Thoughts on Range AFM Disabler - Page 2

Have had one on our '17 2SS for just over a year now.
No issues at all, and no more going into V4 mode.

You might add A8 or M6 to your profile so we know.

M6, and only a CAI and axleback for mods

I had one of the worst lag issues Mike from Soler ever tried to deal with I believe, so it's still not 100%, possibly surge coming back and I'm sick of it, especially when I get to drive my friends C7, and the throttle is perfect, ugh.

If you have M6 (manual transmission), then you don't have AFM

My 09 G8 GT had a stuck lifter due to the AFM. So I would recommend disabling it on the camaro's.

Just bought one for the V6 Hot wheels. Next is the 2020 SS

I got a 2 to 3 mpg less using the Range. I have it disconnected presently.

How often do people legitimately run into this lifter problem with the AFM? It seems like GM probably wouldn't want to do a ton of warranty work for free over an easily solvable problem...
