Completing the rebuild of the last failed rebuild on a 2016 GMC Terrain Denali

- Totaled, hacked, totaled, and repaired... This Terrain has some history. It is time to finish it up. All the parts we were waiting for have arrived... or so I thought. Just typical rebuild problems but it will all get sorted out this time. Since there is some mechanical work to do there will be many specialized tools used in this video. I also share the little known secret to keeping these 2.4 Terrains from experiencing many of the know engine issues.

For replacement vin, tire pressure, and other labels I use www.ecsvin.com/

This man’s sarcasm is a thing of beauty....almost an art👌
That is one thing I will never run out of! lol
Almost an art? His sarcasm is beyond any mere art.
even the british dry humor couldn't beat him!
The "adjustable metric hammer" got me today.
Bordering on British standard ...
I can't wait for Fridays. It's never boring, despite his claim. Thanks Scott.
I will keep trying! I will bore you one day! 😂 Thanks for the support!
@@vehcor only people who are giving this video a thumbs down are the clowns who “rebuilt” it the first time. Great work on this, always enjoy “somebody’s been here before”
Dude has a amazing work ethic.
@@vehcor- If you really want to bore the masses, just return to your roots. As a fellow Pontiac fanatic, it's time to bring on another Grand Am, or what the heck, another Grand Prix, or G8. I would love to see a visit to the Grand Am emporium for old times sake!👍
Hello from Phoenix Arizona!🔥
I am mr Spotty new manager. We are filing a grievance for forcing him to work upside down with no protection, airbags safety lines or even hearing protection.
Forcing him!!! I was trying to get him to act normal! We’ll see you in court! 😂
You do know air bags are old ladies in a plane ✈️ right ?
An added bit of humor would be having Mr. Spotty go through some Mr. Bill experiences.
You can do this !!
Your workmanship is incredible.
Thank you!
I can not help but to notice how the sound of the panels snapping together is therapeutic.
Replaying those portions after editing makes the hassle of those edits worth it. lol
It makes me think that these things were made to be put together, not taken apart. It's way less therapeutic to disassemble them while avoiding breaking them.
Agreed! The repetitive sounds are like music of a sorts. Scott does a great job and so does Robert Dunn on his Aging Wheels channel with his musical drilling, grinding and welding!
The sound of plastic tabs snapping off during disassembly is a little less relaxing...
Love "Boring Build Fridays". I get tired of "You won't believe what we are rebuilding today!"
You won’t believe how boring this build is! 😂
LOL, your oil change rant was EPIC.
There will still be people blaming their cars for their neglect!
Yep, I agreed with it. GM says to trust their OCI lights, but every one I had the carbon sensor goes bad and sometimes it will tell you that you need to give it an oil change 500 miles into the previous one (and, yes, I do reset them properly), and sometimes it won't tell you that you need it at all. So I just stuck to my regular, changing the oil at around the 5,000 mile mark and called it good. Part of the reason why I like how Subaru's handle maintenance. You just program how far out you want the intervals to be and it keeps track of the mileage and/or months.
I just realized what Mr. Spotty's problem is. He just doesn't have the "stick-to-itiveness" required for success at a high level.
I think all the fame just went to his head. 😂
Love your sarcasm oil change
I always have plenty of sarcasm to go around!
@@vehcor Yeah, but you didn't make sense. It is not illogical to stick to manufacturer specifications for oil and oil change intervals, unless it turns out that they are wrong. Synthetic oils can last over 10,000 miles.
I love it when you call it a bumper when if you so much as lean on it in the cold it breaks. I'm old enough to remember when bumpers were heavy, chrome and didn't break if you looked at them.
I'm that old too and I am glad those are gone. These are so much easier to handle. lol
I love watching this man he is not afraid to draw tears of the easily offended. Gotta love it.
Scott and his famous sarcastic humor is a thing of beauty.
I would buy a car that you repaired any day. Meticulous work, fun to watch. Good memories of when my daughters were new drivers.
This gentleman repairs the vehicles into better quality than manufacturers selling them as new.
The JD Power award for fixing shitty OEM build quality goes to this guy.
After all that would be the only JD Power award that's actually of any value.
I was very impressed with that tire-wheel mounting technique!
It takes a little practice but saves a lot of time when you learn it! 😂
Amen to the oil changes brother! I change mine every 5000kms or 6 months whether it needs it or not.
They people that don't change their oil are the same ones blaming the car for blowing up. lol
Same here. And I only use full synthetic, never blended. Engine seems to a very happy camper.
The car looks amazing. I think what you do to bring these vehicles back to life and giving someone an affordable vehicle that will last someone a good long time because you go through the extra effort to rustproof them and make them better than they were originally is amazing.
Congrats on the sponsorship!
Thanks, great people to work with!
Our entire lives are held together with brittle plastic tabs. 😊
Always amazed at the professional approach of properly repairing a vehicle like this. See you in the next installment.
Are those Oakley E Wire sunglasses?? Man....1998 like it was yesterday. I wasn’t ready for the nostalgia.
The car is better now then when it came from the factory. Lot of work, great job.
Thanks!
''you kinda know what happens in accidents, you dont know what happens with idiots'' ....fixed it for you ;)
I was trying to be nice but, yeah, you nailed it!
I'll tell you what I hate about your videos, you make this look so easy. It takes me about your left of video just to find my bumper installation tool.
But seriously, great videos.
This running monologue you give us, it's not scripted, that's just you, there is no way you have enough time to write that much tongue in cheek material . Love listening to it.
This has been very educational, as it has provided us with a good snapshot as to just how dishonest some of these so-called Mechanics/Body shop Technicians can be. I for one learned valuable insight, thanks.
I would be happy to drive that vehicle. Good job and safe too.
Thanks, these are quite comfortable on road trips!
Friday!!! Mr. Spotty gets back into the automobile rebuilds after narrowly escaping death in the trailer rebuild. And he goes inverted at 03:58! Then you toss him at the end! Brutal! Great work Scott! Oh, Oh, Oh... That Terrain Template is SAWEEEEEET!!!!
And then suffers a big tumble through the window! 😂
Didn't get to see this "Boring Build Friday" until Sunday because I was too busy loosing money in Vegas until early this morning.
The builds are there for whenever you have time! I hope you enjoyed your weekend but the house always wins.
Glad to see it fixed properly and back on the road
I've watched alot of your builds and the many parts...your work never ceases to amaze me. I cant help but wonder if some of the folks who buy them see the videos and see just what was screwed up and how you fixed it. Your humor is priceless..dont ever change as this world so needs a ton of humor in huge daily doses. That oil that came out of it looked black as coal...and that cabin filter....YUCK!! Somebody had pets that have been there before...
Thanks for the great work on the cars and the effort you put into the editing Scott...it show up beautifully every time:-)
I can’t believe that’s the same SUV. Awesome rebuild 👍
Nice job, Scott. The finished product looks beautiful. Someone will definitely be a proud owner of the Terrain.
I hope so!
It’s still a Terrain - but at least it’s the best rebuilt one you can get!
That's crazy the bumper installation tool looks just like the bumper assembly tool. :)
Scott's Terrain Emporium, didn't that guy used to have a place called Scott's Grand Am Emporium?
It's right next door. The owner is a sarcastic jerk though. lol
That was pretty impressive how you mounted that tire fast enough to trap the air to auto inflate. That right there shows the true professional in you. Only a few can do that!
It’s all in the wrist! 😂
Mr Spotty‼️ Beam Scotty up, Spotty❗️ (she canna take anymore, Cap’n) if’n I was in the market for another vehicle, I would DEFINITELY buy one from this man! He does not rebuild vehicles, he REMANUFACTURES them‼️ In fact, I would say he does a better job than the factory‼️‼️ Keep up the good work, Scott. 👍👍👍
Scott your sarcasm is better than watchweswork and that takes some beating ,you two are priceless
🇬🇧👍😀 Dave
The way everything snaps together is like building a snap together model car...wonder where they got their idea. Lol.
Snap together models are the employees training programs for all assembly line workers now! 😂
I normally avoid salvage builds like the plague. With that being said, after seeing the quality of your work, I'd buy one from you in a hot minute.
Bubble wrap…you’re never too old to pop it! 😂
Excellent video once again Scott.
Nope! Wrapping paper tubes will forever make great weapons as well!
@@vehcor Great idea! I will have to do that with the grandkids.
You and Mr. Spotty make a good team. Just as long as you don't hold him back. Maybe his next career will be the spokes tape for 3M. Then he might hire you as his assistant with much needed training .
That statement about relying on others instead of thinking logical yourself hit the nail straight on the head . And believe you me , those will have a very difficult life .
Scott, you would think by now I would have learned not to drink a beer while watching your videos! You owe me a half roll of paper towels! You didn’t say which tool you used when you installed the spoiler, shame, shame! My brother had one experience with jiffy lube, he had them do a full fluid change on his Ford pickup, yes I know, I hate to admit that I’m related, two strikes, a Ford and jiffy lube. They replaced all the fluids except for the rear differential, they left it dry. It cost them thousands of dollars to settle with him after the rear end locked up at 70 mph. So, no more jiffy lube. Btw, the freight liner I drive with a Detroit DD15 has recommended oil change intervals of 50,000 miles. We change at half of that. Another great video. Dan.
We already know that you're going to have it looking like it just left the showroom floor..👍👍
Welcome back mr spotty.
I was rushing and I forgot to put the oil plug back in a Toyota once. Filled it with oil. Went back into the hole i drained the old oil into, Started it... Looked down, Oh shit drain plug. Thing ran for like 2 mins with no oil. No engine noise at all! Amazing. Plug in. Refilled it. Woops! I should try to 2 inch ratchet strap the exhaust pipe straight on the truck Good idea I might try it
Mr. Spotty can be a pain to work with but the dudes always got a smile on his face. Plus he does tricks 🙃
I know jack about cars. But I was laughing so hard at the oil change. Yes, I still have the same car I bough 18 years ago. Oil change for the win! :D
Regular care costs less in the long run!
Get off work on Friday at 5 tired from turnin wrenches all week, watching Boring build Friday by 6!!!! 👍🏻 finished my week right ‼️
Time to get one of those c-8's that have fallen off the hoist, and do a deep dive on them. Yeah, frame and body damage comes with...but you can handle it. Nice work on denali.
As for Mr. Spotty...MAN DOWN!!!
I'm glad the negotiations with Mr Spotty and his new "manager" went well. A boring build Friday wouldn't be the same without him....
Another Vehcor build pulled from the abyss and setting on the showroom floor.
another fine video brought to you by scotts terrain and dirtnali emporium.
Can’t figure out if rebuilding cars is all for fun or for profit.
I suspect the work is for profit. And, the TH-cam videos (and teasing the haters) makes it fun.
Beautiful work. I’d be happy to purchase that car/truck and be confident it would work as designed and manufactured for years.
Is it true Scott that the nuts and bolts companies are going bankrupt? Taken over by snap pins and plastic joiners? Oh Well, Progress? Thanks for the fun. Great job! Rich
It could be. Darn technology putting people out of work! lol
Nah, just a new job opportunity for workers-Job title-SNAPPERS. LOL
I've never heard of changing oil at 20,000 miles. Our cars have recommended oil changes at either 3,000 miles or 5,000 miles.
Now that you've repaired the damage and repaired the previous "repairs" the Terrain is once again fit to be used. Whoever buys it will be very happy with it and all the maintenance is done. All the best from Queensland Australia.
I’m new to your channel. Very impressed with your workmanship but most of all , your humerus sarcasm. Thanks for the entertainment and that was a very thorough repair.
Better than new! I would buy that in a heartbeat. Nice job!
Looking forward to your next build 😀
I sincerely hope you are getting top dollar for your work as the level of attention to detail is fantastic. Top work deserves a shout out. :)
fantastic! really do enjoy Fridays!
As usual, I got my money's worth and enjoyed the trip. Thanks Scott!
Thanks!
Top 10 for sure. The cars repair history, and fixing it right made it special. I still can't believe what they did with the airbags. It's such a pleasure to watch these!
Nice video, waiting another one.
Thank you.
Most of the seat headrest sleeve tabs can be released without pinching your fingers by sliding the right size deep socket over to push the tabs. Usually works for me.
The master has done it again..👍👍👍👍
My grandfather has a 2011 equinox with the 2.4 ecotec sitting at 341000km (212000 ish) miles changes oil every 5000km and have never had a single powertrain issue
Yep, I have customers with even more miles and the same story. It is amazing how the people that neglect their cars blame the cars! 🤦🏼♂️
Change the oil. Excellent advise.
I helped a friend of mine with some DIY body work. Thanks to your videos i was full speed ahead. All confidence. Not to your caliber but big big improvement with no parts. I was really excited to use my bumper installation tool. Shhhh. I used 2 drywall screws but its a 20 year old suzuki jeep and she was thrilled.
Drywall screws are factory in those! 😂
Nice job Scott, as usual! I used My Airbags for the module reset and seatbelt pretensioner on my Mustang rebuild, and they did a great, fast job on them.
I say it again, I would buy any salvage off this man!
Absolutely brilliant, I watch your videos from the 🇬🇧
My sides hurt from laughing so much. The 6000 foot pound of torque on the drain plug just about caused me to wet myself I was laughing so hard. What a great way to start my Saturday morning. Thank you for this and all your other videos. Please don't stop.
Keep doing the boring build Friday videos i learning soo much that i know what to look for when buying a rebuild title car
I see that I can use my bumper installation tool to install the rear spoiler, one less tool to buy. Thanks Scott!
I don’t know what brings me to this channel the most, the expert build and craftsmanship or your witty sarcasm!
Guess we will have to watch a few hundred more videos to find out.
That is a sharp looking Terrain Denali...!
I find you and your content is a wonderful way to start the day while eating breakfast. I have to dry the tears I'm laughing so hard some times. Your work is superb, true craftsmanship and the humor, my gosh best on the web. Keep up the good work!
Your the only rebuilder / whatever who works on a seat with something under it so not screw up the track, cover, etc. Again really nice work on this one.
I would be confident in buying one of your rebuilders. You do things right.
Love your humour Scott. And there's plenty to learn by listening and watching your videos. From an Aussie fan.
Well done Scott!
What no paint work! It just appears and is all done and painted?! That oil change bit was hilarious!
Been on a VEHCOR binge past several days. Love the videos; lots on helpful info... Even for a Ford guy like me. Did have one idea, although I doubt I'm the first to suggest it. Having one of those Quick Jack lifts on (or for) the trailer might be nice. Could make the "on trailer" repairs to get the vehicle off the trailer a bit faster and easier.
It could be flush mounted in the trailer deck with a flat cover on top. Probably would need a skid plate underneath to protect it from the road salt. Maybe coat the whole thing in cavity wax or fluid film.
I know not to ask about the Mustang, but how about just more Fords! Thanks for all the informative videos.
Two things I look forward to on fridays, boring builds and drinking!!!!
Does not get any better.
Thanks!
You are 100% correct about the oil changes. Sad problem.The oil is so diluted with gasoline you have to change it at 3000 miles no MORE... I confirm this issue by using Blackstone oil labs Analysis for one year on a brand new zero mi's 2.4l. from Gm. The fuel pressure levels are so radical with the change in charging system voltage on a lot of these cars. Just get your oil analysis every 3 to 6 mo.
Housekeeper Vehcor😂 damn it man I didn't realize how much work was left. It came out beautiful!
The town bicycle of automotive repair shops.
I have no idea what that means.
@@vehcor the bananas of apple auto repair barns
@@vehcor me either
My previous car (the one in my avatar) was a rebuilt repair and while they MOSTLY did a good job when the left rear side marker stopped working I took it off to replace the bulb and I saw that they re attached it using JB Weld instead of replacing it with one that had an actual clip to snap into the rear bumper.
Eh, if that is all they did, no big deal. It won’t hurt anyone. I mean they needed save that $15 after all! 😂
I like your bumper installing tool it work on everything
"Do It Once, Do It Well".....its not a hard concept, shame alot of folk dont get the process.
Another great rebuild Scott.
Once again thank you for an interesting finish to the build and hope to see more of the afternoon crew on your next build.
Thanks for your support!
@@vehcor Your very welcome, hope for more of the same !
Very nice build and hummer. Thanks for the share.
Damn, how I enjoy this gentleman's fine sarcasm, not to mention that this, like the others, is a good video.
I'm a long time follower, I'm still amazed on your work. junk-killed/sh*t cars come in short few F-days showroom quality comes out.. wow
Thanks for your support!
Scoot, awesome video, as usally. I glad what mr. Spotty is back. Congrads with awesome build!
I'll tell you what , Scott..... When I need some new brakes or tyres fitted , you're my man ! ;-) . ( Yes , I am English....)
Listen brother, i love your videos, i love your work and i would buy a rebuilt vehicle from you if i needed one...but it really takes no time to clean stuff before putting it back together. Its already off. Just spray it off, wipe it dry and boom its clean. Thats my only gripe. I hate dirty cars. Ive bought and fixed and sold cars for 14 years...i always sell super clean vehicles, yet i always get vehicles i have to clean myself... but cleaning a car is so satisfying and i truly enjoy it. If i was closer to Chicago, I'd come clean all that stuff for you.
I also change my oil every 2-3k miles. Always have always will. Manufacturers don't care about your car or engine or even you!
So much body fill to remove, so little time. Another great repair.
