Lately my LLY with 110K has an occasional hiccup (miss) at idle, either in park or drive at a stoplight. It doesn't do it often, maybe once a day. I've never experienced it while driving down the road. Is this an indication of an impending injector problem ?? I've used Power Service at every fillup since new.

It doesn't sound like an injector issue, but could be an injector harness issue, specifically cylinder 2 and/or 7, which is a common LLY issue (there's a recall/TSB regarding it). Injector issues can be intermittent, but not commonly only once a day.

My 05 had random issues with a similar "hiccup" that sounded more like a ping or detonation. Very sharp, but relatively faint and hard to distinguish. If conditions were right it would get a slurred sound and start setting codes for an injectoir bank. I had the #2 and #7 connectors done under warranty. Before I sold the truck I washed under hood thoroughly as I had been a bit lax about this. While idling with the hood to dry out it started to slur and run crappy.

I took it to my local dealer as he had worked on this before. He found a harness issue with bare wires over near the Alternator etc.
