Can you message me how much MVI charges for the phone mirroring module? Would love to run Google maps and movies on the big screen.

I looked at this too but read the GM IO6 wasn't pre-programmed, "had to taken to your dealer for the VIN", that was my problem, my dealer (one of the largest) said they couldn't add the VIN to the IO6 because the factory GM programmers they use can only access by the VIN, and the IO6 was not in the original build by VIN.

 

There are others here or elsewhere that can perform this VIN match by ether the purchase of the IO6 from them already matched, or have a IO6 VIN matched by someone that offers that service.

 

After being educated on this, I decided to not go with the limited IO6, thou it is plug-n-play. Anyway went with a smartphone mirroring system instead. Way more bang for the $.

Thank you for the information. I see in multiple post that no one has been to contact kodiakz. Does anyone know if he is still offering the IO6 HMI module?

Preprogrammed HMI module, gps antenna (can't use splitter as only trucks that come from the factory with nav have the antenna cabling that utilizes the splitter) 15 minutes and you are done! We actually did not need to program the tuner nor the VCIM. all voice commands worked fine. There are aftermarket systems that will work and cost less, just not as well as the oem unit

 

Hi Kodiakz, I've ordered a 2015 gmc sierra with an 8" stereo with no NAV. what's the cost of buying that kit of yours ?

I'm glad they don't show you a day or two later when they realize all of the stuff that doesn't work properly after putting the wrong module for a 14 in. Oh you lost song name display no biggie, oh the frame changes crashed the instrument cluster oh well, oh the media disc player won't play discs anymore too bad. Oh the display text runs off the screen darn! The list goes on and on and on.

I hope it will be a simple swap of modules to get Apple Carplay when it comes out.

I had looked at them earlier in the year for a Impalla system. At the time I didn't notice a specified system for a Silverado MyLink, but I hadn't purchased a new truck yet.

 

Seeing your post got me thinking (hard to do), the smartphone mirror system I recently installed from MVI/GM-Navigation in my new Silverado, had Cadillac 2015/2016 on the CAN bus and the MyLink interface so perhaps Sintegrate has a Silverado system too.

 

btw- My new smartphone mirror guide is done. http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/175444-new-2015-silverado-smartphone-mirroring-guide/

Gm-navigation.com has a smoking deal on a limited amount of units right now should probably call them asap ;)

I got mine from Anthony @ Gm-navigation.com. Everything was super easy to install, true plug and play. I'm not too mechanically inclined and I installed it with no problem. I got the nav., text, and video in motion. It looks identical to what my buddy's 2015 SLT has who ordered his from the "factory". Kids love the video in motion, took a trip to Beaumont from New Orleans and the system was flawless. Best upgrade to my truck yet!!

      Cold start Miss, oil in cylinder

      By Keith179 · Posted

      I’m out of ideas on this truck. 2020 Silverado 1500. 5.3 135,000 miles. Has a p0308 and p050d codes. Smokes From exhaust when cold. Compression test passed. New plugs, wires and coil on cyl 8. Same issue. New coil on 8, no change. Replaced injectors, no change. Bore scope showed oil pooled on the piston after sitting overnight. Pulled head and had machine shop check it out. No cracks. Stem seals looked good, replaced anyways. He also ground valve seats. Put it all back together and still have the same issue. Bore scope shows oil on the piston again. Leaning towards maybe a cracked ring but unsure. Cylinder looked good when the head was off, no scoring or scratches. Any ideas on what else I should look for?  Appreciate the help

      2021 Silverado 2.7L – N232395310 – Can someone with GM dealer access check my VIN?

      By HeronLeal · Posted

      Just want to make sure it is covered by Special Coverage N232395310 Evaporative Emission Purge Pump 2021 Silverado 1500 Custom 2.7L L3B ~100k miles I'm getting DTCs P146B and P146F. VIN 3GCPWBEK2MGxxxxxx   I spoke to a person that works at GM and he said it is not covered after checking my VIN.   Is there anyone here who currently works for a GM/Chevrolet dealership and has access to GM Global Warranty Management / Investigate Vehicle History who could explain how the VIN eligibility is determined?   thank you

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      Thanks for all that information, I might purchase one and see if it will work for me, if not they may let me return it! Yes for sure the tires are definitely within limit for my truck empty, and when I do tow I'll definitely make sure to raise the rear psi for the amount of weight that's going to be on it.

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes exactly, more and more these days people/companies are afraid of liability issues so its easier just to say no rather than risk putting their neck on the line.    I will say with the Autel unit or when I used it last year on my truck, it wasn't like I could choose the 2025 model year or even the 2024 model year as that option was not there to manipulate the placard pressures but had to go back to 2023 or there abouts and then it showed up as an option, odd but that was how the software was then and I can't say one way or the other now as they throw out updates every so often. I still would talk to your tire dealer though to start with and they may do it for nothing but also they may have a comment on a better unit to purchase. All I know is that one of the large tire shops in my area happens to use these Autel units for their use and set them up to use the wifi and all of that jazz for constant updating because each tire tech has one handed to them by the shop but I just plugged it into my laptop to update it and yes if one is bought it has to be registered so you can get the link to do updates and then the unit has to be updated before its even used. I am not at all techy so it took me a bit but anyway just a heads up for anything you buy, most likely it will need to be connected to a computer to access the internet to have it updated to the latest software version before you can put it to use.   If your truck is near empty, those tire pressures you listed are a very safe upper range pressures to carry the weight, both the front and rear as I know they could be run lower yet with an empty truck. And if its a trailer and not some motorcycle your going to strap onto the front of your truck on a rack, you shouldn't have a need to inflate your front tires if your at 55 front already, its the rear ones that would need more air if you have much hitch weight.

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      Thank you, I'll check that Autel scanner out and see if it will work for me! Ya I can see GM's point of view if they lower the psi set value for someone and the person sell's the truck and the new owner puts the factory tires back on then their could be liability issues cause the psi warning light wasn't coming on when the tires were under inflated for towing their load and then it might be able to be traced back to GM lowering it.
