Cheapest CLA Engine Replacement

Описание: Swapping an Engine in a Mercedes CLA | Full Engine Change in Under 4 Hours! 🔧🔥

Welcome back to Fixing Cars with Josh and Andy! In today’s episode, we’re tackling a full engine swap on a Mercedes CLA – from pulling the old blown motor to installing a fresh one from an A-Class donor car.

We’ve already diagnosed the original engine as completely toasted in a previous video, and now it’s go-time. The goal? Get the old engine out and the new one in, running, in as little time as possible. Spoiler alert: we manage it in just over 3 hours!

Along the way:

Deal with tight time challenges and a few laughs 😅

From removing the front end to the moment the engine roars back to life, we cover every step of the process – with real talk, real problems, and real progress.
