As mentioned in my other thread, my MDS lifters were shot right from the factory, but they're getting fixed now under warranty. This whole experience has really opened my eyes to how simple yet surprisingly complicated—and stressful on components—the MDS system actually is.
So here's my question: Short of a full MDS delete (which would void my warranty), would using a NoLimitz module to disable MDS make it less of a failure point going forward? I assume the MDS lifters would still physically move up and down like normal lifters, but they wouldn't collapse/lock into deactivation mode. Could this potentially 'save' the solenoids (by avoiding constant activation cycles) and relieve stress on the needle bearings in the lifter rollers (thus helping preserve them too)?
