I want to clarify that when I say I want a quicker shift the ONLY reason I like the quicker shifts is that I believe the faster the shift the less wear and tear on transmission parts. Sure with a loud muffler it sounds [email protected]@l but my reasoning is to lenghten the life of the transmission. Am I correct in my assumption?

I received the same message today, with a link to where I could purchase a build sheet for $50 -
Discovered! Features you may not have known about...

Started fine with key... Only thing I know is that I had twice tried to remote start and it didn't work and when I finally reset the 9% oil message at startup in the DIC it has worked since. My Car Fax showed oil change at the selling dealership and it looked clean so I am assuming the tech didn't reset the reminder. It must trigger a reminder at 10% and I think that is why my remote start didn't work... I am assuming this but haven't seen anyone verify that is what was happening. -
I tried this out yesterday... Pulled into "L" and went up to 5th gear and in stayed in V8 mode. Once I went to 6th it would go into V4 mode. Drove 50 miles and it seemed to stay in V8 mode as long as I stayed in #5 gear. I have the 6 speed trans, so give it a try and let me know if yours does the same.

As stated above sometime when I pull from a stop it feels as if I am on the edge of the road with them little rumble strips. Doesn't last long, before I hit 10 mph its gone and only does it every now and then. Had trans flush last month at GM dealer. Was told there wasn't anything noticeable... ALSO noticed if I pull down into "L" and select gear #5 the engine stays in V8 mode... Didn't know that. Truck has 105K and I think shocks are worn but other than that it runs straight and no other issues that I have noticed. I am hoping its not trans or converter issue. Ideas?

Wow, can't believe I left that out... yes to the in channel. The truck had some tape on and I am removing them to install WT in channel. I have read a couple post about the rears falling off and did apply tape and installed the clips required for the rear as I had a pair that was given to me. I just received the front pair today and am thinking of adding the tape. You said you have installed them and not had an issue?

Forgot to reply... thanks for the info. It does not actually state a class but I can deduct from the weight it is a class 4 hitch, with 12K tow max weight. -
Saturday I was installing a dash cam in my truck. I pulled the fuse for the radio as was hoping to use it as I thought it would power on and off the dash cam for me... well I was wrong. But the strange thing is the time and date had to be reset but my radio presets were still there. Now come the even stranger part... I went to use Android Auto the very next day as we were invited up to my brother-in-laws cottage and with both my Galaxy S10 and my wife's S10 were got a red page error on the phones with a statement about something needed updated. I ended up listening to my wifes verbal direction as she used Google maps on her phone to get there. NOW several hours later on our way home, I plugged in my phone for the heck of it and Android Auto started working again and had our home location and some prior address's still available, (I think their are on the phone not in the trucks memory). I do not have the wifi active on the truck and it was parked under a steel carport for most of the day. I tried it again today and it is still working... Strange things do happen. I have no idea what happened but I am glad as we have been using this app a lot lately.

Searching for power on with key
No Tyme replied to No Tyme's topic in 2014-2018 Silverado & Sierra Troubleshooting
Thank you, yes I did see this. I tapped the power to that auxiliary power outlet and ran a line up to the dash cam. Couldn't believe the trouble I had. While I was in there I found a cabin filter that look horrible and made a trip for a new one. Half my day was spent on this install which included a rear cam that plugs into my B4K dash cam. Thanks for the info.
