Diesel Talk: Duramax L5P Introduction - Live & Interactive Webinar Course

The Duramax V8 6600 latest model, the L5P, is the newest diesel engine offered by General Motors. The V8 diesel found in the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra provides 445 horsepower and 910-foot pounds of torque.

The engine is equipped with a new Denso common rail system. There are significant differences between the earlier model LML and the L5P. Fuel control starts with the low-pressure system equipped with a fuel pump driver module that is part of the CAN network. System charging is enhanced using the Body Control Module (BCM) to control system voltage and use of a current sensor. The aftertreatment is installed at the outlet of the turbocharger. The DEF reductant injector continues to provide the fluid needed in the exhaust to reduce NOX emissions. Service of this system is of concern. Turbocharger has been changed with enhanced actuator vane control. Engine mechanical between the LML and the L5P are similar with service procedures changed.

This 1.5 hour webinar will provide the attendee information on the Duramax L5P and subsystems and how it compares to early LML systems. There will be discussion on the L5D found on medium duty trucks and International applications. This information will include new diagnostic strategies and use of the scan tool. Service information discussion will cover typical Diagnostic Trouble Codes and service procedures.

Webinar Course Objective: Given the web presentation on the Duramax L5P platform, the attendee will have a general understanding of new service and diagnostic procedures of this vehicle.
