We are actually working on upgrading the IO3 to the IO5/IO6 systems, but the project is a few weeks from being complete yet. We are pretty certain that we can do the upgrade though.

As far as the I04 upgrading to IO5/IO6 we can do that all day long…however it’s not totally plug and play. There will be a different HMI required when upgrading to either IO5 or IO6 which we can help with, or if you have gotten the parts already, you will absolutely need some programming done on the modules before they will fire up and work in your vehicle.

Is it possible to have other things flashed to the 4.2 inch radio? I don't need Navigation, but are there other options for this radio?

Looked like the same topic from what I could tell. I was hoping to give everyone in there enough info to help with what you guys are trying to do. There are a lot of variables in doing this upgrade, so it will probably be easiest if you guys just call.

Soooo....we can do the I04 to I05/ I04 to I06 upgrade with no problem at all :thumbs:

I'm pretty certain we are good to go on the I03 to I04/I05/I06 as well. I would be willing to work with someone on this project that is looking to get this done. Would be at a smoking deal in order to verify full functionality!! I would require good pics and video footage as part of the deal....feel free to shoot me a message if interested.

There were 2 that I remember....1 talking about rostra and 1 taking about image quality.

I've looked through this post and am looking to upgrade my 4.3" to the 8" but don't need the nav part. I'm really looking for the upgrade for the touch screen and back up camera (which I have already bought the parts for). What is the part number I need for the screen assembly itself? I know where to get the HMI re-programmed so I'm set there. Thanks.

I just installed the IO3-IO5 upgrade with bluetooth and backup camera from MVI. Its Awesome!

The install was not difficult. There is a couple wire connections that have to be made so as long as you can solder it should be no problem besides that it was plug and play.

Some of the labeling as to what wire to connect to was a little confusing when connecting to the BCM (some had 2 of the same colour wires on the same connector. Yes the wires in the kit do come labeled with the colour and pin # but good luck seeing those numbers.. lol).

The full length install video's are awesome but some picture diagrams would help as there are some things not covered in the video.

But the customer service was Awesome. I text to let them know i was having problems and they got back to me right away.

Shipping was fast less then 2 weeks from the day i ordered and i live in Canada.

I took pictures of most of the connections during the install so i can upload those later.

 

Cheers.

Does anyone know where to find an 8" replacement screen for the 2016 Canyon? and the module to go with it? I just want to upgrade the 4" screen to the 8" screen. I don't really care about the navigation. I have IO4 now (4" screen w/Intelilink). Thanks. All I can find on the internet are for Sierras/Silverados. Nothing for the Canyon.

Post that question in the colorado/canyon section. I doubt you'll get much help in the K2xx forums.

So any update on this? I'm trying to talk my GMC dealer into ordering the io3->io4 upgrade to add XM radio. Website says it'll work in 2014-2015, so I guess a 2016 Sierra should work too?

      The problem with failure rates or increase failures are there’s people who don’t have a problem. What are you doing wrong they say. We had 4 5.7 GM diesel’s in the family when they came out. One was flawless. My uncle who happened to be the most abusive. Early rotary engines were known to use oil. I abused my first car so bad in six months I replaced the clutch, transmission and rear end. It didn’t use oil. My brother in law has a 2013 Tahoe and an older Yukon. The Yukon has 280K miles. The Tahoe around 175K. He runs them to about 300K. If his lifters fail before that time he would consider it a failure. My Hondas, I know people hate it when I mention them. Identical engines. One with cylinder deactivation one doesn’t have it. One shudders when the eco light goes on or off. Cylinder deactivation. But wait! According to the web. It can happen with lock up too. So now people in the know are changing the oil and transmission fluid more often. Then you read it could be a programing issue. So what do you do? There’s lots of money involved. I see three ways to deal with it. One only works if you don’t drive lots of miles. Lease, never get out of warranty. Or only buy older vehicles with a good track record. They all have bad runs. Usually when there’s a change. Even Toyota and Honda.

      Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By newdude · Posted

      GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.
