Take out debris and install new pump. Works perfect it looks worse than it actually is. Same thing happened to my 2017 impala the pieces in there were hard to get because some are aluminum and the other were metal. A small magnet for metal pieces and eyelash tweezers for aluminum pieces 5 minute job turned to 30 but its ok 👍 been driving good and brakes went back to normal and no oil leak
Just removed my vacuum pump from my 2017 Malibu The pump looked to be in the same with the damage as the car in the video but I was able to put a new pump on and been driving for a couple days now
Bad idea my man. You need to clean out the debris left by vacuum pump in the camshaft area. That debris will eventually get into the oiling system and mess up your car in ways that you won't like. And its probably too late to even try getting the debris now cause you have been driving for a few days now.
Junk engine , I'm working on a cruze that ended up with bent valves, the cam seized enough to jump chains thus the bent valves and low compression. This all happened at high speed.
In my opinion, whether you replace the rubber seal or the paper-thin gasket of the vacuum pump, replace the vacuum pump itself too. This is a part that should never be reused knowing how bad it is. I don't know if that seal would be somewhat easy to remove off of the valve cover while in the engine. When I removed it, I had the valve cover already out of the engine, and it my case it was already ripped because the pump had blown itself up. So when I was removing it using a seal puller, it was ripping itself apart. I think that if it was in the engine, it would be some trouble to get it out.
@@a___a.94 Remove the vacuum pump and inspect the seal. Check if it is sideways, maybe its not seated all the way in, or it got torn while putting the pump back in. Make sure it is seated on the correct side too. Either way, you'll need a new seal, and new gasket, never reuse them.
Now you imagine what your can chef look like and your valve This is a really bad design I bought two of these damn cars and they destroy my camshaft inspect the inside of your motor before you put the new parts on
The thing is that not everyone can pay for an engine rebuild, most people would settle for a quick solution so they can keep going. So knowing that this could happen very early in its life, it is a disposable engine, built for short life span. When I saw that the vacuum pump had blown up, I knew this engine needed a rebuild, but it would cost too much to the customer, so I suggested to them to sell the car once I got it back running. That way someone else can deal with the issue.

No need to replace the camshaft remove the valve cover, remove the debris.
That's what I'm hoping to be like. When I get the new Vacuum Pump, I'll make an install and test drive video.
That’s some rebuilt just like my car and I’m still paying for
How can you tell it’s been rebuilt

Man that sucks.
Bro is it difficult to replace only that seal?

I did replace it but then it started leaking ( a lot of oil is coming out )

Get rid of those cars quickly, get a Toyota or Honda.
Do not put that piece on your car you need to rebuild
