Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2006 Chevy cobalt 2.2L can I swap out with an engine from a 2008

Nope a 2008 will have a completely different calibration than the 2006. If you do get it to fit the computer will need to be recalibrated, and I don’t see anybody doing it anymore.

if you swap.. you will need all your engine hardware to go into the other engine.
