PROBLEM
In high load conditions, certain single piece forged steel pistons used in the Single Piece Cylinder System may develop hard deposits at the top land of the piston on certain PM3516 Power Modules. If severe enough, deposits may wear the liner crosshatch, compromising oil control, and contributing to additional deposit formation, wear, and blowby.

In order to allow equitable parts availability to all participating dealers, please limit your initial parts order to not exceed 32% of dealership population. This is an initial order recommendation only, and the ultimate responsibility for ordering the total number of parts needed to satisfy the program lies with the dealer.
ACTION REQUIRED
This Service Letter provides support for replacing the Single Piece Cylinder System components with the Cuff Liner and Piston Components System.
Note: DO NOT mix single piece forged steel pistons designed for the Single Piece Cylinder System with single piece forged steel pistons designed for the Cuffed Cylinder System. Rotating masses and system dynamics are different between the designs and are not compatible within the same engine.
Refer to UENR5578, Disassembly and Assembly, for the repair information.
Note: Install High Flow Piston Spray Jets and an Oil Pump Pressure Regulator cover to increase the engine oil pressure. Because of this update, also increase the oil filter pressure differential warning alarm set point.
- For PM3516 reset the Oil Filter Pressure Differential warning set point from 105KPA/15PSI to 138KPA/20PSI.
