I have 17k miles on the truck and suddenly no sound. My Link display still works, bluetooth still dials by voice, but can't hear the person I am talking with. No sound out of the speakers. The turn signals don't make a sound, the radio doesn't play, my iPhone doesn't play, the reverse assist doesn't make a sound, no sound for seatbelts. Nothing. The display shows I am listening to which ever source I choose, but nothing. Anyone else have these issues? I'm new here and quickly searched the threads, but didn't see anything. Thanks for any and all advice!

Exactly the reason I am holding off on my Whipple supercharger setup till the factory warranty is out. If anything happens they will blame it on any mods

Same happened to my 14. All i did was turn it off open the door let sit for 5 minutes and restart. All worked well.

I would trade my warranty for a Magnuson Supercharger today if I could. Any takers?

Rebooting works for me when MyLink screws up, likely some type of logic lockup under certain conditions, door reopen, radio playing, using Bluetooth at the same time etc.

 

Remove, wait about 30 secs. and reinstall the RaDiO fuse (in the passenger side dash fuse panel) to reboot the My Link system. There are software bugs they still haven't resolved (mine has the latest rev.) and they carry through to the 16s with the 8" screen.

It's also related to a weak or dying battery and the voltage drop during start up. Noticed it happening with my truck. Started with no sound. Pulling fuse only worked after truck was running. Headed for a new battery now.

Hmm.  I've read in some other posts about poor battery life and it's incredible to me that these batteries last such a short time.  My 11 VW Golf and 13 Passat are both over 100k miles, w/ their original batteries.

My 15 started doing the exact same thing. I thought after remote start installed something in the programming got messed up. I also found if shut it off and lock doors let everything power down and then unlock and start truck all works normal again. Not sure if remote start is cause but leaning to not if others having issues also..'

Thank you all for posting your solutions to what seems like a chronic Chevy problem.  I was so frustrated when the radio, chime, and blinker click started acting up about a week ago.  After a few starts and stops, and a  reset on the audio settings, the sounds would come back only to fall silent again.  This morning I got in, heard the chime, and the radio came on.  I thought it was going to be a good drive to work.  When I turned the key, I heard that dreaded sound of the starter dragging, then that rapid clicking sound that is made when the battery is almost dead.  The radio went silent, along with the door chime.  My heart sank.  I turned the key once more, and the engine roared to life.  I drove to a local parts store and purchased a new battery.  It seems that Sean D was spot on.  If it happens again, I'll pop in and post an update.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By newdude · Posted

      You need a better code reader/scanner.  You are missing codes.  Did the dealer give you a copy of the SAVI scan from that visit?     If the fluid hasn't been changed, change it.  Shudder will likely go away.

      Can anyone decode a VIN to determine if this truck has had emissions issues or a recall?

      By newdude · Posted

      TLDR to my other post...   Hard. Pass.  Too many what ifs.     Are you set on a 3.0 Duramax?  Have you considered anything not GM just in case?  If you don't have to have a pickup, lots of other options for $27,000 out there.

      I see some red flags.   - No mention in the Carfax if the oil pump belt was changed.  LM2s had a 150,000mi service interval, and its got 164,245mi on it.  So right out the gate it needs about $3000-3500 for that to be done before driving it another 150,000mi.  Belt is at the rear of the engine.     - If something happens to the transmission valve body, the special coverage is expired by mileage.  That will likely be an out of pocket expense, with zero or near zero GM participation if something happened even though its in by time.   - 2020 LM2s seem to need timing chains after 80,000mi at some point.  They fixed this end of 2020/starting 2021 model year engines.  They will usually set a P0016 I think?  There is another $8000-10,000 if it needs a chain.  The main chain is at the back, secondary at the front so the pump belt would be done at the same time if it needed chains.     - Long oil change intervals.  7,000-8,000mi on average, probably close to 0% or perhaps to or beyond 0% on the OLM.  Lots of them not at the dealer which makes me wonder how much of the oil ran through that truck was the proper Dexos D rated 0w20 oil and not just gas engine 0w20, which is not the same at all.     - Long fuel filter changes, again likely taking the fuel filter life to 0% or more.  First one went 28,603, second was done 43,094 miles later at 71,697, from there another 46,452mi to 118,149mi, and then the most recent one 37,026mi later at 155,175mi.  So counting its original fuel filter, its had only 4 fuel filters on it.  No bueno IMO.         Good news?    - It has had only two warranty trips to the dealer.  The first free service (end of December 2020 on the Carfax), and the transmission reprogram recall (end of August 2025 on the Carfax).     - Truck did a LOT of moving, so that might explain the lack of emissions related repairs like bad NOX sensors, bad exhaust temp sensors, bad glow plugs, etc.         The "emissions system checked" could just be how something was flagged for Carfax.  GM dealers have to do SAVI reports for warranty repair orders so they scan the truck.  So its possible that is there for that?

      Thank you, @Z45!   NOTE - No all repair shop/Dealers reports to Carfax   That is my main concern.  The CARFAX looks way too clean for a 6 year old anything with 164,245 miles.  Even something known for reliability (like many Toyotas) typically has a lot more replaced, like a Nav screen, interior trim, shock/strut, or brake pads.  And surely the last set of tires (installed at ~58k miles) would be bald unless those were all highway miles.   I'm tempted to pay a local dealer to look up the VIN, but am not sure if that will be worthwhile.  Last time I did this, it was 100% useless, and I felt scammed - they noted the bumper was replaced years ago and that's it.  A 5-year old could spot the accident damage, even though nothing was on the CARFAX.   After giving the dealer a call, the truck may have a hard shift, but they have to verify with their mechanic if that's even a concern.  And I've test driven about a dozen of these now, many near Chicago, and half the trucks shift hard/odd at all throttle positions.  The ones with aftermarket lifts/larger tires shift terrible, and 3 stock trucks shifted so violently I thought the transmission valve body was going out.   At this point I'm conflicted, as I need a vehicle, and am coming up short locally.  Northern trucks in this price range tend to have either multiple owners, a lot of mods (lifts/oversized tires without re-gearing), and are generally in rougher shape.   If this truck showed up in your neighborhood for $27k and you had to purchase it sight-unseen, with the possibility of needing a 10L80 rebuild, torque converter, or rear end - would you do it?  I'm convinced most of the 10L80 trucks I test drove are broken, they can't all shift so bad, with massive flares/slipping/lurching and mis-matched downshifts like a teen driver learning stick.

      2027 GMC Sierra Spot Shots + Undisguised Interior (BIG Changes!)

      By Griffin Donovan · Posted

      From the spy shots, the front end does look like it's borrowing some styling cues from the Canyon. I'm more interested in the powertrain news than the screens though. If the 3.0 diesel survives into the next generation, that alone will keep a lot of current owners interested.
