GM AFM / DoD & VVT Disable – PCM Mail-In Service (2006–2018)
⚠️ READ FIRST – IMPORTANT
This is a tuning-only, mail-in PCM service.
No mechanical work or hardware is included.
This service is intended ONLY for vehicles that already have the required mechanical changes completed where applicable (camshaft swaps, AFM/DOD deletes, VVT lockouts, etc.).
It does NOT repair:
- Failed lifters
- Worn camshafts
- Damaged phasers
- Existing mechanical engine damage
If you are unsure which option you need, contact us before ordering.
✅ What This Service Does
This service permanently disables selected engine management systems in the PCM calibration to support modified or failure-prone engine setups.
Depending on the option selected, this service can disable:
- Active Fuel Management (AFM) / Displacement on Demand (DoD)
- Variable Valve Timing (VVT)
- All related diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs)
- Associated check engine lights
The calibration is adjusted to allow proper operation without these systems active, assuming the engine is mechanically sound.
