Well, after you get GM to fix the problem, I would recommend dumping the AFM thing altogether. I basically disabled the AFM at 240 odometer miles on my 2013 Silverado with 5.3L in it, because I was aware of the oil consumption issues going on. There is a large group of owners that have had positive experiences by deleting the AFM function in regards to oil consumption issues and other internal problems.
Only thing that bothers me, is that the cost of the R&D to develop this AFM stuff gets tacked onto the price of vehicle and most of us really don't want it anyway. My perception is that I paid for 8 cylinders, and I do not want any of them taking union sponsored breaks while I am operating the pickup. They all have to contribute to the task at hand. It is a team effort, and all 8 cylinders have to do their part.
Now we'll just have to see if deleting the AFM, installing a PCV oil catch can, and using Schaeffer 9003D 5w30 full synthetic mitigates any future problems.
