Still dropping cylinders with the in-line module 22 ZR2. Not happy.

The vehicle may still enter 0-cylinder mode while coasting (0% throttle). Disabling this feature created a negative effect on fuel economy and driving experience, but we'll release an update soon that will allow you to choose whether you turn that system off as well or not.

I have a 22 Chevy Silverado 1500 WT I ordered the first one and plugged it in under the dash in the OB port didn't work Send it back got my money back now I waited this long to get this updated version for my refresh Silverado Took the cover underneath the fender off plugged it into the bottom port just like the video shows got back in the truck took it around the block and guess what I'm still having cylinder shut down at a low idle and then when the truck finally comes to a stop it's almost like somebody pulls a plug out of my exhaust and it kicks back in and you can hear the exhaust come back to life I know this because I had dual exhaust put on my truck and when I drive around in L7 there is no interruption in my exhaust note but when I drive it in drive and I let off the accelerator the truck goes quiet even though I am still moving and until I either hit the accelerator again or come to a complete stop the truck silent but even at a dead stop again it's like somebody pulls a plug out of my exhaust and I can hear it again so that tells me this device is not keeping all eight cylinders on the whole time Very disappointed just got it yesterday put it on tonight and it sounds the same as it did before the install again if I put it in L7 it's a totally different truck and there is no interruption in the cylinders anybody else having this issue

@@BR549_o7 the engine going to 0-cylinder mode while coasting is a little bitt different than full DFM. We've done extensive testing and there is only one way to keep all 8-cylinders on while coasting, and that change caused a MASSIVE drop in fuel economy in our testing (2-3mpg), and you lose the built in engine braking, made for a not so pleasant driving experience, enough we chose to not incorporate that feature in the product. So until we discover another way to get around it, the engine may still go to 0-cylinders while coasting/decelerating.

@@rangetechnology8178 so, in the end, what is the difference from stock? In stock, the truck will never go to 0 cylinders when on the throttle, but will when coasting. Is the range guaranteed to be 8 cylinders "anytime" throttle is on? But it goes back to stock when off the throttle or braking.

Only works with 12th digit of the VIN 5 or higher? What kind of crap is this? I got an email that this product was available and called to place the order over the phone. No one told me that my VIN had to be a 5 or higher. No I have to go through the hassle of sending it back. This is the second time I got screwed by these guys. I bought a Pulsar LT in 2022 for my Sierra 2022 refresh. I called three times telling them I had the refresh and asked if it would work. No one seemed to even know there was a 2022 refresh. Isn't that their job? To know what vehicles are coming to market and whether or not their products are supported? I bought the Pulsar and didn't work with my vehicle. Lucky for them that nothing fried. Called again and told them it didn't work and someone finally told me it didn't work with the refresh. Now it happened again. How hard is it to make a product that works for everything. I now have a 2024 Sierra Dinali. This is supposed to support all of the refresh vehicles. Now I found out the 12th digit of my VIN needs to be 5 or higher. WTF. These people are idiots.
