Anyone having this problem. It is like a rattle and you can hear a noise as it changes to the V8 mode from the V4 mode.
Eric, this only works on the manual cars. The Automatic goes into V4 mode whenever it's under light load, regards of mode settings.My car never changes from V8 to V4 mode because I never use Eco.. You can get an aftermarket gizmo if you like or just never turn the dial to Eco. Problem solved. JMO
Ouch. I did not know this. That's sorta weird actually. Surely GM engineers could have run the V4 switch over through the Eco mode. So what does Eco mode do when you turn the knob to Eco? Or do you even have an Eco control setting in an auto?Eric, this only works on the manual cars. The Automatic goes into V4 mode whenever it's under light load, regards of mode settings.
do u really think gm will make any reasonable attempt to solve this problemRange Technologies will no longer ship to Canada.
I had to use another supplier on Amazon to get my 2nd one.
Jerry would like to have this solved by GM.
So places the problem could be are torque tube, torque converter, transmission....and who knows what else.
I guess the Range device is the answer unless I keep the car in manual mode and shift gears. Anyone know if the dealer (GM) can disable this feature through the ECM??
there is a place in Canada that sells themGM will not disable it for you.
Range device will need to be bought through a 3rd party, be careful with Amazon vendors they can be selling older versions.
I did not say you could not get them in Canada, just Range does not sell directly to Canadian consumers any longer.there is a place in Canada that sells them
will not post as they are not a sponsor
just for the record I did not contradict youI did not say you could not get them in Canada, just Range does not sell directly to Canadian consumers any longer.
I bought mine in Canada as well.
no problems at allJust an update. Talked to the dealer yesterday and the told me they can not disable the V4 to V8 option and they also directed me to the aftermarket Range unit. Will look into it. Any problems with this unit once you plug it into the car??
