FaultCrate・GMC Yukon 2000–2006・Noise, Check engine / Service Engine Soon
Candidate cause (the documents say what to do)
Engine knock on cold start (carbon on piston)
Applies to: 4.8L, 5.3L, 6.0L only
The noise is usually more noticeable on initial start-up below 10°C (50°F) and may be more pronounced on the first cold start after a long trip.
The noise may be caused by an interaction between carbon formed on the piston, the piston motion and the cylinder wall.

No technical document states a check or a repair.
Caution: GM Powertrain Engineering confirmed the noise is not detrimental to the performance, reliability or durability of the engine.
