@@juancamarena6810 interesting, I don’t have that squeak on my 5.3. Is it coming from the engine or from the module?

@ the noise comes from the engine. I’ve seen others comment that it has to do with the zero cylinder activation. Was hoping the range module would eliminate that. Maybe it’s just on the 6.2s

@@AdrianGtz Nitto Ridge Grappler 265/50/R20. I love the way they look on it, and they handle pretty good in dirt, rock, and snow.

@@MatthewFlint-v3p you may want to contact Range Technologies directly to confirm, but I don’t believe this module draws any power whatsoever.

@ I appreciate the response, will do. Thanks

What did you find out? I'm in the same situation​@@MatthewFlint-v3p

@TheCarCrazyGuy I have my doubts as well, but am subjecting this truck to this test specifically to see if the module will help prolong the lifters or not. I’ll be posting updates every 25K miles (or until I experience a failure), so we’ll see…

@@infirmux yeah, it’s a US thing to prevent fraud by restricting international transactions; however, getting less prevalent now with tap/chip technology and with card issuers coming up with more ingenious analytics to spot fraud.

I agree!

You’re welcome. Yes, this keeps all cylinders firing by disabling DFM but it doesn’t disable “0 cylinder mode” whereby fuel delivery shuts off when coasting at low speeds (which I don’t experience very often). I’ve now had the truck for 6K miles-first 3K without and last 3K with the module. Haven’t really noticed any difference in fuel consumption (good or bad), but it could be because I babied the engine during break in period and have been running it much harder the last 3K especially after installing a proper exhaust. So, theoretically if I drove it the same before and after I might get better mileage with the module but can’t say for sure.

@@Thatairlinepilotguy AFE 0FG-I spent a lot of time researching catback exhaust sounds before buying this one and felt it produced the best sound available.

@ great to hear! Exactly what I’m getting ready to put on my ‘24 6.2 trailboss. Installing the range DFM tomorrow when the unit arrives. Your video helped a lot, thanks!

@ I should have made a video about the exhaust mod. Install itself wasn’t so difficult, but removing the stock pipe wasn’t as easy as you’d think. 6.2 may be different, but the 5.3 pipe is very long with several bends that had to snake out the rear. American Truck produced a video that makes it look simple, but it is not. I eventually gave up and cut the pipe out.

@ good to know. A buddy of mine owns a body shop, so we’ll throw it up on the lift and install at his place. Shouldn’t be too hateful for us.

@@robbsgarage "AWE 0FG" out of Pennsylvania...

Sorry you had to tow, but happy to hear you fixed it! Be sure to subscribe for more RR info in the future.

@@smartassandy sorry to hear, but so happy to know this trick worked for you!

@@edgardohernandez7248 sorry but I haven’t had to put this on a 2 post lift yet so I don’t have any advice to share.

You’re welcome!

@@davidl7672 fantastic! Glad my bad experience can help so many others.

@@Everything-k3y here’s what Range told me: “The engine will still enter 0-cylinder mode while coasting at slower speeds. Contrary to what many think, this is not a DFM function. It’s actually the engine shutting off fueling, so the cylinders don’t actually fire. It’s not the DFM system turning on and collapsing lifters to prevent the combustion cycle.”

Correct, that’s exactly what they told me, zero cylinder coasting does not use the Dfm program but it does use the collapsible lifters to keep the valves closed in zero cylinder mode.

Nice, thanks for the tip!

@@jongwoo do it!

@@robbsgarage checking measurements on the bed for my splitter and height for my garage at work. lol

Did you hear how good the exhaust sounded at Buttonwillow? Factory exhaust is too quiet, now it roars!

@@robbsgarage I don't remember it... you should have rev-ed it when you drive by

@@chrism1157 I’m so jealous! You bought at the right time.

The 2021 and 2022 models had a run during the hear of the infamous "chip shortage" where some of the V8s didn't have a functioning AFM or DFM system. So yea...no DFM issues. But not so fast...the DFM would not function because of electronic/tech reasons. But unfortunately those miserable AFM or DFM lifters are still in the engine. So while they don't function as designed, they are still present. Perhaps the lifters not constantly collapsing, reactivating, etc. will help prolong the life of these crummy lifters............................or maybe not. Time will tell but one thing for sure, you folks get a much better quality driving experience and for "free!"

How were you able to not get AFM?

Amen brother, these auto manufactures and the EPA are killing the industry. I wouldn’t have bought a new truck if I didn’t need one. Hope to keep this one forever because I can only imagine how much worse it’s going to be 10 years from now. I got this DFM Disabler to help make this motor last as long as possible!

I have a 2013 Sub LTZ 5.3 with 187k. Had the Range product since 40k miles and never had any issues. Motor runs like a champ giving to my son. Just bought a 24 Sub HC with a 6.2 and will put this on when it arrives.

@@markfrench3665 great to hear you’ve had good experience with these things. I’m hoping this module prolongs the motor life. So far so good, and I’ll keep posting updates along the way.

why not?

its called RPM. higher rpm - more oil pressure. This happens even with v8's from the 60's era. Normal operation

@@ThePlotts I thought the same at first, but once I installed it I actually prefer this better-only takes 10 minutes and doesn’t clog up the OBD plug area.

why? the OBD port one drains the battery I hear. This newer one does not drain the battery.

With the 2022.5 refresh that extends to the 2025 MY, GM changed some things electrically so they had to completely redesign and re-engineer as their product could no longer do its job through the OBD port...

@@JP-ec8fe nope! This thing disables it at all times including that stupid auto start!

@@IrvingNolasco great!!!

Haha, yeah new truck in the garage bro! Just installed my Christmas present on it-“Zero F**** Given” catback exhaust.

You’re welcome, hope it helped!

Thanks! Planning on making that video with my next oil change. Just finished replacing the motor mounts today so about to publish that video which is promised to be the most comprehensive on the subject.

@@robbsgarage looking forward to that.🙂

Yes, it was ridiculous. Wish I could have cut one out from a donor car but body shop said it wouldn’t have maintained structural integrity. I don’t know… but, at least the finished product turned out excellent.

@@williammcneal3471 thank you, hope it helped. It’s a Thule system. Can’t remember the actual model number, but it’s designed for use with most Thule cargo boxes.

Glad it helped!

I’d estimate 1-2 hours per side depending on your level of experience. Let me know after doing it if you found the video to be of any help.

Yesss!!! Congrats.

Done! Great idea, thanks for sharing.

​@@robbsgaragethanks! I have saved it so I will get notifications when new videos are added. Also subbed. 😀

@@joe_ferreirathank you!!!

Any hardware store will sell them. If you’re located in the US, you can buy them individually at Ace or True Value; whereas Lowes and Home Depot will likely make you buy a boxful.
