Mine worked fine until I got an update also. After that sometimes it would not connect and Id have to turn CarPlay off and then back on for it to try to connect again. I think I have had two additional updates since this started and it has gotten better but still not perfect.

Sounds about right. I miss the days of mechanics lol.

Sorry to hear replacing the starter didn’t fix anything. My truck has been annoying with a few issues too. Some of them I would have thought to be an easy fix and they can’t seem to figure out.

If it's something they cannot figure out they can contact GM. They have a case open for noise in the suspension and my whistling drivers mirror they cant figure out how to fix.

Mine has no such noise when it starts up first thing in the morning.

The people say they are not needed generally say that because they say its mostly not oil the can has in it. Reading various threads, you'll see people say that the can heats and cools causing condensation. They say that even though there is some oil in the liquid you pour out, it's not enough to amount to anything. I used to run cans on my engines and I would pour out about a half a quarts worth of liquid during the OIC. However, I did not loose half a quart of oil during the same time frame. With that in mind, I stopped using them and said screw it. Right or wrong, that is the way I went. Even if there is only a small amount, a can will help keep it out of the engine. Its not going to hurt anything to run it unless you forget to dump it. Will it make a difference long term, who knows.

Next time I start mine up, Ill listen but I dont think I have ever heard that noise before.

I miss the old school stuff. I have Xpel tent on every window in the truck. Sadly, FL heat said it didnt care. Granted, the system will still cool down the cab eventually. But man does it take a min. When you first get in you feel like youre the turkey on thanksgiving.

The dealership told me they have no idea. They also stated that the compressor has had six different part numbers too. Seems they may have issues making one that works. The loaner truck I had worked just as bad. The first 1-2 min was pure hot air before it even attempted to start cooling. After that, it didnt react that way the rest of the day.

Yep mine is on backorder also.

100% agree, there are a lot of variables. I definitely do not drive I’ve like a grandpa but also don’t drive like I stole it. Truck is currently in the shop so I’ll have to get weight later. The price for driving it doesn’t bother me. My precious was a 6.2l so the cost between the two is a wash.

My 26 6.6L Gas only gets about 11.2 around town. Envy you guys getting over 12 LOL. I assume its because its a TB and has 34" tires vs 33".

I miss the old R12 stuff. The AC in my 79 Camaro was amazing compared to most newer vehicles I have owned. It would also freeze the grass when you had a little left in the can lol.

Mine is in the shop for the AC now. While it did get cold after a bit, it would take a while to even start to cool the air at all. Turns out the compressor was bad and cycling.

Yes they have sequential lights. They also are puddle lights when the door is opened. Boost Auto Lumastep M2 are the brand.
