Integrate Iphone With Factory System?

I have a 2005 silverado that has Onstar, XM, Bose, and 6CD changer. I currently have a PAC-OEM24 adapter connected to it, this provides RCA outputs that I have connected to a MTX amp which feeds a pair of Rockford Fosgate 10" subs. I also have a LOC sub volume that taps into the PAC adapter to control the sub volume independently.

 

I recently purchased an iPhone that would like to integrate. I would Like to be able to use all my factory equipment, stereo/steering wheel controls, to control the iPod funtionality, as well as use the voice control capability of the iPhone. I would like to be able to use 'voice dial' with the iPhone, have all sound to come through the existing speakers, and have the system auto-mute itself if a call comes in regardless of what input is playing; iPod/iPhone/cd changer/XM or AM/FM radio. What product(s) would I need to make this happen?

 

I spoke with a person at Installer.com and he said if I did the handsfree, the sound would only work through the front speakers and I would lose the ability to use the amp to power the subs when listening to music from the ipod functionality.

 

Is this just asking to much from the stock setup and I will be forced to go aftermarket?

 

Thanks in advance,

Randy

hey, im sorry if i may not be any help to you. i am also in the same boat as you. i got a 04 sierra and added factory nav touch screen. it has Bose, xm, and onstar. i do not have the 6 disc cd changer though. i have been wanting to get bluetooth in my truck but use the trucks factory mic. the only thing i have found so far is a device called argo bluestar. the only problem is that your onstar will not work anymore. i think its like $250 plus shipping. Google onstar bluetooth. i also found a company called galaxy 1000. you can youtube that. i went to their website and entered my truck and it said it wouldn't work and to call them when i get a newer truck lol. hopefully it was a mistake.

 

i have an iphone 3g. iv been wanting to be able to hook my phone up to my radio so i can listen to the ipod function. it would be cool to get text information on the radio asa well as change songs from radio or steering wheel controls. i for some reason went to ebay and typed in the search bar "iphone seirra" and got a good result to my need. unfortunalty i havent found one plug and play device to do everything that i want. i want to be able to press the call button on my steering wheel to accept phone calls and make them.

 

im sorry if i babbled but hope u can find something with my help.

      Very interesting thread. Definitely didn’t expect to see this kind of mileage out of that engine.

      J&L OIL SEPARATOR CO

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Just did an injector/HPFP replacement on Pepper at 192,400 miles; close enough to 200K, RIGHT? (If 200K is considered life end and to me it isn't). But hey, to each his own.    Have never run a catch can on this vehicle. Back side of every valve looked like a new valve spray painted semigloss black. Port walls looked 'neat' (all a normal result of passive EGR via VVT) Zero build up even in AFM cylinders. Just color. It uses no measurable oil and never has.    At 155,000 I put her on E-85 and a borescope of the cylinders at plug change showed very clean pistons and valve faces. The replaced injector tips looked new. (It was the pump piston seal that was leaking). Oh well, have six good backups.    Still gets 28 mpg on gas (highway average) and over 20 (highway) on alky. UOA's look good and runs as good now as it did when I bought it. Better in fact.    What improvement would a Catch Can provide this motor?     And given all this I expect that IF I installed one I'd see some water/gas/oil vapor accumulation. Byproducts of normal combustion.   Having said that, IF my motor used an appreciable amount of oil I'd consider it a useful 'crutch' until I had the situation corrected OR if bore polished, until I junked it or rebuilt it to stave off repeated plug fouling.    I'm not telling you what I THINK. But what its DONE.

      Starting a new thread regarding mounting my 2014 OEM wheels to my 2026

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Love the look. I'm a SCSB lover myself.    Two items. 1.) A spacer changes scrub radius but this also changes when we use wheels of different offsets. A little isn't a big deal. 2.) Steel wheels, alloy wheels all have different thickness. Same effect on the stud and lug nut as a spacer. When hub centric the wheel isn't supported by the stud. It's supported by the hub. The stud just keeps it all together.

      2016 Sierra 5.3L L83 new injectors now runs rich.

      By JAI3 · Posted

      I had a evap sol go bad a couple weeks ago. . I replaced it.  While watching live data at the time I saw I had some cylinder 1 misfires. No MIL but on live data I could see ~50 at startup and about 70 more after an hour a drive all on cyl 1.  I also noticed that the LTFT were -5% to -15% always.  And that bank 2 is always -3% richer than bank 1. Even across all driving modes, city, highway, etc it’s always 3% richer than bank 1. So I start with the misfire. Swapped coil, plug, and plug wires from 1 to 3. No follow. I got an Injector reseal kit, pulled the D/s injector rail, swapped #1 and #3 injectors, resealed them, reinstalled and retested.  The misfire followed to 3. So I ordered and replaced all 8 injectors, spark plugs, and plug wires. Also replaced the 1 time use fuel pipes under the intake manifold.  Injectors that were in the truck since new were  Part # 12668390.  I replaced them with # 12742701 Got from RockAuto. Pretty certain they’re genuine and the correct ones. I called a friend at a parts store who told me “the 12742701 were the correct superseded part # for the originals I was replacing”. So started truck after replacing all that and it’s running -15 - -30 LTFTs. I reset the fuel trims with GDS2 and drove it for a 60 miles trip each way. There have been no changes in the LTFTs.  I checked if the HPFP was leaking into the crankcase. I removed the pvc and watched the trims. No difference.  I checked the alcohol content and it was at 10%  I’m out of ideas here. Truck seems to run great. Just always rich on the fuel trims.  Anyone with any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.  I ran an injector balance test just for the heck of it and it came back this. I’m confused.  I have gds2 and some other diag tools if anyone knows of anything I should test next.
