    DFM disabler released

    Not that I've noticed :shrug:

    DFM disabler released

    Here you go, found something useful. Here's Carbyte actually explaining it. If you don't hit 40, DFM does it's thing. If you do hit 40 they claim it's completely disabled for that drive cycle. Generally speaking that's probably fine, just don't get fooled into thinking the DFM is completely...

    That's when I notice it the most.

    DFM disabler released

    No clue, looks like you asked the guy who posted it so hopefully he can confirm. Was funny because I saw somebody going with the carbyte because the range still deactivates when slowing down. Sound like the carbyte isn't 100% either LOL

    DFM disabler released

    I came across this unit when searching and couldn’t imagine that it actually worked. Not saying it doesn’t, pretty wild if it’s advanced enough to cover all the cars in the list they show plus these global b’s. One weird thing from a review on Amazon. “One thing to note and not mentioned on...

    Need GM part#s for Black rear tailgate applique & rear bumper fascia

    9 months later and this is the P/N I need for the bumper trim after scratching my head on black ice vs nightrider (where do they come up with these names). Thanks @kerlyb !

    DFM disabler released

    Range said early beta units were drawing the battery down a bit when sitting over time. I never had an issue (daily driver) but they sent a revised version. Believe that was fixed before they released them for purchase. As for the CEL being bypassed, can’t say for sure, but I can’t imagine...

    Lifted/Leveled 2021 - Postem Up

    Tough to say, certainly possible. Could also be a frame extension because the flap needed support there from, well, flapping around Need a GM engineer to chime in.

    Lifted/Leveled 2021 - Postem Up

    No gm suv I’m aware of that comes with a factory 2” lift. Many confuse the Silverado trail boss and sierra at4, that do come with it, with the SUV’s. Rough country being one of them, and sounds like your salesman too.

    RA007 is the only one that will work on the 21-up gm suv’s

    Lifted/Leveled 2021 - Postem Up

    Seems most kits put the z71 slightly nose high. I agree on being level from factory. Rough country is 2” front 1” rear. The 3.5” rough country also lifts the front higher. And the readylift 3”, that I have, does 3” front 2” rear. With all of these kits the other trims look level, just seems to...

    DFM disabler released

    Sorry, yes 2022 z71 5.3 The corsa had no impact on the drivability. It’s well designed and eliminates the flapper, but no drone from DFM. Just can hear the cylinders kick back during decel at 14 mph, which again doesn’t bother me. I’ve 6.2 owners with the same complaints as the TSB defines that...

    DFM disabler released

    Initially I thought I lost half an mpg but now I'm at, actually slightly better, mpg than pre eliminator. I'm at 15 MPG average (lifted, heavier wheels and tires, summer fuel, etc). With that comes a billion variables as does the DFM issues. I noticed it before I started mod'ing, but agree, some...

    DFM disabler released

    I thought about that when I had the AFM disabled with a tune on my ‘17 5.3, the system doesn’t get “exercised.” I did switch back to stock for dealer visits. The DFM Disabler, to some folks disappointment, allows the DFM to function during deceleration on some rigs, including mine. So it’s...

    May not drop cylinders when you’re towing depending on weight, grade, speed, etc, but it’s not disabled in tow mode for this gen.

    It engages in tow mode, L9 is the only way to disable in stock form.

    DFM disabler released

    L9 disables DFM, it’s in a service bulletin for troubleshooting and I can tell you it does. I don’t like the way it drives in L9 though, and losing 10th gear isn’t ideal either. Right, but I’m saying there’s no vibration or lugging when the v6 drops cylinders. I don’t think the system belongs...

    DFM disabler released

    L9 is the only way to disable. I didn’t feel it with mine until about 5000 miles in. I hated AFM and thought wow the DFM is way better, and then I started feeling the lugging, vibration, etc just as bad if not worse than AFM. Not a fan. With that said, wife’s blazer with the v6 drops cylinders...

    DFM disabler released

    My beef with DFM is cruising and slight throttle tip in, that's when I notice the lugging/shuddering/vibration. The range disabler stops all that. Without the disabler, when coasting down to a stop or braking, the DFM is enabled and with a louder exhaust you'll hear the DFM then disable at 14...

    That applies to the pick ups, they changed mid 2022. For SUV’s it’s 21-up 5.3 or 6.2

    DFM disabler released

    I’m a beta tester, 100% worth it if you’re like me and the DFM causes noticeable lugging/vibration when maintaining speed or slight throttle tip in. I absolutely hate driveability with AFM/DFM on the v8’s. Wifes AFM on her v6 blazer on the other hand, don’t even notice it. Install was very...

    License Plate Lamp Replacement

    I'm finding no info on this, looks like the whole assembly has to be replaced!? I know incandescent bulbs have a short warranty, but since (I think) these are LED's maybe covered under bumper to bumper. I'll get ahold of the dealer, but anyone else out there have one or both stop working?

    Cylinder deactivation for the 2021-2023's?

    I hope that continues for you, mine didn’t start lugging until I got some miles on it and the DFM seemed to be programmed to get more aggressive after break in.
