Dude, that's weird that your 6.2L only goes into V4 mode at low speeds! Most of the time, AFM is supposed to kick in when you're just cruising on the highway, not so much at idle. Yeah, GM has had some oil problems with these engines, so it's possible they tweaked the AFM to try and fix it, but it sounds like it's messing with your gas mileage. You're not alone, a lot of people complain about AFM, and plenty just get it bypassed.
