This was actually really informative thank you sm man

Not ALWAYS lifters. Seen video that shows injectors making the same type sound. Or exhaust bolts loose/broken. But as stated here: Oil oil oil- quality oil and timely changes

[dbspecials]

By the time it gets to this point it's too late, the lifter is collapsed. the way to avoid this in the first place is you have to change the hell out of the oil on the LS engines. it is also a popular trick to run 1 qt of Marvel Mystery oil, or even transmission fluid in the oil pan at all times with the oil. those are high in detergent, that keeps the orifice holes on the lifter clear and really does prevent this from happening. that's what I do. no valvetrain noises in my 2011 Vortec with over 130K.

Just stay away from jiffy lube or other quick lube places and do oil change right way regularly. No lifter issues guarantee

I have a Chevy suburban 2011 n it makes a clicking noise in front top left side of engine when I press gas from 0 to 40 miles then it stops 🤔seems similar to noise I heard on video thanks for info

And DO NOT over torque those valve cover bolts !!! If you don’t have a torque wrench, it’s best to be a little loose and slowly tighten as needed

I have a 2018 tahoe is making ticking noise were should I need to take it and have it checked out?

[richiemaya]

Do you need to check the cam? Or could you go ahead and just replace the lifter?

Good video
However next time film horizontally, not vertically

so changing out the rocker wouldn't fix the issue?

About to purchase 2010 Tahoe 145k miles … has this sound, done some research … do you think it’s to late to fix to run it past 300k miles ? Hearing the same sound … thx

[stoneyseahorse]

s there anyone in central / Southern California that can help me with my Yukon lifter issue. I love this car and it ran so strong .. new wheels and tires… last oil change and I’m looking at in my driveway everyday now.

How much does this usually cost to fix

[juanlanda]

How about a squeak squeak squeak only when it warms up 60k miles
