How is AFM Implemented in the Manual Camaro?
Is AFM on all the time in the Camaro with manual transmission or can you turn it off like you can in the C7?

It's not implemented on the M6 based Camaros, only A8.

Thanks, that's a relief. I'm assuming there isn't any of that skip shift stuff that's in the C7 either?

M6 have no AFM, but do have skip shift.

Nope it has that. Easy $20 fix it is bothers you, I hardly ever hit mine though. It only works between like 15-19 mph...

Does it light up in the dash like in the Corvettes? On my Z06 I would just burp the gas when the 1-4 light came on and it would quickly cancel it.

AFM comes on the A8 - Only
M6 comes with Skip Shift - You can disable this either in the Tune or a Wire above the transmission but below the console... |

I thought the M6 cars came with the AFM stuff but just didn't have it enabled? I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere...

That is my understanding too. The hardware is there in the engine but it is not software enabled - thank goodness!

I, for one, am a big fan of AFM. Hitting 35 mpg average on the interstate is why.
