I ordered this and misunderstood what it truly was. It appears that it will work as it should. It seems easy to use at it is plug and play as long as you know where that port is in your car.

Hi, thanks for the honest feedback! We really appreciate you sharing your initial confusion — it actually helps other buyers understand exactly what to expect. You're right that it's plug-and-play once you locate the OBD port (usually under the driver's side dashboard). Glad to hear it's working as it should now! If you have any questions as you continue using it, feel free to reach out. Safe driving!

AFM disabler

I installed this on my 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali truck with a 6.2 engine. This is literally plug and play. It works perfectly as described and allows your engine to run correctly without dropping cylinders or shutting off at stoplights. It allows you to use your engine as it was built, and gets you up to speed quickly by disabling the function that tries to save gas by shutting off cylinders. The size of it is perfect and tight fitting in the OBD2 port, it��s durable as well as out of the way when driving. I personally leave it plugged in and have not seen any drain on battery life.

It's totally worth the price.

It truly lives up to its reputation for usability and ease of installation. I noticed the difference from the very first time I drove it; there was no need to switch back and forth. The price is very reasonable, and I'm grateful to the seller for offering such an excellent product. In short, this experience far exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend buying it!

Seems to work

Just installed today and it seems to be working properly. Of course I don't have any details as to whether it adds or subtracts from gas mileage and by how much. My main objective was to hopefully allow the engine to last longer only time will tell.

Simple plug-and-play AFM disabler

This worked exactly as expected. Plugged it in and it immediately prevented the engine from going into Active Fuel Management (V4 mode).Installation couldn��t be easier��just plug it into the OBD-II port and you��re done. No setup or configuration needed.I haven��t noticed a significant difference in how the vehicle feels while driving, but it does stay in full V8 mode now instead of switching back and forth.Overall, it��s a simple, effective solution if you��re looking to disable AFM without any permanent modifications.

Installs/removes in seconds and improved both the drivability and fuel mileage of the truck.

Got this for a 2017 chevrolet silverado that ��shutters�� when you see the dash display go from 8 cylinders to 4 at highway speeds. Unit installs/removes in seconds and even though I have only used it a short time it seems to have eliminated the shuttering problem. Very limited instructions printed on the box with no mention of what the red and green lights mean, which would be nice. It could be me but, it also seems to have improved the shifting of the transmission and actually improved my fuel mileage. Overall a very cost effective solution to prolonging the life of these engines which are notorious for failing due to the active fuel management system.

My Gen 6 Camaro SS just passed 100k. It's time to try to prevent AFM issues before they start.

I have a Generation 6 Camaro SS with a 6.2L engine. The car has been relatively trouble-free and just hit 100,000 miles. However, I am aware of the issues with the AFM system, and as the mileage adds up, I am getting more worried. I decided my strategy was going to be to run the car about 90% of the time with AFM disabled, but enable it at regular intervals so that varnish doesn't build up and cause issues. I'll probably just pull the dongle out for the last day or two of each month. I have been driving around with this dongle installed for a week now. No check engine lights or other issues. Others have reported rather dramatic increases in gas mileage, probably mostly attributable to more aggressive driving while testing. I'm only seeing about a .5 mpg loss in mixed residential driving, and the AFM is definitely disabled. So far so good. We will put a few thousand miles on it and report back if there are any issues that pop up.

Transform Your GM Ride with This Essential AFM Disabler!

I recently installed the ROPODE AFM Disabler on my 2018 Chevy Silverado with the 5.3L engine, and I couldn��t be more pleased with the performance boost it has provided. The build quality is impressive; the unit feels robust and well-engineered, and the plug-and-play installation was straightforward, taking less than 15 minutes without any special tools or modifications needed.Since using the disabler, I've noticed a significant improvement in throttle response and overall power delivery, eliminating the annoying AFM system that would kick in during light acceleration. The device seamlessly integrates with my vehicle's electronics, and I appreciate that it maintains a factory-like appearance, ensuring no clutter in my engine bay while enhancing my driving experience dramatically.
