This is the 2.0L turbo engine?
My car is an SS, and brand new, so I've not had occasion to take it apart, but looking at a photo of the starter from RockAuto, it looks like there are two additional holes that I suspect are for dowel pins, right next to the bolt holes that hold it on the bell housing. Have you tried pulling the starter toward the front of the car? You may have to encourage it by prying it away from the bell housing with a screw driver or something. |

The two bolts holding the starter to the bell housing appear to be same length based on pictures in the repair manual.

This is the 2016 camero lt v6
There are 2 bolts that face the nose of the car and 1 bolt that faces the ass of the car. The green arrow is the "3rd hidden bolt"* I believe all 3 are a 15mm THE STARTER WILL COME OUT EASY AS **** IF ALL THREE BOLTS ARE OFF!!!! DO NOT HAMMER AND FORCE IT OUT!!!! I also took out the exhaust canister completely disconnected the 2 o2 sensors and took that bitch out |
