Yes and No. Yes you can but you would have to change the bcm, ecm, a lot of wire looms, mounting bracket, motor mounts ect. So no I wouldn't recommend it. It would be so much easier to get a 3.4 engine out of a junk yard. They were put in many GM vehicles. Grand Am, Impala, Monte Carlo, Aztek, Venture, Silhouette, Montana, Equinox and of course the Rendezvous. I think that's all of them. I hope that helps you.

2005 Buick Rendezvous will from time to time, not start. When that Happens i often hear a lot of clicking behind the dash. After a few moments, and a few tries, it starts when i turn the key slowly. I have had the starter and battery replaced. Could this be a faulty ignition switch, or simply a fuse going bad? 1 Answer
