Here's a thread about the issue.

But I wouldn't let this stop you from getting an L99 A6.
Thanks man. I was hoping by now GM(and Mopar) would realize that the whole fuel saver stuff like DoD and MDS doesn't need to be used in Muscle Car applications. I can understand say a chrysler 300 with the HEMI or a Silverado with the 5.3 using DoD/AFM/MDS but not a Muscle Car. Leave the Fuel Saver stuff to the vehicles like mini vans or something. I believe Muscle Cars(Camaro, Mustang, and Challenger) should run on all 8 Cylinders. It's a V8 for a reason!

That's my rant anyway, and those of you who enjoy using the DoD/AFM to get a few extra MPG's then that's great. I'm not trying to say anything bad about it, but you think after all the lifter issues GM would just cut it out ya know.

Anyone else have any input, all is welcome.
