Record by record

9 records state a cause or a remedy. Each record is shown as short labels in the order fault → finding the cause → correction. Press a label to narrow to the records that state it.

Symptom

Component named as the cause

A ribbon is as wide as the records that state both of its ends (only the commonest are drawn). A record that names several symptoms or components runs through each. Orange is records that say the fault came back or was not fixed. Results come from owners’ reports only; one that does not say is “result not stated”. None of this is a likelihood of a cause or a rate at which work succeeds.

Known issuesSingle-cylinder misfire (P0300-P0308) and/or chirp, squeak or tick at camshaft speed: worn cam lobe / lifter, valve or valve spring2

  1. Manufacturer communication2002–2006 GMC YUKON DENALI ・ 2018-11-13(4 earlier editions of this document folded here)

    Service Engine Soon Lamp, Misfire, Engine Noise Diagnostic Information

    1. 1Fault

      • Customers may complain of an SES light, engine misfire, and/or engine noise.
      • If the SES light is on, there will be a P0300-P0308 DTC with misfires counting on a single cylinder, which may or may not be felt.
      • A verified noise is not eliminated by canceling fuel injectors and occurs at camshaft speed (half of crankshaft speed).

    2. 2Finding the cause

      Possible causes

      • If SI diagnosis does not isolate the cause, it may be a worn camshaft lobe and/or lifter roller, a sticking valve, valve leakage, a broken valve spring, or a collapsed AFM (Active Fuel Management) lifter.

      Steps to confirm (in the document’s order)

      1. 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.
      2. If pressure on the valve side of the rocker changes the noise, it is most likely a lifter and/or cam lobe concern on that cylinder.
      3. Measure the cam lobe lift at the push rod side of the rocker arm.
      4. A good indicator of a sticking valve is engine misfires that continue to count on an aggressive deceleration with engine braking.
      5. Release the air pressure from the cylinder and work the valve up and down in the guide while turning it 360 degrees; if any binding is felt, a stem to guide clearance concern exists.

    3. 3Correction

      Repair

      1. If a worn camshaft lobe or lifter roller is found, follow SI procedures to replace the camshaft and all lifters.
      2. Also replace the plastic lifter guide for the lifter that had the damaged cam lobe and/or lifter roller.
      3. Refer to the latest version of PIP4753 for decarboning instructions.
      4. If a broken valve spring is found, replace the broken valve spring as necessary.

      Caution

      • If an AFM lifter concern is suspected, refer to the latest version of PIP4568 for additional information.

    Remedy
    This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician about vehicles that have a Service Engine Soon Malfunction Indicator Lamp on, engine misfire, and/or engine noise. Technician may find Diagnostic Trouble Codes P0300-P0308. If published Service Information diagnostics does not isolate the cause of this concern technician should check for a worn camshaft lobe and/or lifter roller, a sticking valve, valve leakage, a broken valve spring, and a collapsed active fuel management lifter.

      This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician about vehicles that have a Service Engine Soon Malfunction Indicator Lamp on, engine misfire, and/or engine noise. Technician may find Diagnostic Trouble Codes P0300-P0308. If published Service Information diagnostics does not isolate the cause of this concern technician should check for a worn camshaft lobe and/or lifter roller, a sticking valve, valve leakage, a broken valve spring, and a collapsed active fuel management lifter.

      What the documents say to do

      Single-cylinder misfire (P0300-P0308) and/or chirp, squeak or tick at camshaft speed: worn cam lobe / lifter, valve or valve spring

      Confirm

      • 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.

      Repair

      1. If a worn camshaft lobe or lifter roller is found, follow SI procedures to replace the camshaft and all lifters.
      2. Also replace the plastic lifter guide for the lifter that had the damaged cam lobe and/or lifter roller.

      Caution

      • A damaged cam lobe is easy to overlook when inspecting through the lifter bores; unworn lifter rollers do not mean the cam lobes are okay.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING2

    Diagnostic tip on valve, lifter or camshaft issues

    1. 1Fault

      • Misfire, chirp, squeak, squeal or tick noise, with the MIL illuminated and DTC P0300, P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306, P0307 and/or P0308 set.

    2. 2Finding the cause

      Possible causes

      • A worn cam lobe on this engine family generally creates a consistent chirp, squeak, squeal or tick at camshaft speed and/or a misfire with a P0300-P0308 DTC.

      Steps to confirm (in the document’s order)

      1. A verified noise is not eliminated by canceling fuel injectors and occurs at camshaft speed (half of crankshaft speed).
      2. If applying pressure to the valve side of a rocker changes the noise, a lifter and/or cam lobe concern on that cylinder is most likely.
      3. Measure cam lobe lift at the push rod side of the rocker arm; it differs from the SI specification but should be similar to the other rockers on the same bank.
      4. A bore scope or pen light helps when inspecting the cam lobes through the lifter bores; a damaged lobe is easy to overlook.
      5. A good indicator of a sticking valve is that misfires continue to count on an aggressive deceleration with engine braking.

    3. 3Correction

      Repair

      1. If a worn camshaft lobe or lifter roller is found, replace the camshaft and all lifters following SI procedures.
      2. If force is needed to tap the valve off its seat, excessive carbon build up exists, which may be repaired by decarbonizing the engine.

    From the manufacturer’s document

    • Applies to：GM passenger cars and trucks with V6/V8 pushrod engines, model years 2002 to 2023.
    • Condition：Misfire, chirp, squeak, squeal or tick noise, with the MIL illuminated and DTC P0300, P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306, P0307 and/or P0308 set.
    • Confirm：A verified noise is not eliminated by canceling fuel injectors and occurs at camshaft speed (half of crankshaft speed).
    • Cause：A worn cam lobe on this engine family generally creates a consistent chirp, squeak, squeal or tick at camshaft speed and/or a misfire with a P0300-P0308 DTC.

    • Repair：If force is needed to tap the valve off its seat, excessive carbon build up exists, which may be repaired by decarbonizing the engine.
    • Confirm：Valve leakage is typically isolated by the Cylinder Leakage Test in SI, which finds excessive leakage past an intake or exhaust valve compared with the others.
    • Confirm：The two pieces of a broken valve spring may stay stacked together and be hard to see; lightly pushing on different places on the springs with a small hammer handle may help.
