    Not all 5.3's have it from 07. You will know if you have it. From my experience all flex fuel models have it.

    Kevin is there a character in the VIN that designates whether you have it or not? My wife has an '08 Suburban and she doesn't have an icon on the dash, but I can change the dash display where it shows me when the engine cuts to 4 cylinders.

    Oh I know wifey's Suburban has it (unfortunately), I was just thinking if these knuckleheads could look at the VIN to tell if they did or not. Might make it a little easier. Just a thought.

    Looks like you need to schedule an appt with Kevin.

    I THINK if the 8th digit is a '3' then you have it. I'm still looking into it though.

    Yeah Luvin, she sure does. I quit telling her what she should or should not do with her vehicle a while back. I gotta watch that too. Cause she'd rather take it to a dealership to trade it in before she took it to a mechanic.

    That's like her breaking point. If it needs to go to the shop, it's time to replace it.

    All 2007 and newer are AFM. I just called Love Chevrolet. They had to go to AFM to meet the new strict EPA guidelines.

    what dash display do you change it to to see when it cuts to 4 cylinders?

    See the 4 buttons just to the left of the center a/c vents? It's one of those. Can't remember exactly cause I don't drive it every day. You hit one them jokers to toggle through the different display options. It shows in the display at the bottom of the speedometer.
