dad had no problems with the car. He did replace the tires and battery. It was downhill for me. The computer system went out without warning 2 years ago and was replaced. Last week same problem, dead computer. The mechanic also found a leak in the oil tank. I sent the car to the junk man with a tear in my eye. It was a beautiful car, 75,000 miles.
Most times its a bad Battery with ECM problems, unfortunately many auto shops wont fix this first, an ECM is expensive a Battery is cheap.
@@wlbrobinson The car died twice without warning while I was on the road. To replace the computer a second time made no sense after just two years, prohibitively expensive. I do miss the car.
My '02 Regal recently stalled out and left me stranded. The lights on the instrument clustered flashed on and off, and the engine failed to crank. After sitting for a couple of days of sitting, the engine turned over. The tow truck driver mentioned that a faulty alternator can cause unusual electrical symptoms.
Truly appreciate this video. I have a 2010 lacrosse 3.0 it runs pretty solid but I definitely had ABS stability track issues. It's crazy I hear many people talk about this issue and a lot of people don't know that if the speed sensor is bold you have to change the hub because they're connected
Is the ABS really a problem. What exactly does it do and how is it a big problem. Is it a danger to be driving
Is that stabilitrack issue from the speed sensor?
@@Jsmitt716 not sure but I know that the hub and the speed sensor are connected so if one goes you got to change it.
Hi All,
I do appreciate your honesty as well.
Not many will walk you through this.
As a woman that knows nothing about cars always feel that I’m being taken advantage of. I have 2012 Buick lacrosse leather for almost 10 months luckily low miles but it was time for a inspection. Found out it needed tires all around and some other stuff I had no clue what it was and it cost me whopping $3000. Smh
Haven’t even had car for year yet ughhhh
Anyways, I always hear a light noise when driving any idea what that is?
What does the noise sound like?
i like this guy, he speaks the truth right on point
Tanks.god.my Buick la crosse.whit 17200 miles runs.exelent
Mine too...i have a 2013. Got her brand new and love her
I own a 2010, & still love driving it. These are great cars, but pre-maintenance is key. All cars will need repairs sooner or later but it matters how you maintain these vehicles.
2012 lacrosse with 72k i got it at 50k only had 1 issue Ac compressor went out. Had a aftermarket warranty company fix it no outta pocket for me. Other than that great car i did alot of proactive maintenance. Trans flush, coolant flush, evap cleaning, throttle body cleaning, new spark plugs, new battery, new water pump, regular oil change of course and new tires/rear shocks i work at a dealership so i get everything discounted and techs work on my car for dirt cheap. Overall the lacrosse is a good car but you gotta fork over the money when its due and sometimes its good to just be proactive and do routine maintenance. Aka more than just oil changes it cost to maintain a reliable vehicle always remember that
Not bad at all. Only issue I have with mine is the infotainment system, that it sometimes goes mental when playing mp3s from a flash-thingy. Often, it'll "forget" where it was and play one saaaaaaaaaaaame song (to the point where you get sick of it) vs the one that was last playing. That, and forever "indexing..." when restarted.
When adding new songs, be sure to change the volume name so it'll reindex the whole thing as a new "disc". Otherwise, you may run into an album that plays duplicates, ie, song 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, etc., instead of 1, 2, 3, etc.
Thanks for being honest about the timing chain. I had my share of Audi timing belts going bad , having a chain i thought would last longer. I have a 2011 Buick Regal in the driveway , beautiful looking car with a new transmission but the motor has a timing problem. I might just junk it.
How much is it to repair the timing chain?
2011 Buick lacross CXL. 124,777 miles on it. More reliable then my bmw. I changed the waterpump, battery , spark plugs, breaks and rotors. This car is a tank if you take care of it. I am changing the alternator with my stimulus check. My only issue is that damn Onstar module. That shit never works.
5 month update. 135,000+ miles. Still running smooth.
@@JcLazy1 thanks for the update
3 month update. Happy New Year's. Over 140,000+ miles changed catalytic converter, purge valve. GMC had a recall and I did the recall fix.
@@JcLazy1 bought mine in May of 2020 @109000km and it is a solid vehicle. I run delivery and it gets maintained daily. Oil change every month & 1/2 because of the amount I drive. It is a dream vehicle and could not have asked for a better deal. ✌🇨🇦👍
What engine do you have ? How difficult are the plugs to change and what special extensions or u-joints did you use ?
I’m looking into getting a Buick lacrosse or a Buick encore, I love the Buick cars and the interior. Idk what year I’ll end up with just yet though
Just bought a 2011 Lacrosse CXL 150k. Same day I transferred the title it lit up like a Christmas tree with misfires and purge valve related issues. Changed plugs and purge valve so we’ll see how things go the next few days.
I’ve had 3 Buicks and they were all great cars which is why I bought another
Were you able to dispose of the Christmas tree?
yes
Thanks. My neighbor owns one and I care for it. Good stuff. His door latch is bad! 😂
I have the 2015 and haven't had no problems. The only thing I dont like about the car is it has alot of blind spots
I have one too and noticed the same thing.
Timing chain issue was fixed in the '12 n up models. The LFX engine
like always right on time guys & thanx for the videos guys appreciate very much men 💯
Are they worth buying rn today cause I'm looking at one ??
Had the water pump go on mine really early, always wheel bearings going bad. AC doesn't work. Slips a bit from 1st to second gear. It still runs though...
I wish you were located closer, I would never take my car anywhere else but your shop
I just purchased a 2014 with 56 K miles and hopefully we made the right choice for a used car.
Thank you was going to look at one for my son going too check out some things else my trailblazer have lots of problems like this
11 regal, had to replace wheel speed sensors, throttle body and a/c compressor. Changed vvt sensors, o2 sensors
Everything problem u said I literally have it’s insane

Great video. The problems I've had with my 2013 buick lacrosse, purchased in 2016 with 42K miles were (and this in order):
1. Water in trunk (it was either the sunroof or tail lights that had a bad seal) covered under warranty thankfully, dealership said around $350-$500, between there i cant remember
2. Hub bearings in the front (I got the abs/stability system error but noticed it driving weird) also covered under warranty, don't recall the price
2. Alternator went bad, $500 fix plus the battery, not covered under warranty
3. Water pump went bad, covered under warranty, $500 to fix if i had to pay out of pocket
4. Catalytic converter went bad, $630 fix out of pocket
5. Mass flow index senor went bad, this set off a check engine light, $200 fix out of pocket
6. Rear view mirror fell off, had to be re-bond by a glass company, $20
7. Right rear shock broken, $500 fix
7. Water in foot well of passenger and rear right passenger, $ to be determined. 2 weeks later and $700 later, it was the rear windshield seal and rear passenger door firewall
I have 120K miles on it now. Idk if I'd get it again honestly, maybe it was made on a Monday. I love the way it drives and looks and I'm very thankful the engine and transmission are all great. I hope to get another 120K miles out of it
Why does it matter the day it was made?
@@kingdrift1136 because the factory workers are hung over and don't wanna be there working on Mondays lol.
Mine is doing okay...Heater stopped working.
Reservoir tank down 3 + quarts.
No sign of leak yet. IDK
@@philiphorner31 I'm currently having issue with the heat not switching to the windshield. Believe it's the mode door actuator

Only major problem I've had on my 2011 Buick LaCrosse CXL is cold starts occasionally, bought it from the dealership in December of 2010 an it has 162k miles but I've also heard from my buddy that works at the Buick dealership the cream color models from 2011 rarely showed up to the shop for major problems
A/c problems like hell
That my issue now
Same here
Same. And my frion is fine, it's the ac clutch I think
Same
Me too
Oh, the drain hoses from the sunroof. Completely plugged. Bracket that holds the hose on the sunroof side has a bar across it so I can't get a 1/8" snake down it, at best I could only poke a brake/gear cable from a bicycle, which "bottoms out" at a bend somewhere just before it exits. No idea where's the outlet near the wheels, either, as there are no obvious holes, else I'd snake the hoses from down there, upward. Roof area floods and ruined the sunroof switch after leaking so much, even stained the upper area of the A-pillar.
I love my Buick ❤
I love my 2011 lacrosse. But so far I have the wheel speed sensor issue, a/c clutch is bad, I think my timing chain need to be replaced but no codes yet. And a dummy light that says to service stabilitrack and also service brake assist
Having the same lights come on, brake assist and service.stabilitrack. was this an easy fix?
@@scottgreig1725 lol I'm still riding with it... I've been out of work and had back surgery so money is so tight I had to just let it go for a while. From the research I've done it's a speed sensor on one of the hubs that isn't too hard to replace
06 Lexus es330. 1 owner, never has an AC issue lol.
Good looking on the info
Those problems don't seem to bad.

2010 Buick lacrosse no problems been a great car
Ive had to replace my injectors, wheel bearing on right passenger side, entire A/C system, spark plugs twice, the catalytic converter broke and had to be welded back on, a broken belt that destroyed my radiator, shocks on rear, the radiator fluid tank cracked after two years, and now it is leaking radiator fluid again, a/c compressor went out, front shocks need replaced and sway bar ..... this car is the worst Ive had and I bought it brand new in 2011 oh and not to mention it got towed home after it broke down last night while I was at my daughters volleyball game 45 minutes from my house.. over 280K miles
Got a 2013 lacrosse 3.6 in the shop today. Gotta do timing chains, did chains on the same engine on an Acadia few months back. These engines blow (I’m a toyota technician)
Is there a way to change the ambient lighting color ? On a 2013
I've had two of the wheel sensors go bad.from potholes.first time they covered it.second said they made a mistake and weren't supposed to cover.600 bucks to fix
I have a 2015 LaCrosse. 13000 miles. (Just bought it).. twice now, it just shuts off and everything goes dead. The second time, I was in an intersection. Was told the key fob battery might be dead. Touched the fob to the push start button and started right up. Got a new battery, couple days later went to drive the car and the thing is totally dead. No dash lights no nothing when I open The door. IM LOSING MY MIND W THIS CAR!
Definitely not anything, anywhere near a mechanic… but my sensor that the key fob connects to is in the center console. Dealing with a different issue personally, but best of luck with yours!❤
@@Alliegator0047 thanks for the reply! I ended up replacing the car battery.. hopefully this will resolve the mystery "randomn shut down".. one would think w all the computer gadgetry on this car, there would be a warning light that tells you the battery is dead or dying... wouldn't ya think!? I've never had a battery die "while" driving. 🤷♀️
Yeah this vehicle is very computer heavy… I just replaced my battery within the past few months, but I live in a very hot climate. Never really had any issues up until now, where the front low beam light is out. I have no idea how much money that is going to run me and am stressing out. Not sure if I should go to the dealership or a shop. I feel like they’re all going to try and railroad me either way.😔
@@Alliegator0047 I always opt for a "shop" vs a dealership unless its a recall item. Best place I've found to find one is a social media group called "next door".. and then put a shout out for referrels.. good luck!
Battery/alternator
I have an 2011 Buick Lacrosse CXS, I got my car optioned out and the only things I done to it was replace the water pump, and get the a/c recharged. The only thing I don't like is that I have to replace the key fob battery every week. Other than that I love my car
I have the same car, and knock on wood, no major problems with it yet. It has 109K miles on it and I love this car!
Y'all really have no idea. 🤣 I got one as well.
I have the same car, had to replace the water pump this summer
Awesome! Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
Don't buy your batteries on Amazon or Ebay, duh.
I got my 2011 Buick LaCrosse CXS February 22 2022
how is going so far????
I love my buick lacrosse I have a 2014 model what I dislike is things like having to change out the whole tail light just to replace break light.... who's idea was this 🤔
And yes there are some electrical issues I have a 2015 Buick LaCrosse leather doing work on some of the electrical issues could be the heat seat warmers can be turning on automatically radio cutting in and out and headlights working whenever they want with a 2015 you shouldn't be having problems lol
In I was thinking about getting an 2011 -2012 !! Got me thinking twice about this
That's what I'm dealing with on my 2015. Radio in and out, and turn signal not clicking when the radio is out
I have a 2011 buick lacrosse cxl 2.4L, bought it used with 70,000 miles on it, all was fine and dandy till i hit 80k something miles when the car would just turn off, couldnt find what was wrong, took it to the mech, said that there was a code for the vvt solenoid but then he check them, said they where ok, and could not find anything wrong. So i changed the vvt sol myself and problem got fixed. Also started to see that the dash said a problem with the power steering and problem is that this car power steering is part of the trans, so you need to give the trans its maintnance, got fixed. electrical issues, i believe it has charging issues because everytime i have the headlights ON and i flip a switch inside the car the headlights dim, but it really isnt that big a deal because everything works. I changed the timing chain and waterpump when it went over 100,000miles just cus, and the car felt amazing after that.
I am at 135k miles. 2011 CXL V6. Changed the waterpump, spark plugs , battery, and next I am going to fix the alternator. Imma run this car into the ground.
Wow. I got robbed by VW. When I owned one and it started showing carbon issue I took it in immediately and they went directly to walnut blasting for $1k. I've heard too steer clear of all modern GM V6s, especially the 3.6l.
They are garbage designed to shorten the life of the engine! That's why I stick with my Lexus/Toyota from 2000s.
Thanks. I am looking to get a used set of wheels that have ZERO "Top 5 Problems." Where do I start to look?
What would be great is a ballpark estimate of how much the repairs would be, especially the timing chain. I know that there is a difference in the cost of getting it done at the dealer vs an independent garage/mechanic but the reason isn't always the labor rate but that the dealer will replace ALL the parts that can/should be done while replacing the timing belt/chain; like the water pump for example. I am looking to buy a used vehicle but clearly, while some are fantastic vehicles the potential problems outweigh all other considerations.
As you mentioned the mechanic/customer service should discuss what additional parts that shop thinks should be included in a timing chain replacement. This service would vary by hundreds of dollars from shop to shop, maybe more than $1000 depending on what part of the country. Simply no way the cost could be estimated in a YT video.
Thats new technology for ya
2010 CXS here. 2x Coolant temp sensors causing overheating issues and other problems including bad batteries and killing the PCM during Covid which took 3 months to replace. Also a bum starter. That's a lot for car with only 123,000 miles.
Does the dirty throttle body or bad sensor have a noticeable sound or driveability.
After engine startup I have a noticeable "tap, tap..." sound. Also very slight sluggishness after pulling off at the green light after stopping in traffic.
Thank you.
I have the 2010 Lacrosse and had it lose power the other night, didn’t shut off, just wouldn’t go when I pushed on the gas, shut it down several time, and it then proceeded as if nothing ever happened.... got home and it did it again as I was backing into the garage.. shut it off, waited and it moved?. What could this be from?.?
Mine did it yesterday after I left the car sitting still running for 10 mins when does yours do it
ECM overheated, its next to the engine. Look into relocating it towards the front/radiator area.
I own a 2012 Buick LaCrosse touring and never had a problem yet.60k miles

@@timyarbrough8548 not true.
My local Chevy dealer has a 2013 Lacrosse with 72,067 miles on it. When I test drove it, and accelerated to 70 mph to merge onto the interstate, the check engine icon came on for about a minute. Should I run away from this car?
Can shift solenoid be bad and not throw a code? My first gear shifts fast when a little warmed up? No leaks or anything though.

Is the hybrid version of this car good to buy?
question I replaced ...the fan relays checked coolant temp sensor... everything checks goo the fan will turn off never. what's next.
I bought a 2014 lacrosse the timing chain broke 2 weeks later. I'm getting it fixed then I'm selling it.
I got a 2014 Buick LaCrosse was getting code P0114 fixed that by changing out camshaft position actuator bank A exhaust..Now I’m getting a P0411 code 🤦♂️
My wife bought a 2010 3.6 new. Within two months the first problem started... You would get in the car and the battery would be dead. It would jump off, but you would never know when it was going to happen. This went on for 10 years... GM would do nothing. Then in July 2020, the ECM went out. I went to move the care in the driveway, but it would not start. It was December before the dealer could get an ecm and install it. Since it was sitting up, we had to replace the battery. Since paying over $1000 to replace the ecm, we have not had a starting problem. Next problem, the radio loses its time and the station it was tuned to after the car sits for a couple of hours. No fix for this yet. Now we have a tire air pressure sensor warning. I replaced the sensor, but no luck.
We do not trust this car to go on a trip and it only has 49,000 miles.
What about the parking brake issue
I have a 2016 Lacrosse lights come but wont crank any suggestions or had any problems like this

@@peterichmond4649 thank you. Have a ou ever heard of putting pure acetone in your gas to help it burn cleaner?

Do you have a similar video for the First Generation LaCrosse?
I can get a 2011 with 49,000 miles for $9200; excellent condition. Had a Regal in the past; nothing but issues. Should I pull the trigger on this thing?
I have a 2014 Lacrosse with the 3.6L V6. It's been a great car so far. Had to do a complete valve clean by pulling the intake off... that was a whole day job but wasn't that bad. I didn't use walnut shells... I rotated the engine so valves were closed, then soaked in gas/starting fluid to dissolve deposits. On bad areas I gently used a brass brush. Sucked it out with turkey baster, blew it dry with rag/compressed air, and let evaporate before rotating the engine to the next 2 cylinders to prevent hydrolock. I thought it much safer and cleaner than using walnut shells. For the record catch cans on Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI engines) is a great idea to prevent carbon buildup on valves- just have to remember to drain it out every once in a while.
You also have to pull the intake to change the back three spark plugs. Takes a 15 minute job and turns it into a 2 hour job.
You will want to avoid the 4 cylinder models. They put them in the Regal, Lacrosse, Impala, and a whole slew of other GM products and they were garbage. From what I've heard they had many problems; the worst of which being holes in pistons due to them being aluminum and high compression. They don't seem to have that problem on the V6's.
That’s a good ass deal.
Mother-in-law has 2016 w/ 30k on it and apparent transmission failure. Anyone know of trans issues with this model? I’m getting involved because she had it towed to GM dealer and i trust them only a little more than the government. Any sage advice is appreciated.
I am curious if you repaired or replaced that transmission. I just bought a 2016 with 110,000 miles on it and the transmission was replaced at 100k. The car looks and drives like a dream but I am curious if I should be on alert for transmission failure even though it is brand new?
ECM is mounted in the wrong spot on the v6 3.6 next to the engine under the hood. Bad idea. ECM get way to hot and overheats the computer and car shuts off. You have to wait to it cools to restart the car. Simple fix. Relocate the ECM in between the grill and radiator and mount it. The ECM will then stay cool to the touch and car will not cut off believe me the harness will reach. That's the most common problem with the 2012's and other Buick lacrosse's thank me later
Nice! We haven't see that issue yet. Thanks for the input and for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
Thanks🤗 Ran into this problem last night. I just pulled off immediately (was driving just over an hour non-stop) longest I've driven nonstop with this car. Right before light came on (engine power reduced) , was driving 60-62 mph. Immediately pulled off, like 10secs. And immediately turned off engine. Prayed #1. Went online to find any info on this prob. And yours made the most sense and matched my prob. Waited about 45 mins, then full inspection (no leaks). Engine started right up & Goooooooood!😁 I think Now I will ONLY drive this car 30 minutes (max) non -stop. In the future, I will try what you suggest relocating the ECM. Thanks, alot Praise Yahweh!
