Haha nope! Unfortunately this has became a very common issue with vehicles that have active fuel management and cylinder deactivation. The lifters they use are weak and come apart and bend the push rod.One of these ain’t like the other
I literally just put my truck in the shop for this. 2021 Sierra Elevation. Busted my ass to save for this exact truck and it didnt last 300 days. Give it to me real, are these trucks going to last 5+ years after the push rods and lifters get replaced?Another gravy train today lol View attachment 136362
What brands are having the issues? Specific motors or just random?Haha nope! Unfortunately this has became a very common issue with vehicles that have active fuel management and cylinder deactivation. The lifters they use are weak and come apart and bend the push rod.
I work at a GM dealer. So far it’s been any engine that has cylinder deactivation. Most I have replaced lifters in has had the 5.3 and today was the first time on a 6.2. GM had a bad batch of lifters they claim and supposedly had corrected it. We shall see I suppose.What brands are having the issues? Specific motors or just random?
Pretty much what my mechanic told me when I was shopping. Stay away from those which drop cylinders for mileage.I work at a GM dealer. So far it’s been any engine that has cylinder deactivation.

Back in the 70’s and early 80’s they had cam issues. Weren’t hardened properly. Wore out prematurely. Had a recall out later but mileage cutoff and parts only covered wasn’t advantageous since labor was the majority of the cost.I work at a GM dealer.

Don’t worry camshafts are still an issueBack in the 70’s and early 80’s they had cam issues. Weren’t hardened properly. Wore out prematurely. Had a recall out later but mileage cutoff and parts only covered wasn’t advantageous since labor was the majority of the cost.
