FYI: SCV6 cylinder numbering

[Michael Gain]

I found this the other day on Topix and meant to post it earlier. When I did need it, I could not find it on Google.

Basically, the SCV6 does not follow conventional even and odd banks---passenger-side being 1, 3, 5; and driver side being 2, 4, 6.

Hopefully, this helps someone to better trouble shoot when the time arises.

Interesting they would change the numbers from the V8.

 

[Michael Gain]

I agree. It doesn't make sense to me.

Well at least #1 and #6 are the same!

This helped me. I am getting a massive misfire in Cyl 6 on my 2016 SCV6 L319.

What was the cause of the misfire (or are you still figuring it out)?

I’m actually in Topix now trying to print up the coil and plug removal procedure ms

Got it. Good luck and keep us posted.

DIN standard measures from the free end per bank

ISO standard measures from the driven end alternatively

Still it’s very odd why they would change things.

For rear driver side (#6 on diagram) just remove the side of the battery box and the stop/stop battery. It's much easier to get the socket in that way and buys you some space to maneuver the coil out and back in. Also good for removing the injector; if it comes to that.
