Every week I post a new failed engine teardown video where we try to figure out what happened, why it happened, and what parts survived.
Here are a few of my past favorites:
Toyota Tundra V8 • Blown Up Toyota Tundra 5.7L 3UR-FE V8...
Ford 6.8L Triton 3v V10 • FORD 6.8L 3V V10 TEARDOWN! Big Engine...
Dodge 5.7L Hemi • Chrysler 300C 5.7L Hemi Teardown. SIN...
Dodge V10 • 8 LITERS OF DESTRUCTION! Dodge Ram V1...
Today we tear down a 5.6L VK56DE from a 2006 Nissan Titan Pickup. These are a very popular engine and Nissan sold a TON of these trucks. I do like these engines but they certainly aren't resistant to neglect and abuse. This poor engine died from lack of maintenance and proper oil level which absolutely DESTROYED 95% of the parts inside of this engine. its quite apparent through every step of this teardown that this engine was not cared for. This type of failure is 100% avoidable with proper maintenance and checking oil level routinely.
Why am I doing this? My name is Eric and I own and run a full service auto salvage business called Importapart. Part of our model includes dismantling core/blown engines to salvage the good parts to resell. We do NOT rebuild or repair engines, merely supply parts to those who do!
I really hope you enjoyed this video. As always I love all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism.
Catch you on the next one!
