2015 Grand Caravan, 118k miles on the clock. Did the rockers on bank 1 at around 85k miles and now the second bank is ticking. Time to do that one as well.

What must have caused that problem?

What must have caused that problem?

It's a known issue, likely poor quality parts.

Van is a trooper though, transports everything I can throw at it without complaints.

I had mini vans and a Journey with that motor. Either one got 26 mpg calculated. Plenty of power. Local Sheriff cars have the 3.6.

2020 ProMaster 2500

81,000 miles.

Did intake cam/rockers/lash adjusters on bank 1 and exhaust cam and accessories on bank 2.

Had only planned on oil filter adapter as it was leaking. Noticed valve cover Gaskets starting to weep, so pulled those and saw cam lobes with this wear. Easy job, just time consuming, especially on this nearly cab-over van.
