Service Bulletin Bulletin No.: 06-00-89-031H Date: September, 2022 INFORMATION Subject: OEM and Remanufactured Engine and Automatic Transmission/Transaxle Identification Models: 2003–2023 GM Passenger Cars and Trucks Attention: This bulletin also applies to any of the above models that may be Export from North America vehicles. This bulletin has been revised to add the 2023 Model Year and an Important statement. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 06-00-89-031G. Important: Service agents must comply with all International, Federal, State, Provincial, and/or Local laws applicable to the activities it performs under this bulletin, including but not limited to handling, deploying, preparing, classifying, packaging, marking, labeling, and shipping dangerous goods. In the event of a conflict between the procedures set forth in this bulletin and the laws that apply to your dealership, you must follow those applicable laws. The purpose of this bulletin is to show dealers and retailers how to find engine and automatic transmission/transaxle identification information for OEM built service engines, manufactured for GM service engines, and re-manufactured for GM service engines. OEM Identification Information The engine bar code tag is usually in one of several places. The bar code tag could be on a rocker arm cover, the ends of a cylinder head or on the oil pan or the oil rail area of the engine. The information required from the tag is the 3 position alpha-numeric code which identifies the model of the engine and the series of numbers at the bottom of the tag. The number of digits will vary depending on the engine application. All the numbers will be required to process an engine request. If this is the original engine in the vehicle, the engine information is available in IVH (Investigate Vehicle History). Choose the Vehicle Component selection, the 3 position alpha-numeric code is the Part/Num Broadcast section and the Traceability section is the bar code information that is required. It may be easier to use IVH (Investigate Vehicle History) to obtain the necessary information; however, it is only valid for the original engine. All original equipment identification information is also available in SI. To easily find the information for the vehicle line you are working on, select the vehicle type and type the word “identification” in the search box. This search (described below) will provide the list of the different assemblies to choose from.

The majority of these engines have oversized cylinders and oversized pistons ring packs are not available for service. Refer to SI for the engine you are working on. If crankshaft bearing replacement is required, be sure to measure a crankshaft before ordering bearings. If the crankshaft has been turned, it will require replacement with all new standard size bearings and crankshaft. Refer to SI for the engine you are working on. When determining if a repair should be performed on a remanufactured for GM engine, contact the Technical Assistance Center (TAC) to discuss parts availability. GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, NOT a “do-it-yourselfer”. They are written to inform these technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, DO NOT assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See your GM dealer for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information. WE SUPPORT VOLUNTARY TECHNICIAN CERTIFICATION
