'06 SS DoD/AFM problem
Hi folks, about 3 weeks ago I bought a mint '06 SS with the 5.3 LS4 and 87k miles. The only mod so far is Hooker Aero Chamber mufflers. Since day one the engine has made a noticeable clicking sound when in 4 cylinder mode (only at low speed...can't hear it on the freeway). Then today on the freeway I noticed a large puff of blue smoke coming out of the exhaust when the engine switches from 4 cyl to 8 cyl mode. This only happens when on the gas a little, not while coasting. The blue smoke goes away after a second or two. Are the noise and smoke related and what exactly is the problem here? I'd like some input before I take it back to the dealer. :)
