Because the charger is positioned toward the back, and with the way the pad is, the bumper on the backside pushes the phone forward away from the charger. So reversing the mat allows the phone to be p

The 2018 works just fine with my iPhone X.  I just went to the dealership and tested it out.  I got the part number for the 2018 wireless charger module which is 13507652.  The parts guy said that it

See the PDF file attached below this poor quality unformatted copy/paste list which phones are supposed to fit properly and charge in our trucks. You can read on the bottom 2 paragraphs some notes and phones that don't fit due to physical size. The new Galaxy S8 fits but the S8 plus does not according to GM.

Notes: 1) If phone does not charge, remove it from charger for 3 seconds and rotate phone 180 degrees. 2) Not all phones fit into all vehicle integrations. 3) Cases used on phones with built-in wireless charging capability may have reduced performance. 4) Do not use the wireless charging system with objects between the charger and the phone. 5) Phones that are longer than 150mm (approx 6 inches) may have reduced or no performance. 6) Phones that are not listed have not been evaluated for compatibility.

 

Incompatible Phones Due to Physical Size: 1) Samsung Galaxy S6 Active 1) Apple iPhone 6 Plus, 7 Plus 2) Samsung Galaxy S7, S7 Active 2) Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus 3) Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge 4) Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus 5) Samsung Note 5, Note 7 G

Do you have a case on the s8 plus?(If so which one) I'm going tomorrow for new phones and was going with the regular s8 so I can use the wireless charging feature. I know some hate it, but I like it and use it everyday on my way home.Thanks..

I have a S7, and it charges fine in my truck....

 

...because I installed my own 3-coil wireless charger under the mat. :)

Ditto. Even charges in an Otterbox. Sometimes it does move off the pad though.

 

But I have the bench seat. I'm not sure the phone fits in the bucket seat console. I know my last phone (Note 4) didn't fit in the bucket console but did in the bench console.

I don't get what all the fuss is about charging. My Samsung s7 lasts almost 2 days. No need to charge it slowly on a wireless pad. Mine is plugged in to usb for android auto all the time anyway. Glad a few different solutions have surfaced for those with bigger phones who want the feature

The phones will charge on the charging pad, they are just too large to seat themselves in the proper spot with a case on them. I have a 2016 with the Qi pad, and it worked fine with my S7Edge and also works for my S8+. I'll try to get you a pic this evening when I leave the office.

If you angle the top bezel of the phone at downward angle with the top bezel pointing toward the front of the truck, with the bottom bezel raised outside of the pad, the phone will not slip, and it will also charge flawlessly. But, since the Qi pads aren't fast charging, I'd recommend getting you a fast travel charger and use your AC/DC jack that should also be built into your center console. I only use the wireless charger if I don' need some juice quickly. I forgot what the output rating of the pads are, but it's not very high.

I hope that makes sense.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
