| PIP5337H | 2017-08-15. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION; POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:TORQUE CONVERTER. This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician on the step to diagnose and repair the vehicles that may have a shake or shudder during light throttle acceleration, between 30 and 65 miles per hour steady state driving. Also shudder feeling that may be described as driving over rumble strips or rough pavement. Technician will need to run the vehicle in three different operational modes. The three modes are Normal, torque converter clutch open, and torque converter clutch closed. Technician will need to press and hold the tow-haul mode button for five seconds to disable grade braking to prevent downshifts during test. Technician will need to duplicate the concern in Normal mode. If the concern is gone in torque converter clutch open and closed then the torque converter should be replaced. If the concern is not present in normal mode, torque converter clutch open, and torque converter clutch closed the concern is not with the shudder. Technician should use of the PICO scope and Noise, Vibration and Harshness software can be used to confirm torque converter clutch shudder, Engine, Tire or Driveline component related conditions. Flush the cooler lines and cooler using DT-45096 transmission oil cooling system flush and flow test tool when the torque converter is replace. |

| PIT5206E | 2017-05-22. Service bulletin. SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:PEDALS AND LINKAGES; PARKING BRAKE; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INTEGRATED TRAILER BRAKE CONTROL; POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION; ENGINE. THIS PRELIMINARY INFORMATION COMMUNICATION PROVIDES INFORMATION TO THE TECHNICIAN WITH THE STEPS ON DIAGNOSING AND REPAIRING VEHICLES THAT MAY HAVE UNWANTED GRADE BRAKING, REDUCED ENGINE POWER WITH NO DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER MESSAGES “ BRAKE PEDAL OVERRIDE FEATURE “, TRANSMISSION BUSY OR FREQUENT SHIFTING UP OR DOWN, AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES P057B, P057C, AND/OR P057D MAY OR MAY NOT BE SET. TECHNICIAN WILL USE THIS PRELIMINARY INFORMATION TO FIND THE BRAKE PEDAL POSITION DATA PARAMETERS IN THE SCAN TOOL, AND ALSO TO PROVIDE SOME ADDITIONAL DIAGNOSTIC HELP. THESE ISSUES MAY BE CAUSED BY AN INCORRECT BRAKE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR INPUT TO THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE. TECHNICIAN WILL VERIFY WITH THE SCAN TOOL IF THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE HAS THE CORRECT PARAMETERS FOR THE BRAKE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR. IF AN ENGINE CONTROL MODULE BRAKE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR RELEARN IS PERFORMED, THE TRUCK MAY BE TEMPORARILY REPAIRED UNTIL THE INTERMITTENT WIRING ISSUE BETWEEN THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE AND BRAKE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR OCCURS AGAIN. ON 2014 AND NEWER TRUCKS INSPECT AND REPAIR ANY DAMAGE TO X115 AND X119. ON THE 2014 AND PREVIOUS TRUCKS INSPECT AND REPAIR ANY DAMAGE TO X205. |
| 16-NA-014 | 2017-04-11. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THIS TECHNICAL BULLETIN PROVIDES A PROCEDURE TO REPLACE THE STATOR SHAFT SUPPORT TO CORRECT CUSTOMER CONCERN ON A DELAYED ENGAGEMENT WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED FROM PARK TO REVERSE OR PARK TO DRIVE AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SITTING WITH THE ENGINE OFF DUE TO THE TORQUE CONVERTER DRAINING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID BACK INTO THE TRANSMISSION PAN. |
| PIP5261A | 2017-03-21. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN:TRANSFER CASE (4-WHEEL DRIVE); EQUIPMENT. THIS PRELIMINARY INFORMATION COMMUNICATION PROVIDES INFORMATION TO THE TECHNICIAN THAT SOME VEHICLES MAY HAVE A HIGH PITCHED WHINE NOISE FROM THE VEHICLE NOTICED WHEN DRIVING IN AUTO 4WD. WHEN THE TRANSFER CASE CONTROL MODULE HAS TO MOVE THE TRANSFER CASE ACTUATOR MOTOR THE HIGHER CURRENT PASSING THROUGH THE MODULE CAUSES AN "ELECTRONIC BUZZ OR WHINE" WITHIN SOME OF THE CAPACITORS IN THE MODULE THAT CAN BE HEARD BY SOME OF OUR CUSTOMERS. THIS CAN ONLY BE HEARD WITH ALL ACCESSORIES AND HVAC OFF AND ONLY WHEN ACTUATOR MOVEMENT IS REQUIRED. THIS DOES NOT INDICATE A CONCERN WITH THE MODULE AND SHOULD NOT BE REPLACED TO ADDRESS THIS CONCERN. |

TECHNICIAN WILL TEST TO DETERMINE IF THE CRANK SHAFT END PLAY IS WITHIN SPECIFICATION 0.0015–0.0086 INCH. IF END PLAY IS FOUND TO BE OUT OF SPECIFICATION, REMOVE ENGINE AND INSPECT FOR POSSIBLE CRANKSHAFT THRUST BEARING AND/OR CRANKSHAFT FOR WEAR. INSPECT THRUST BEARING FOR WEAR ON ONE SIDE AND CRANKSHAFT ON THAT “MATING” SURFACE. IF THE THRUST BEARING HAS THREE VERTICAL CHANNELS WORN OFF REPLACE CONNECTING ROD BEARINGS, MAIN BEARINGS, THRUST BEARING AND CRANKSHAFT. IF WORKING ON A CORVETTE THE OIL TANK WITH LINES AND OIL COOLER ARE BOTH REQUIRED TO BE REPLACED IF EQUIPPED. |

THIS PRELIMINARY INFORMATION COMMUNICATION PROVIDES INFORMATION TO THE TECHNICIAN THAT SOME VEHICLES MAY HAVE A SERVICE ENGINE SOON LAMP, ENGINE MISFIRE ON CYLINDER 1, 4, 6, OR 7 AND/OR TICK NOISE. TECHNICIAN WILL FOLLOW SERVICE INFORMATION DIAGNOSIS FIRST. IF SERVICE INFORMATION DIAGNOSIS DOES NOT ISOLATE THE CAUSE OF THIS CONCERN PERFORM A CYLINDER DEACTIVATION ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM COMPRESSION TEST IN SERVICE INFORMATION. IF THE RUNNING COMPRESSION OF THE MISFIRING CYLINDER STAYS BELOW 25 POUNDS PER SQUARE INCH REGARDLESS OF THE ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT SOLENOID BEING COMMANDED ON OR OFF, AN ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT LIFTER IS MECHANICALLY COLLAPSED/STUCK OR UNLOCKING AS SOON AS THE ENGINE IS STARTED. REPLACE ALL ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT LIFTERS, AND ALL PLASTIC LIFTER GUIDES. ALSO PERFORM THE CYLINDER DEACTIVATION ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT VALVE LIFTER OIL MANIFOLD DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING IN SERVICE INFORMATION. IF IT ISOLATES A CONCERN WITH THE VALVE LIFTER OIL MANIFOLD, REPLACE IT AND REEVALUATE THE CONCERN. THE ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT LIFTERS CAN ALSO BE MONITORED FOR PROPER OPERATION BY CAREFULLY INSPECTING THE CYLINDER 1, 4, 6, AND 7 ROCKERS AND VALVES WHILE CRANKING OR BRIEFLY AND SAFELY RUNNING THE ENGINE WITH THE VALVE COVERS REMOVED. IF THE VALVE OR VALVES OF AN ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT CYLINDER STOP MOVING WHILE DOING THIS TEST, THE ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT LIFTER IS CAUSING THE CONCERN. FOR 2008-2009 FULL SIZE TRUCK/SUV OR A 2007-2009 CHEVROLET TAHOE WITH THE POLICE PACKAGE REPROGRAM THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE.
