I have a 2015 Silverado LTZ and when I use the "rewind" feature to listen to a song again, the song just skips the entire time. I have perfect radio reception and it does it most of the time. I brought it to the dealer and they could not replicate the problem. Driving home it did it again so I took a video of it. I previously owned a 2014 (which GM repurchased from me due to numerous other problems) and I did not have this issue. Chevy is quickly loosing my confidence...

I have a 2015 Silverado purchased in December. Playback / Rewind worked fine at first, and now at just 5,000 miles it skips like crazy when the vehicle is moving. Works perfectly fine when vehicle is stopped or not moving. The faster it goes, the worse it gets.

The vehicle is at a GM dealer now. At first the dealer called technical assistance and they were told the radio is working "normal" and "as specified", which is a JOKE. The dealer was flabbergasted at GM's response. I have filed an official complaint with GM. Will update when this disaster is over.

Well, I'm making progress. GM Dealer gave me bulletin PIC6110B: Timeshift Audio Playback Choppy Distorted.

Says "Customers may comment that intermittently Timeshift audio is choppy, distorted, skipping, or garbled.

 

"RECOMMENDATIONS: Please do not replace any parts or make any repairs."

 

"Please communicate to the customer that this condition is a normal operating characteristic of their vehicle."

 

 

 

What a bunch of bunk! GM can't won't fix it!

 

Effects: 2015 Buick Lacross, Regal, 2015 Cadillac ATC, CTS, EL, EScalade models, SRX XTS, 2014 Silverado, 2015 Silverado, Colorado, Corvette, Impala , Suburban, Tahoe, 2014 GMC Sierra 1500, 2015 GMC Sierra, and 2015, GMC Canyon, Yukon Models.

Hi Jerricat,

 

I am sorry to hear that you have some concerns with your timeshift audio in your new Silverado and understand you are frustrated. If you would like additional support by reaching out to your dealer on your behalf, please send me a private message with your VIN, mileage, contact information, and the dealership you are working with.

 

Best,

I am curious, did Chevy/GMC dump time shift in the 2016's?

When I was researching and configuring my order I was very excited when I read about this technology as I was coming from an '07 Avalanche.

From what I can tell I do not have this capability in my LTZ.

I think I heard it's not available on 2016. I am not 100% sure. I never use it on my 2014 but I'll have to give it a try.

Not sure...it was on the 2015 and is a HUGE DOG. Doesn't work for crap. Comes with all the bells and whistles with the Navigation and upgraded screen / stereo.

Here is a great video that shows GM's TimeShift feature....Although they are having major issues with it.

I don't think the 2016's have it. My wife's 2015 Tahoe has it but my 2016 LTZ Silverado does not. I'm coming from a 2012 Dodge Ram and I so miss the radio in that truck. I could rewind, replay with no issues. You can even see what is playing on the other stations and not have to change the station to find out what is on the other stations. I can't believe how crappy this MyLink is. What a joke! Why is this so hard? Dodge has had these features for years!!!!!!!

Time shift works great in my 14. Best thing about it is you can hit "pause", shut the truck off, come back after picking up your favorite cold drink and a beef jerky from the 7/11 and hop back in, start the truck up, hit play and carry on where you left off. Take that Apple car play!

:P

I have a 2014 Chevy Silverado LTZ Plus, I payed $70,000 for this and I have already replaced an alternator and Battery at my own expense because i was 2,000 miles over my bumper to bumper warranty. my Play button doesn't even show up, only pause, Rewind and Fast Forward will not work as well. I am getting tired of all the bullshit that this truck has given me. I think all of us CHEVY TRUCK OWNERS with these issues should start a buyback recall. I think we all should file a lemon law action lawsuit against CHEVY. I have been a Chevy truck owner since 1976, and this is not what i expected to deal with when i waited two years to special order my truck in 2013. if anyone knows how to get this repaired please let me know. oh by the way my wife and boys almost died because of the alternator going dead at the speed of 65 mph on the freeway and she had no control of the vehicle because it completely shut down at the speed of 65 mph. luckily she puled over safely with no power and with no accident. but if something serious would of happened believe me i would be owning CHEVY and then i would shut them down.

Love my Truck though until something else goes wrong.

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I just can't think of the exact term GM uses for that higher gvw package without looking at the website but basically sort of a trailering package and I imagine it may also have been created to skirt around the licensing fee differences between a3/4 and 1 ton that apply in some states although ironically I believe in some states its the reverse that a 1 ton is the cheaper truck to license over a 3/4 ton. It makes no difference here in Alberta but oddly enough a 1 ton through my insurance company is a bit cheaper to insure over a 3/4 ton as its based on the insurance statistics they generate.    For sure when ever you do have the chance to weigh your truck and to be fair, try to have the fuel tank full or nearly so rather than give yourself a false sense of the truck being lighter by having an almost empty tank.    In my other comment I was mentioning stock sized tires and partly in case someone was reading this and thinking they could lower their pressure down to what your aftermarket tires are able to do with your empty truck as that is a vastly different picture in the leeway you have to play with for running minimum pressures while remaining safe. I will say also that its easy to see from reactions of truck owners that may have been more used to owning a half ton in the past or a car and be it on a forum like this or in person etc that they get so wrapped up in that placard pressure sticker that they can't get their head wrapped around the fact that an HD truck due to how much it can carry can also vary the tire pressures drastically lower than those pressures ( typically more so for the rear axle on stock sized tires ) when empty vs some car that isn't made to carry much so the tire pressures can't be lowered since it needs almost that much pressure just to carry the empty car.    If I ever do find myself in the states with this truck, I will only be too happy to switch it over to the US measuring system as then I will understand all the dash readings. The only thing that is off for me slightly with US measurements is US miles per gallon as I grew up with the Imperial gallon and to this day up here anyway speak in Imperial miles per gallon ( I don't do that on this forum though as that would confuse everyone for no good reason ).

      Yes that's right, it's the upgrade that includes the overload spring and all that stuff.   Someday when I'm empty and going by a scale I'm going to stop in and get some weight readings.   Exactly  you should have the ability to change individual settings, in in Canada so I'm driving with kph but then I'm stuck with kpa when I want psi lol

      You must have that upgraded gvw package which is only available or at least was in 2025 with the diesel engine for the 3/4 ton and that gave the truck physically the larger 12.0 ring gear rear diff and the 3500 rear spring pack. There is a difference in what the diff housing looks like externally as one tell tale and also your truck should have the upper overload spring pack and the frame pads that the pack goes up against.    The pressure the tpms system kicks the alarm in on a stock setting truck, that is a good question and was just from what I recall but I doubt I made any notes on it as I knew for the rear that it was not at all what I was after regardless either. Being that you have a diesel and if running on stock tires the minimum pressure on an empty truck seems to be around 50 psi from hearing of those that have weighted the front axle but the rear axle is very similar in weight to a gas truck and again a near empty truck on the rear could go down to 35 pounds at minimum. However the weigh scale is the proper way to know for sure as a guide.    As to changing the readings on the dash from metric to the US measuring system, oh yes that is done easily but what I was attempting to explain was that I can't pick and choose items I want to have in US and those I still want in the metric system at the same time as its either all or none. For example lets say you drove into Canada and switched your dash over to metric so your speedometer read in km an hour, well then your reading kilopascals on your tpms readout and your wife looks over and says what the hell is that saying in the tpms screen and you say "darned if I know, I think its Chinese" !

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      This is partly why I decided to have switched over to Amsoil SS as a way of hopefully preventing the buildup of the sludge/carbon on the pistons and clogging of the oil control rings and the carbon that would cause the compression rings to stick in their grooves as well as stay cleaner up top of the heads in the valve train in the first place, an oil that has tested better by third party testing over typical shelf oil and also doing my best to run relatively short OCI. However in saying that I don't think there is any way to easily prove the oil I was using prior allowed for a buildup at the OCI I was doing, nor in the other direction to make claims the Amsoil is keeping everything clean either. There really isn't a window into the engine is there to know anything for certain even if oil samples were taken for example that showed still healthy oil being dropped out of the oil pan other than engine tear downs that extensive and expensive testing of oils does to actually visually see what is really going on inside the engine. I wish there was some easy method of seeing what is going on but I don't happen to be aware of that if there is.

      My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page
