I have done the drivers side twice on 2 of my Impalas, 2008 & 2016, they will start failing around 90K miles. my 2008 had 230K miles on it, these cars are so reliable that I cant believe they haven't fixed this issue its very annoying. The passenger side has easy access to change but the drivers side is an hours long job, I used a cheap Harbor freight flexible screwdriver to finally get the screws out. Not sure if its worth it, don't let the youtubers tell you its easy, it isn't unless you like laying upside down on your head ! lots of little cuts and bruises when done.
I replace mine in abt 45 mins first time today wasn’t hard at all just make sure to move the seat all the way back and the steering wheel all the way up
I just did this yesterday,4 screws 2electric harness,4 1/2 hrs. Now I have another problem my front brakes locking up ,my abs light andecs,somestablelizer light stays on any suggestions on where to start..disc pads r good full of fluid, calipers look good I could c it if it wasone I side but both so hot you couldn't touch them..could this b cause I didn't unhook my battery when changing my acularter.... 9:20 on
For the record my Impala does not have anti-lock brakes Stabili-Trak or traction control so I wouldn't know. It could be a number of things from a bad wheel speed sensor, a bad anti-lock brake module, the list goes on. These gen nines were bad about having issues with this.
GM makes the plastic gears so cheap they break, but with a bit of glass reinforced filler in the plastic, it would be just fine, but cheap GM screws us all over for 1/100th of a cent for each gear by doing what they do!

It's definitely a tedious process but it can be done. This was the first time I replaced one of the blend door actuators in this car.
