They say it can still happen with the electronic disable but I electronically disabled it at 100k and I haven’t had any problems. It also burned noticeably less oil between oil changes when I did that.

Any opinion on the safest / most reliable AFM Disabler brand to use? I have a 2016 5.3 GMC with low miles only 27k. Obviously, not driven much still looks new.

Several on the market, Range Technology is one brand. I'm not going to spend the $$ to delete. So far no issues with the truck at all, and am just getting into this problem.

I suppose being out of warranty the ECU could be programmed to disable, but the OBD plugins seem simpler and effective.

Thanks in advance.
