I thought stuck lifters was caused by bad oil like taking too long between oil changes? I have a gmc 2007 5.3L and my lifter on cylinder 7 got stuck. I have them all out now and will replace all of them. What do you recommend to make sure my afm lifters dont do this again? Im gonna buy a new updated vlom as well. Thank you.
P0300-P0308 Stuck AFM lifters. And the lifters are under the heads, not the intake. New camshaft and set of lifters. I did so many of these at the dealership during these year model run, I could do the job in my sleep. ASE & GM Certified Heavy Line Chevy dealership technician.
It sucks because I've disabled the AFM in my Tahoe, and I'll still have a collapsed lifter every 100k miles or so. (320k miles currently).
It's honestly not a difficult job at all. It's just a lot of steps. That doesn't negate the fact that i hate engineers though for designing the AFM. lol
My 2010 Silverado 4.8l just developed a lifter issue, it’s got the P0301 cylinder #1 misfire code, I just paid the truck off, I got the truck with 90k miles it’s got 190k now so I paid all that money for a truck that only lasted me a 100k miles I’m so pissed! I never owned a vehicle that developed major engine issues this is the 1st, I’m a Chevy guy but they ripped me off on this truck so they just lost a customer I’m getting a Toyota tundra f*ck Chevy there junk now!
Let me finish what he forgot to mention you cannot access the lifter by just pulling the intake the heads have to come off and and if it’s an AFM have to replace it with the same kind of lifter people will mistake a misfire code with a collapsed lifter
oh man i wish i check that before removing it, what was the engine doing? was it having a miss fire and no compression, that's what's going on with mine with the same cylinder, i just post it a reel on it, makes me want to put it back and check, I'm replacing it.

Get an Allen wrench tap it in hole to release and reset a code to run correctly
Well the customer hopes its an easy fix
Good mechanic
wait chevy made 5.3l's as a straight 5 cylinder?
Will this give a P0300 and a P0301?

You mean pulling the head up not just the intake, cause the lifters are under the head.

Chevy start to make junk just like Ford. Time to start boycotting Chevy too.
And people still buy the crap

Where are you located
Head is coming out soon
The failure must be due to AFM, not one of GM's best ideas.
