This PI will cover the engine exchange program onlyfor the 2019 model listed above.
Additional PIs will be published for each engineor component as they are introduced.
During the launch of the 2019 model yea,rthe following engine will beunder an exchange program:
2.7L Engine Assembly (RPO L3B)
Product teams continually seek valuable information for engineering improvements.
To assist in this effort, an engine exchange program will be used for the listed engine and vehicles
The 2019 model year engine exchange program will be administered by the GM Product Quality Center
(PQC).
Dealerships are required to call the PQC, not GM eTchnical Assistance (TAC), to request an
exchange.
Prior to calling the PQC, please make sure to complete the “OEM Engine Exchange” template in this
PI.
Use of the templates will minimize the time spent on the telephone and avoid the need of a secon
call to the PQC.
Guidelines for honoring exchange requests under this program are being strictly enforced.
The PQC may refer the dealer technician to TAC if additional diagnosis is required. TAC will be
available for product inquiries that do not require assembly replacement.
Division PQC Telephone Number
US Cars and Trucks Canada — English and French
1-866-654-7654
Components that may be removedand serviced withoutexchange are identified by an “X” in the
appropriate column of the table below.
Any repairs involving engine components not identified in the table belo,wengine noise concerns, oil
consumption, or relatedsymptoms may require an engine exchange.
Important: Engine block and internal components along with any component in which a cylinder head
has to be removed to performthe repair will require an engine exchange.
Please note that this list is subject to change as the program progresses.
You will be notified by the PQC consultant if additional items are considered serviceable on a
particular engine.

Important: Engine repairs or failures that are causedby components external to the engine do NOT
fall under the exchange program. For example, if an engine failure is caused byincorrectly
installed engine coolant lines, the engine assembly (or parts required to complete a repair) must
be obtain from General Motors Customer Care and Aftersales (GMCC&A) through the normal parts
ordering process. The exchange programis created as a way to correct internal concerns and to take
what is learned and find a way to eliminate these concerns. Externalcomponents causing a failure do
not provide any useful information in improving an engine. The engine received from GMCC&tAhrough
the normal parts ordering process will be a new service engine.
Engine Broadcast Code Location 2.7L Engine Assembly(RPO L3B)
As shown in the abovephoto, the engine broadcast code can be found on the engine front cove. r
Procedures:
A thorough diagnosis must be performed on the condition in order to prevent unnecessary component
replacements.
Contact the Product Quality Center (PQC) to verify the proper diagnosis has been performed.
Upon review of the diagnosis, the PQC will establish a case reference number and maek arrangements
for shipping an exchangeunit to your dealership.
The replaced engine must be returned to the Warranty Parts Center (WPC). DO NOT SHIP AN ENGINE TO
THE (WPC) WITHOUT AN OFFICIAL WPC REQUES. T
Important: Failure to return the replaced engine by the due date will result in the dealership
being debited the entire warrantyclaim (parts and labor).
The removed unit must be returned complete in the original exchange shipping contain.er
For effective engineering analysis, please do not remove any components.
Dress items on the removed unit must remain the same as the replacement engine (e.g., exhaust
manifolds, throttle body, etc.). Dealerships returning engines/components that have been even
partially disassembled will be judged as violating this procedureand, as such, will be billed for
all materials furnished.
Notice: The exchange unit will be shipped with a quantity of oil; check oil level before starting
the engine.
WPC Request:
The Warranty Parts Center (WPC) will fax a Specai l Part Request to your dealership requesting the
return of the removed engine.
DO NOT wait for the warranty claim to be paid before returning the removed engine. The Special Part
Request will provide a request number.
This request number must be written on the outside of the return container using a permanent
marker.
Failure to write the request number on the return container may delay the processing of your
return.
If you do not receive the WPC Special Part Request, contact Julie Cumo at 248-371-9939 (for rFench
call PQC 1-866-654-7654)to obtain the proper paperwork in order to return the removed engine.
Failure to return the engine may result in a debit.
Shipping Preparation:
1. Remove the engine assembly/component as outlined in the applicable Service Manual.
2. Drain all fluids from the removed engine.
3. Retorque any fasteners that were loosened or removed to the original torque specification.
4. Remove any plastic shipping plugs and covers from the exchange unit and install them on the
removed unit.
5. If the concerned engine leaks, mark the area directly on the engine with a permanent maerrk.
6. Write the PQC case reference number on the repair order form.
7. Write the PQC case reference number directly on the component in a visible location.
8. Insert a copy of the WPC Special Part Request, repair order with technician comments, and the
completed OEM EngineExchange Worksheet (template in this bulletin) into a plastic bag and securely
fastento the engine.
9. Place the removed engine into the original shipping containe. r
