A 2021 - 2025 vehicle equipped with a HFV6 Gen2 engine with
AFM may be brought into the dealership with misfires on
cylinder 2 or 5 and may be accompanied by a rough idle
complaint.
This could be misfire all the time or start after an AFM event
that may or may not go away.
We have also seen this on a cold start that then goes away.
We have determined there is an issue with some rockers /
SRFF's on the vehicles within Model Years listed above.
Correction:
If you have a vehicle with this concern, swap the AFM rocker oil control solenoid in the
camshaft cover from side to side and reevaluate.
If the misfire goes away or moves to the other bank, replace the AFM oil control solenoid.
If the misfire remains or comes back after an AFM event or a cold start on the same
cylinder, remove that bank camshaft cover and turn the engine over by hand while closely
watching the valves on the misfiring cylinder.
If the cylinder was a dead misfire all the time and the valves open, continue with normal
misfire diagnosis.
If the valves do not open(either intake or exhaust) replace all 4 rockers / SRFF's and all 4
SHLA's / lifters for the affected cylinder.
NOTE: This PI will be updated or changed to a bulletin when engineering has decided there
is no longer a parts concern with these rockers or a new part comes out.
