Single-cylinder misfire (P0300-P0308) and/or chirp, squeak or tick at camshaft speed: worn cam lobe / lifter, valve or valve spring
1 matching record
Customers may complain of an SES light, engine misfire and/or engine noise.
A verified noise is not eliminated by canceling fuel injectors and occurs at camshaft speed (half of crankshaft speed).
How to tell
What to do
- If pressing on the valve side of the rocker changes the noise, a lifter and/or cam lobe concern on that cylinder is most likely.
- The misfiring/ticking cylinder should have less cam lobe lift than comparison cylinders if a worn lifter roller and/or cam lobe is the cause.
- During the noise, press with a wooden hammer handle on the rocker arms at the valve side, push rod side, and side of the rocker to find which one is making noise.
- Measure the cam lobe lift at the push rod side of the rocker arm.
