- This is part 1 of my Pentastar 3.6L tear down series. In this video I take you along as I take apart a Chrysler Pentastar 3.6L while discussing the various parts of the engine and explain how they work. It's a fun video and a bit of a deviation from my normal "how to" stuff. I hope you enjoy!
Note: this video Is a very high level overview of this engine and the parts inside. This video should not take the place of a manual and the tear down methods used are not meant to be used. It's just a fun and informational video....that probably doesn't have all the information you could ever need for this engine.
Also, toward the end of the video I referred to the cam sprockets as "variable cam timing units" and "cam phasers". They can also be know as "Variable Valve Timing Units or Sprockets". Just an FYI.
Information about his engine and the specs at the beginning of this video was sourced from Wikipedia.

Thank you! Your voice and tone are perfect. Simple yet detailed explanations. Love it!
Better then automotive tech school great explanation and man that is a big engine for a six cylinder what a beast
Excellent explanation. Enjoyed learning about the components. Thanks 👍
Big thanks for this great video
You have no idea how helpful this video was for me
Glad to hear it!
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Have a 3.6 Pentastar V6 with E-torque in my Wrangler. Was curious to see the valve train assembly, especially lifters. Hope you can go into more detail in part 2.

I know it's a V6 but that engine looks huge.
Fantastic video and expert explanation. Thanks so much .
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice been wanting to take a look at the 3.6 responsible for powering my jeeps👍subscribed
Excelente video, muy bien explicado. Good Work..
Awesome, excellent video!
Thank you very much!
Awesome video!!
Thanks!
Expert explanation of this engine. Looks very complexed. I bet clean oil is very important. I change mine at 4,000 with synthetic 5w-20.
Coworker took the heads off and quit his job... leaving me with nothing labeled at all.. I've done countless headjobs but never this specific engine, this video was perfect to help speed up the process of sorting out the random bolts and parts and take a lot of stress off of my shoulders
That's awesome. I'm glad the video is helping.
Thanks for your time for the breakdown!!🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡
surprised that the PS engine is totally shot, thought the bottom end in particular were very sturdy
Great video. Will the upper pan have to be removed to remove the oil pump? Thx
This engine gets a lot of heat for its early issues with the rocker arms. But it’s a very decent motor overall. It has a good balance of power and fuel economy and it doesn’t use DI.
I'd have to agree with your point that it's an overall good engine. Thanks for the comment!
Great show. Is it an engine on the noisy side if it's chain driven?
I thought the headers are welded to the block how did you get them off? I have a v6 challenger
do you have an engine removal video from a 2014 grand cherokee?
How many miles was on this engine I’m just curious 🧐
Is this a reliable engine to buy? I am planning to buy Ram 1500 V6.
Yes, it's widely considered to be Stellantis most reliable engine.
What you claimed is what most mechanics would do
It was introduced in 2007, not 2011.
Yes, at an auto show. It was entered into production in 2011 for public use.
I had this P.O.S. motor in my 2016 Town and Country, bought it at 10k miles and by 78k miles I had 2 coil pack,8 rockers,4 rods,full coolant system replaced, all work was done under extended warranty, last straw for me was getting it back and saying to the guy ,cam phasers are clicking..sorry unless there's an error code we can't fix...There is no code for Cam phasers on this motor, This motor could've been as great as the 3.8 buick,unfortunately Chrysler chose to use cheap vendors, great detailed video
