I just ordered one. I despise that feature. And no switch used every start will last forever. I hate hitting it every time. An we have 3 cars and 2 trucks plus I drive semis for a living. I don't like a special step for just 1 vehicle.

You are really blowing this out of proportion.  I am sure they will refund you if you are really that upset about it.  I never had any issues with mine.  I already replaced mine and sent the "bad" uni

I mainly purchased one not because i just find it annoying to press it all the time but because other family members and close friends may borrow my truck.  Not all of them have these feature on there vehicle.  So rather than ask them to not forget to turn it off when they get in and start it.  This device turns it off automatically.  I mean the light on the switch does come on during start up but the quickly goes out and states on the DIC that auto Start Stop has been turn off just the same as if you used the switch.  I would also notice when it does work at times when it would start up at a stop light I would lose 2 miles less on total miles before tank goes empty.  I like the device in my opinion.

Does anyone know why the increase in price? I just read thru the thread and it was about 70$.

I paid $89 back in August, that was direct from Autostop.

I finally plugged my laptop into the truck tonight. 14 hours each of the last 2 days made me too tired the last 2 nights. The only thing that requested an MIL was the brake system module. A lost communication code. The freeze frame data from the time of the request all looked fine. It's either a fluke or I did something installing the auto stop eliminator. It's off now. I've been driving my old Duramax since that day. I will drive the 1500 tomorrow and make sure it stays off. But there were no ECM or CAN codes that would have been caused by installing that unit. The freeze frame didn't even show any requests from it during the time the MIL was requested.

I used:  AUTOVLOG

 

EVERY time you order something, Google for a coupon code.  I ordered from Griots and The Rag Company this morning and found coupon codes for both.  I wasn't able to find one for BakFlip MX4 cover, and all of the links that I've seen posted for "better prices" are all showing the factory direct price unless you call, however, Amazon had it for $120 less with Free 2nd day Prime shipping.

Anyone who bought the Autostop (AFM)disabler you realize it just controls the auto stop system? You truck still has the the DFM fuel management system the eliminates cylinders when less power is needed which can cause other issues . Ranger has a product that handles both and it plugs into the main plug underneath the dash . Your truck runs on all cylinders and doesn’t shut off at stops. It cost $149 when I got it in 2020. Hope this helps 81F97AAC-A8EB-4D1B-9452-2090B860EC6F.thumb.png.7465b012b5c52739e4d22b46de4a1c30.png

Sadly, isn't compatible with the refreshed 2022 models yet. Wonder what the differences are? Even powered running boards and some bed mats claim to not be compatible.

It's not even compatible with a 21 with the 10spd. Would have bought it a while ago if so. Two birds, one stone.

The Range also wasn't compatible with my '20 with the 8 speed. It caused surging between 30-50 mph when constant on the throttle. Their techs couldn't explain or solve, so I guess I was a unique case to them. Went with the Eliminator that plugs in behind the center console switch and it has been flawless.

      Breaking News!    I'm going to tell you that I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I told  you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I'm about to tell you on the other side of the break.  Then we're going to break. Then I'm not going to tell you what I told you I was going to tell you.  But I'll tell you something else that is Breaking News just coming to the desk that everyone reported on yesterday.  Then I'll tease a human interest telling I'll get to on the other side of a larger break. Then I'll tell you one item in 20 seconds and go back to an even longer break. Longest break of the night.  Then I'll tell you a fluff piece that takes 10 seconds and sign off into a three minute break while you wait for the next 30 minutes of rinse and repeat on the local news.    In al you'll get about 12 minutes of something, 5 minutes of which is worth hearing in a 30 minute show and 18 minutes of advertising at a sound level twice as loud as the news.    Of course you can switch to cable news and hear 12 different people tell the same four stories in much the same format as the Network News for 20 hours of which the majority will be advertising.  And four hours of late night Specials about things you wonder why you stayed up to listen to. Half of which will be repeats.....   OR you can go for a drive

      Audio Dampening and quiet

      By Afennell19 · Posted

      Did you ever figure this out? My 2022 Trail Boss, and now my 2026 LT did this from time to time.  I believe it was more connected to Android Auto and my phone being the cause. Maybe try going for a drive, sans cell phone.... and see if it happens?

      2026 Sierra 1500 Denali - Sound upgrade?

      By Afennell19 · Posted

      I have a 2026 Silverado LT, the non bose as well.  Upgrading the door speakers is pretty straightforward. You could honestly go to walmart, or Auto Zone/ O Reilly and get a set of 6x9s for the front, and 6.5s for the rear. You do also have to get some adapters for each, but they are like $10 a pair on Amazon. Then some plug and play harnesses that are about $10 a pair on Amazon as well.  And I would also suggest a 10 pack of the Amazon Basics sound deadening. Slap that all around the speakers and on the open metal of the inside of the door. And your golden.   I am currently doing this with my Silverado. Although I am having a bit of trouble because I am snooby I guess and bought some Alpine S2 S69c's which are 2 way components and I am having to wire from the door up to the dash....  Having never installed speakers before, its taking me just a bit to get everything correct. But if you dont buy expensive component speakers, and just some $40-$50 door speakers. You will DRASTICALLY improve the sound over these stock paper cone junk speakers. I thought my Silverado had an issue with the radio/ sound for a while.  Come to find out.  The stock speakers are just THAT SH*TTY   I cannot wait to have some decent sound in the truck   What did you end up doing?

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By newdude · Posted

      Its all automatic based on yaw sensor data.  If enough incline is detected, it engages.   My recommendation though would be to disengage it before driving off and not let it auto disengage by touching the gas pedal.  The HD trucks use the same setup as prior years, the drum in hat park brake.  But now with an electric actuator.  If you drive off repeatedly over time, it can torque the park brake shoes and can also prematurely wear them out.           Electric console shift will set the park brake on flat ground too.  Pretty sure they've got it programmed to activate every time.
