Iv had mine on my 2016 for about 55k miles and still works amazing never any problems and keeps my carven competitor series exhaust sounding like a beast no more puttering in 4cyl mode like a honda. I installed a peddle commander and Airaid cold air intake around the same time for even better throttle response and driving it still amazes me every time.

First, thank you for your service to our country. Second, I am aware this is an old vid but a very helpful one as I am purchasing a used Silverado 1500 with 60k miles on it. I will definitely invest into one of these Range AFM plug ins, although it is up in price to $220 as of 1/3/2022, I think it is well worth it. Thanks again, thumbs up.

I have a 2020 LTZ with the 5.3L V-8 and 8 speed auto. It has DFM instead of AFM, which means it may be running on a variable number of cylinders, all the way down to one. I recently discovered that if I drive with the transmission in L7 it does not shut off any cylinders. GM did a good job of implementing the DFM, but the truck is still noticeably smoother and more responsive with all the cylinders running. I enjoy driving it even more with such a superb V-8.

That’s the first thing any knowledgeable GM truck owner does. I bought my 16’ new and had a Ranger ordered in the first week of ownership. I haven’t really noticed a marked decline in gas mileage. Fact is I got back from a 500 mile road trip and was rolling at 80 most the way. Arriving back home I noticed my mileage average as 26 mpg. (5.3 L) Don’t blame GM, their just responding to the governments stupid Cafe Standards. Kinda tuff when you sell more Trucks than Econo boxes.

First, thank you for your service! Second: I just bought a 2011 Z71 last Friday. I've wanted one for a long time. It has 106k on it, but it's in great shape. I'll be ordering one of these very soon. Boy, that 5.3 ain't not slouch! I'm not quite used to it yet. Me and the wifey were heading home from the Walmarts the other day and it had just started raining. We came out of the parking lot sideways. The thing rides like a Caddie, and other than the 4 to 8 cylinder switch lag, she gets up and GOES! It has some very new Cooper Discovery tires on it. It looks like it was very well cared for. No ticking, cold or hot, she's as quiet as a church mouse (that may change in the future, if you know what I mean.) Quiet going down the highway, other than the tires singing. We are super happy with it. We live out in the boonies a mile down a private dirt road (that is not maintained by the county) that's pretty rough, we truly needed a good 4x4.

Thanks for the in-depth explanation. Just test drove 2 Silverado's and thought they had either a trans problem or crapping power from slow speeds. After watching this I am now going to re roadtest one of them to see if it's because it's bouncing between V4 and V8. I would think GM would want you to have all power from a take off or slow roll but all this economy crap now, we'll see later today lol. Thanks again. If I buy a Silverado or Sierra this will be the first upgrade I do lol.

To test the truck and disable the AFM you can put it in M5 and see how it drives. That’s an option to disable without buying the range. I just like the ease of getting in the truck and going without having to tinker with buttons every time I drive the truck. Hope the test drive goes well!

IF YOU WANT A CHEAP, FAST, EASY, FIX PUT THE TRUCK IN "L" OR "M" FOR MANUAL. SHIFT IT TO L5 AND LEAVE IT THERE. THIS DISABLES V4 MODE. Obviously it's not permanent but it does help if you're going around town and don't want the v4. If you shift it into L6 it will go into V4 mode.

mine too on the hybrid I get 20MPG in the city with M4 v8 mode(6.0L) but with the Overdrive gear sun gear (EVT) I could get 25mpg in the city (using the pulse and glide technique ) (i.e the engine rpm is not married to the transmission) as it will coast much much longer then the M4 . M4 has engine braking which slows you down there by "wasting gas".. also the RPM is much higher M4 RPM at 40MPH is 1500 rpm V8 EVT2 overdrive at 40mph is 1,000 rpm V8 That means an increase of fuel efficacy of 50%

Same here..like the truck but HATE the afm. I plan on getting the disabler but not until my truck is out of warranty. On the highway the AFM doesn’t bother me all that much so I always put the truck in drive (D) but for any around town driving or slower highways where it’s traffic light the traffic light I just put the truck in L5. It still pushes low RPMs and keeps it in V8 mode. My fuel mileage hasn’t changed. The truck drives completely different in L5 or maybe on earlier years M5.

Just a heads up, this does not void your warranty. I bought mine in 2018 fully aware of my warranty. I want to enjoy driving my truck. If you want to trade your vehicle in, take the range AFM disabler out, and it cannot be seen by any of their computers. I recently went to a Chevy dealer thinking about buying a 2500hd and they took a thorough look at the truck and had no issues.

Jake, just some added info, as I have put a Range AFM disabler on my 2017 Silverado 5.3 V8. (1) in NC, my truck would not be ready for the state emissions inspection while running the Range. I had to remove it a few day before so it could go through cold start & other cycles to be ready to pass. (2) OnStar can NOT read you ECU to let you know if there's any issues with the truck & it shows up on my monthly report. No big deal for me, but just letting you know. BTW, I love the results of my Range AFM disabler.

I have a 2018 5.3 4x4 and I have not noticed an mpg increase. It's lifted, so there's that, and I'm running Pedal Commander in Sport mode most of the time. But it's not about that, it's like a lot of others are saying... It's about using all them cylinders. I paid for 8, I want to use all 8. And I agree about it being a fav truck. I don't want the newer ones with auto stop start and who knows what else. Only thing better would be the 6.2...

Should I delete the AFM/DOD? I just purchased a 2012 Silverado 1500 5.3 with 120K miles -- It is a very clean truck that I believe was well maintained. Would you suggest I get a RANGE Technologies disable plug in OB2? Will the fact that these 5.3 with AFM have higher pressure oil pump cause issues and perhaps create excessive oil burning if the Disable device is used? Also would you recommend installing an OIL Catch Can along with a Range OB2 device?

Yeah, its only momentary, but its enough to be unsafe. Thank for the tip.

I’ve had it disconnect on me while driving once or twice and I just wait til I come to a stop and the trucks naturally in v8 and push it back in fully. I don’t know the harm of this happening. I recommend plugging it in while the truck is off just for the sake of being overly cautious.

@jakeniteasy you clearly didn't do enough research nor talk to a tech guy nor talk to a Mechanic nor did you read the owners manual. All you have to do is put it in toe / Trailer mode to stop it from switching into v4 . You'd save yourself $200

Wow this is the first time I’ve ever heard about this.

Thank you for taking time out of your obviously busy day to inform me!

Apparently on Trailblazers you can unplug the brake booster sensor... it won't affect anything else, and it will throw your check engine light on, but it supposedly disables the AFM. Didn't work on my Sierra 5.3L... but Trailblazer owners have said it works.

So I bought a 2018 Tahoe. The first two months it was perfect. Then it had a communication error and it stalled. The dealership ran a program update. But every since I got it back I’m constantly feeling like a hesitation when accelerating. When I press the gas nothing happens. I have to wait a few seconds then it will speed up. I have to slam on the gas the truck will lurch forward and then go. Could this be related to afm?

Those chevys are nice but if you drove the ford or the Nissan you might like the power. The coyote And Nissan V8 leave the GM 5.3 in the dust. My girl had a lifter issue with her Tahoe last week. We got lucky as the lifter freed itself. I told her not to drive it again until the range came in. She used my Titan for a couple of days. She fell in love with the power. There is no such thing as an American truck anymore. GM 1/2 ton crew cabs are built in MEXICO.
