What causes a tick noise on a GM Truck?
GM has determined that the cause may be any of the following: • a collapsed AFM (Active Fuel Management) lifter. Diagnose a worn cam lobe or lifter roller. GM states that a worn cam lobe creates a consistent chirp, squeak, squeal, or tick noise at camshaft speed, along with a misfire with trouble codes P0300-P0308.
Why does my GM P0300 make a squeaking noise?

Why does my GM Truck make a grinding noise?
Original front end. Today, almost all the way to work (20 miles) started to get a faint grinding from the front end. When I got to work, looked for obvious stuff stuck to the axle, but nothing. Going home, it was quiet at first, but after 20 miles, same noise. The noise is almost like that of the 4wd being engaged on dry pavement.
If the engine misfires continue to increase during aggressive deceleration with engine braking, or if the misfire occurs consistently, a static compression test, running compression test or cylinder leakage test may isolate the sticking valve.
Why does my push rod make a squeaking noise?
If the noise goes away, and you’ve confirmed valve spring, push rod and rocker arm are in good condition, then the cause is most likely a worn cam lobe or lifter roller. Measure the cam lobe lift at the push rod side of the rocker arm.

Remove the valve spring and valve keepers and wrap a rubber band around the valve keeper grooves to prevent the valve from falling into the cylinder. Release the air pressure from the cylinder and work the valve up and down in the guide while turning the valve 360 degrees.
