Service Procedure
1. Check the vehicle build date. Was the vehicle built on 1-Apr-2016 and through 1-Jan-2017?
(1). Yes – proceed to Step 2.
(2). No – this article does not apply. Refer to the Powertrain Control/Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) Manual for normal diagnostics.
2. Does the vehicle exhibit any of the following conditions/symptoms: white or blue smoke from the exhaust, rough idle, an illuminated MIL and DTCs P0300, P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306, P0316, P0524 and/or P06DD with the excessive oil consumption?
(1). Yes – replace the cylinder heads. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-01.
- During service and repair achieving proper torque of the crankshaft pulley bolt is critical. Incorrect torque may allow the bolt to loosen resulting in the timing gear breaking and engine damage. Replacement of the bolt is critical to the repair. The bolt requires a 4 stage torque procedure. Hold the pulley using a universal holding tool OTC 4754 or equivalent. Refer to WSM, Section 303-01. The bolt torque procedure can be found in the crankshaft front seal removal and installation procedure or in the engine assembly procedure.
- Stage 1: 225 Nm (166 lb.ft)
- Stage 2: Loosen 360°
- Stage 3: 35 Nm (26 lb.ft)
- Stage 4: Tighten 270°.
(2). No – this article does not apply. Refer to the PC/ED Manual for normal diagnostics.
