What do you lose on the MPG side? 1-2?

I would not give up the power train warranty in my vehicle just to turn off AFM. I don't notice the AFM when it kicks in and if it saves me gas then I'm all for it. I also don't understand how people can average over 20 MPG in these cars unless you're driving it like my grandmother. I consistently average around 16 for combined MPG and I'm not getting on it. Different strokes I guess.

I just drive around town using the paddle shifters. I never feel AFM that way.

What "HDDAN" is calling noise immunity, is gradual but PERMENANT Hearing Loss, due to long time and repeated exposure to loud noises. Trust Me! I know, I didn't protect my ears when I was younger, and now I have to wear two Hearing Aids and still need captioning on TV. As for the AFM I can't hear when it kicks in

I had mine tuned at Jannetty's, with 150 miles on the car, definitely worth it
