Refer to the following diagnosis and service procedures for details. Test drive the vehicle cold. The knock noise is most noticeable while the engine is under load at approximately 1500 rpm. The concern may be verified on automatic transmission-equipped vehicles by first setting the parking brake, and with the wheels chocked, starting the engine and placing the vehicle in gear. Verify the knock noise is coming from the AIR Pump by using a technician’s stethoscope while the engine speed is approximately 1500 rpm. THE NEW AIR PUMP IS ORIENTED IN A POSITION 180 DEGREES OPPOSITE TO THE PRODUCTION AIR PUMP.
