+ programming.

So...I will confirm this this week. Unless they have released new fitments in last couple months (which I'm pretty certain they have not), the GM Accessory NAV upgrade is only available for the 2015's and NOT the 2014's. Even then, they are only available for certain trim models. I would tread very lightly here with these sites offering these. You basically have parts guys trying to make sales quotas selling product and they are offering this stuff with NO Support! There is an entire process that the dealer has to go through with these "activation codes" and it is very Vin Specific and very Year specific and it will get kicked out. This will result in a charge to you from your dealer that has wasted their time trying to get a module working in a vehicle it was not set up for....Guaranteed!! Then the nightmare return process will start. :shakehead:

I would definitely tread lightly

 

If it helps...I do have some 2014 modules at a pretty good price right now....while supplies last and you won't have to go through any headaches of even involving the dealer.

Text me for more info

Minimum of 1 hour labor...so on average $120.00 per hour. Some will be more. I did confirm that these are only available on the 2015's though. getting a dealer to get a 2015 module work in a 2014 will be next to impossible. You would really need a good tech to get this done.

Well I got my package today, I had ordered it before I found this site and after reading all the post on the GPS upgrade Im almost sure mine came from the same person that is a member of this site that sells them, even though I ordered from a company, I think he and the company are one and the same, I have gotten dash clusters from them in the past, good people to deal with, I have a 2014 crew cab that I bought that was five months old with a little over 6,000 miles on it, for what I think was a good price, but after reading all of this thread I took my truck to the dealer today to check for recalls and up dates and it had several, that needed taken care of, they cant get to it until the 10/22/14 so to keep from having any problems with the up dates, and the upgrade GPS system Im gonna wait until they have taken care of all the updates before I install the unit, hope mine goes as smooth as what Ive been reading on here.Also they are going to check the drivers seat to see why it has a popping in it when I turn a curve sounds like something is broke in the seat bottom, dont make the sound all the time..or should I say the feeling that I feel in the seat...

Well I have put the navigation upgrade from shopchevyparts.com in a 2015 and a 2014 w/no problems. It is authorised by gm because they give you a key that the tech uses when he calls programing support and they add to vehicle vin# so its always there. It's says only 2015 but will work on 2014 as long as it's i05 w/8" screen.

    • I will be one of those "blinded". One, I like new shiny things. Two, I've never kept any of them beyond the 3/36. Three, I don't finance anything. Four, yep, it's a waste of money....so,what? I'm doing my part of keeping automotive industry going and keeping my neighbors, most of whom are in it, employed. 😉      By the way this is the "signature... ¬  
    • Although there is a "recommended" weight by those who sell trailers, my experience has been that they are way too aggressive in their information, for me at least. My '22 with 6.6 Gas, has a payload of about 3400 lbs and depending on your specs (I don't have 4WD so it has a bit higher Payload than others) yours will likely be different. Payload is one of the most important numbers for towing. Although you "could" tow the max trailer weight for your truck, I, personally, would not go close to that number. Having said that, a lot depends on how/where you will be towing. I live in the LMD of BC and often tow to Denver, Co, along interstates (flat and mountains) and I find I need to keep it in 5th (6spd) for the trip and travel at around 65mph. This is for a trailer dry weight of just under 3500lbs. If you are only doing local, short trips, it would not be that big an issue if you had a heavier unit. You will be surprised how much stuff you load the trailer with, so I would only recognize the trailers "full" GVWR weight rating, then decide on the appropriate trailer from that number. If you are worrying about how much stuff you should be putting in a trailer, you might have too large a rig from the get-go. Once again, depending on what terrain/distance in which you will be pulling. Marv
    • davester, Thanks for the response, how ever, I think I am now a bit more confused than I was before I posted - - After I posted, I actually found a YT video of a guy who replaced his Module (above tire) and he only disconnected the ground cable of the battery, but you describe rubbing the two cables together after disconnecting. I presume that is to do as you describe and eliminate any residual energy? - When I picked up the Module (between my posting and reading your response) from the dealer, I specifically asked about any re-programming and he stated it was not necessary as it was simply plug and play. Don't know how knowledgeable he is, though. - The video I watched also showed the Module plug to be difficult to "unlock" and remove, but there was no mention of silicone, although the video did show a bunch of dust/dirt in and around the plug (old truck) during removal. Are you talking about silicone that was applied by the factory, or silicone that you applied prior to plugging in? Thanks again, Marv
