Cylinder 6 Pressure Too High

Check these first

• A pre-ignition or detonation event on cylinder 6
• Heavy carbon buildup raising compression on cylinder 6
• A failed cylinder 6 pressure sensor reading high
• A mismatched piston or head on cylinder 6
• Over-advanced timing on cylinder 6

What to do next

1. Check live cylinder 6 pressure against the other cylinders
2. Listen for detonation or ping on cylinder 6
3. Compare the cylinder 6 sensor to a known good one
4. Check base ignition timing and knock sensor data
5. Repair carbon or timing faults if the mechanical test confirms it
6. Clear the code and retest
