  • @tedlewellen8064
    @tedlewellen80642 жыл бұрын

    The new 6.2 has DFM (Dynamic Fuel Management) lifters. They are controlled by the VLOM (valve lifter oil manifold). The old AFM system allowed the vehicle to switch from v8 to v4 mode when proper conditions allowed it to do so. The new DFM system allows the vehicle to operate with whatever combination the ECM deems most efficient and necessary. Whether thats V8, V7, V6.. all the way down to 1 cylinder firing. The issue with these systems, new and old, is that GM is sourcing very cheap components to facilitate the operation of these very complex and advanced systems. I'm surprised there has not been a lawsuit filed.

I have an assigned work vehicle so don’t drive it every day and we just got back from beach last Friday and now it has 14,000 plus miles on it. Had second service done at 10,000 miles at dealership and at 10,300 it dropped a lifted. Still would start and run but missed a lot. Tow and repair completely covered under warranty and they had it done within a week including weekend. Had it repaired same day parts came in and they replaced entire bank where lifter problems was. Even with that issue I still love my truck.

The newer AFM system seems to be more troublesome the the older DOD system. RAM runs a very similar system on their trucks also with most problems with the 5.7L hemi. The TRX doesn't use the system.

Towed to dealer and was told engine needs replaced. Blamed me for following manufacturer recommended service program. I was told I need to service it every 5k miles not the 7.5k MyChevy App, the dealer and chevy says. So a little dirty oil locked up the motor? Head mechanic said not to worry, his mechanic takes care of this all the time. Why didn't the sales person tell me that? I just rolled 20k miles on my 10 month old 2023 Silverado zr2.

    Frustrating, to say the least. I had a similar experience - I bought a new Ford F-150 with the V-6 Ecoboost engine a few years ago. Under 20k miles, the engine started billowing thick, white/blueish smoke from the tailpipe, accompanied by a metal on metal grinding sound in the engine when I accelerated. Read online that many were seeing the same issues. I didn't even try to resolve or investigate further, I took it straight to the dealer and traded it for a Toyota. I'd driven Toyotas my entire life, had decided to try one of these F-150's I'd heard so much about over the years because the mpg on the Ford ecoboost was so much better than Tundra. And the thing was a piece of junk. It's ridiculous to spend that much money on a vehicle and have problems right out the gate. The Tundra is awful on mpg, and the Tacoma is a bit small, but they just run. Chevy, Ford, GMC, all have some good looking trucks but I don't trust them to make a reliable product.

    I'm not a chevy guy, but people talk shit about ford all the time. I've NEVER been left on the side of the road in my car. Now it doesn't have A/C right now because the compressor won't... well.. compress air, but it's still going, and the only thing's i've replaced on it before 100k were the alternator and water pump. things that commonly go out on all cars. A/C Compressors are common to go out as well, but that's all cars as well. I would hope they warranty the engine because it's clearly a warranty issue, maybe the computer, maybe a chewed wire somewhere, who knows until it's diagnosed. Hopefully it's not too bad and it can be brought back asap. It would be neat to see a supercharged truck since chevy is very unlikely to even do one... they'd have to maybe put the ZL1 supercharger on the truck I think (still same engine... should fit right?!). Anyway, I would maybe look for an older chevy truck to beat on, I think lots of people enjoy those kinds of projects too.

    A lot of my friends have the marinized 6.2 engines by marine power In they’re commercial fishing boats and they’ve had a lot of issues with them as well. Seems it’s hard to beat the tried and true 6.0. It’s a shame cause the 6.2 put out such more power and Bette fuel economy

    That 6.0 is damn near bulletproof... I did have the lifters changed in mine at 79k, but the oil pump went out as well and I complained to the dealership about a ticking noise... covered under extended warranty... 2018 2500 gasser, btw

    RIP! IF you decide to keep it, best upgrade before adding a blower, is to delete the AFM lifters. There's a kit, which I dealt with the older version when I had an 09 G8 GT.. Kia does the same thing as far as waiting till the car is fully broke before fixing it. I had a 12' Optima which was known for engine problems so Kia extended the warranty for the engine. Did all the recalls, which showed the engine had problems, they wouldn't do anything, then on the hottest freakin summer day on the way to work... My engine blew leaving me on the side of the road for damn near 5hrs!! Kia did put me in a rental and put a new long block in, but a shame they wait till the engine blows. Chevy should fix it without any issue, especially since this is a well known problem. Interested to see what the actual issue is and what Chevy does..

    It’s most likely the AFM system (Active Fuel Management) the lifters in the cylinders that shut off while cruising may not have good oil flow, ultimately causing their downfall quite literally. They collapse and get stuck in off position and it puts the engine in limp mode after the computer registers a misfire. Sadly this has been happening for almost 15 years I think since they released these motors.

    Mine had a fuel injector fail at 126 miles and it drove to the service dept, very rough, died at the shop as I pulled in. It wouldn’t turn back on and they couldn’t even pull it around to check it. Anyway, it was a fuel injector and it took them a month to get a replacement bank.

Got truck back runs and sounds normal again idk if I’m going to keep it now probably get rid of it before bumper to bumper is up. Been gm all my life now thinking about a f250 diesel or maybe a 5.0 f150 definitely not a v6 just can’t accept that sound coming from a full size truck lol
