I am currently trying to disable the afm on my 2011 Sierra 1500 using the flashpaq f5 but the device keeps telling me "vehicle calibration files not stock." Inside the device's vehicle information it says that my truck is currently stock. I've tried several times to install the tune but I keep getting the same message. I have an aftermarket stereo installed but I pulled the fuses before attempting to use the device. Behind my stereo I also have the interfaces for my door chimes and steering wheel controls. Is it possible that those aftermarket interfaces are causing this issue because I dont really know what else to do.

Is this a new or used programmer?

If new I would call Superchips. You can hook it up to a PC and update if needed.

Yes it is new. I updated prior to using but still nothing. Superchips customer service isnt available on the weekends so I was just seeing if anyone on here had any insight. Thanks.

I just went through this myself. I sent an email, and they were able to update it to where it would accept my stock tune. Now the problem I’m having with it is that it doesn’t work well with the airaid intake tube.. I was told by superchips I would have to replace stock air intake to eliminate the studder and hesitation!!!

      The whole story is false. The screw is there as a temporary fix to allow the pump to even turn on. When the nozzle is returned the pump shuts off.. At this point people are just being punked   https://youtu.be/1DtlaEuHXAA?si=06mrRmw9HLUwdeRk   https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1CyRZdsaSc/ https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1DxV1Hyrqi/       SNOPES: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/19HPYUnRik/

      I love my truck but

      Not exactly what I was hoping for, but I do like it. I wonder if they'll bring back Smokey Quartz Metallic? 🤔 https://gmauthority.com/blog/2026/06/here-is-the-all-new-2027-gmc-sierra-1500/

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Whoever greenlighted the work truck matte black front bumpers on every trim but the AT4X should be fired!  I was hoping that was an AI mistake, but just realized they were on every model of the 2027 Silverado too.     Some parts of the interior do look premium, but the Denali Ultimate dashboard looks like an afterthought.  At least they appear to have lost the microfiber the high end Silverado models showed, but the '27 High Country dash looks better than the Denali.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      New member here. I am researching a read-first event-recorder concept for late-model GM V8 trucks. This is not a sales post. There is no product link, price, preorder, or mailing list. I am trying to determine whether the underlying problem is real before building anything.   Has your truck ever had a brief problem such as: - rough running or a momentary misfire - an oil-pressure warning or unusual pressure event - reduced power or a brief stall - a U-code or lost-communication problem - a symptom that disappeared before the dealer or independent shop could reproduce it   If so, I would appreciate the following details: - year, model, engine, and mileage - what happened and under what conditions - whether a DTC and useful freeze-frame data were stored - whether the shop was able to reproduce it - what the eventual confirmed repair was, if known - what additional information would have helped the diagnosis   The concept being evaluated is a removable leave-in recorder that continuously retains a rolling window from before and after an event. It would not tune, reflash, clear codes, or change the vehicle calibration.   I am also not claiming that it could predict lifter failure or see every internal ECM variable.   The real question is whether continuous event history would add enough useful evidence beyond freeze frame, GDS2, and existing scan tools — or whether it would simply be another unnecessary gadget.   For owners and technicians, which problem would make something like this genuinely useful: 1. intermittent misfire or AFM/DFM-related behavior 2. oil-pressure events 3. lost communication or electrical faults 4. none of the above Please be blunt. Negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.
