Ok so the dealer called and the Vette tech said there was over 30 codes but said most were probably due to the battery being killed. They also did a trans flash update and said it was shifting much better. I can't pick it up until the morning so I'll see what flash they are talking about.

There have been numerous threads over the past 2 years regarding the AFM disabler plug in. Power consumption was one; odd engine behavior was another. I looked into this when i got my '14 just about 2 years ago. Finally i decided not to buy it, too risky. instead i use manual mode and enjoy controlling the shift points just like i did with a standard. Well maybe not quite as enjoyable as a standard, but close, and it avoids AFM.
