[QUOTE="YFCvii, post: 265903, member: 3252"] I have not done any afm aftermarket delete on any of my C7s nor my 6.2 Sierra. That resolve would be speculative on something GM is tight-lipped about. I did do the A8 Mobil 1 transmission fluid exchange last summer on both (thanks to a friend who helped me with that). That turned out real well on the shifts now. The A10 does not have anything similar to the A8 shifting anomaly. GM has acknowledged nothing. I lost my 2015 model year 5.3 and was never given any details. After towing it from a boat launch, When I saw my engine dismantled to the block in the service bay in Wetaskiwin with parts lying all over counters and the floor, I chose the route to not keep my truck. It was in its last 6 months of powertrain warranty and therefore nothing was being disclosed to me - only appeared that nobody knew what was going on. There was a strike at the time and parts were up to 8weeks to source. The dealership that negotiated with me for a replacement truck, had the 5.3 truck come back for another complete top end engine rebuild within a month of reselling it. GM admitted to nothing … I moved along until I saw this recent class action article. My best guess is that a letter will come out to original owners of vehicles equipped with the engines and the fuel management option … should GM have to settle the class action. History will likely be an extension of warranty due to failure of something specific. All of which has to be determined … all I can say is that my event smells rather similar to the wording of the lawsuit for what I believe I experienced. I am not regretting moving along to my 2019 6.2 Sierra … but waiting for how it plays out for my 3 vehicles. [/QUOTE]
