Can you please share your views? Will the reliability be helped (I guess again theoretically) if the AFM will not be kicking in?

I mostly drive with a relatively light foot in the city and suburban traffic, and I see the V4 indicator light coming on quite often.

Also, I wonder if any of you guys with a high mileage record experienced troubles due to the AFM mechanics. Or is the danger of a failure simply overstated? Thank you.
I just tuned my car so I'm selling a Range if your interested. I used if for almost a year with absolutely no issues $100
