16 Sierra :

 

I am noticing a strange "glitch" that i am wondering if anyone else with a 16 Sierra has noticed. when i lauch the pandora app it will play "Most of the time" on the last station i was on no problem, however i am noticing now that if i change pandora stations the display says "Acquiring Pandora Radio" it will play the new station and keep playing songs it just says "Acquiring Pandora Radio" If I go to the "AM/FM Radio click any of my presets, then click back on the pandora icon it will show the artist / song etc.. and not say "Acquiring Pandora Radio". Same loop happens if i change stations on Pandora again.

 

Bought it to the dealer, they said there was a radio update and it was fixed. Went to the dealer picked the truck up and saw it was still doing it. Left it overnight got a call saying it has to be the app on my phone that other trucks do the same thing in the lot with other guys phones..

 

My 14 never had this issue anyone else seeing it? .... :bs:

I've seen it on my '15. Face it, this sh#t is not ready for prime time. I think it's the phone or app. Unless you update the truck (which rarely happens) and things change as to how it works then think about how often the phone and apps update.... All The Time. I got a new phone 3 months ago. Pandora worked flawlessly for about a month. Then it started having odd behavior. The truck didn't change but the software on the phone did. I just accept it and live with it. It may get worse. Our service manager just went to some meetings and was told because the phone and software advance so fast that GM can't keep up. It would help if all parties would stick to a set of standards but they think their way is better.

I think it's the app, I just recently started having issues with my aftermarket Pioneer radio showing Pandora stations too.

I'm having issues since I upgraded my phone from the galaxy 6 to the galaxy 8. My pandora app worked great in my GMC on my galaxy 6 but once I tried with my galaxy 8 and tap the pandora app, the app comes up with my station and list like normal but then immediately backs out of the app after 2 seconds. I've only been able to get the app to stay on twice since getting the galaxy 8. Not sure what you can do about this. Any thoughts besides just blaming software on the phone or pandora?

Sometimes mine does not work with the Pandora app on my touch screen. Ever since I put a pass word lock on my phone. If I unlock my phone first then hit app on screen it works every time.

    • It varies a ton around me. Some places are still at $5.00 or higher and others are way down into the $4's.   Offroad diesel was $4.02 at the one station I passed today.
    • So after reading the reveal from Chevrolet, I kept asking myself...why did the trim levels change?   Here are the official ones:   Work Truck (WT): The quintessential fleet truck, built with durable, easy-to-clean interiors for commercial or utilitarian use. Custom: A stylish, road-oriented trim that adds a more refined appearance, standard dual exhaust, and modern exterior styling. Custom Trail Boss: An entry-level off-roader featuring a 2-inch factory suspension lift and 34-inch mud-terrain tires on a budget. Silverado: Serving as the new base consumer truck (replacing the previous LT trim), it comes standard with the Z71 off-road package when equipped with 4WD. Trail Boss: Steps up the off-road hardware with the 2-inch lift, 34-inch tires, monotube shocks, an exclusive off-road hood, and more premium interior options. ZR2: The flagship off-roader. It boasts 35-inch mud-terrain tires, Multimatic DSSV dampers, front and rear electronic lockers, forged carbon-fiber interior accents, and an available hardcore Bison Edition (co-developed with AEV). High Country: The pinnacle of luxury. It replaces bright chrome with modern satin chrome, 22-inch wheels, premium leather, real wood interior trim, a panoramic sunroof, and an exclusive front-passenger touchscreen. As others have stated, why would you want a Silverado - 'Silverado' - wth?? LT needs to remain!!!   Also, there will no longer be a dedicated Z71 model.  All 4x4 trucks will have the Z71 package. Carplay is also something that cannot be removed.  Hopefully it will remain.     I am excited about the 5.7L V8 (350 C.I.D.)  Old school Chevy power.  My only concern is whatever version of AFM/DFM cylinder deactivation.  Too bad that isn't an option a buyer can choose to have or not.   I will definitely be stopping by my local dealership when these trucks start showing up.
    • I haven't seen diesel for less than $5.30 anywhere in my area
    • The not as clean as one would assume theme with the new engine oil, that reminds me of comments over the years with mechanics not always being so on board with filling an oil filter, not from the center anyway due to that typically being the clean side of the filter, danger of some contaminant falling into the filter if not careful but the realization now that the oil may not be as pure as one had assumed it would surely be. Yes it would be possible to fill from the small holes but that means messing with something to prop open the anti drain back valve if the filter is so equipped and not damage that valve in the process. Me, I have hardly ever prefilled an engine oil filter however I have prefilled diesel fuel filters with a filter on a fuel bulk tank and for anyone that has messed with diesel engines with filters and units that have a limited or no way of priming them, putting on a dry filter is a bad day to say the least with those crappy systems. But anyway back to not so clean engine oil, indeed perhaps its not so bad after all that I have not made a practice of prefilling oil filters.    As Grumpy Bear commented on keeping things clean, that I really have to wonder what the typical practice is at a dealer or any other shop that changes engine oil, do they make sure to wipe or wash off the oil plug and certainly if it fell into some gunk or onto a dirty floor, or that they wiped the filter mounting flange and didn't go and use some dirty rag and end up adding dirt to the inside of the head of the filter mount. Or be careless in how they stored or handled the new filter and if they were bumping into items under the vehicle with the filter opening facing up and having dirt drop right into the filter and if so right into the threaded center that is on the clean side. The top side, did they clean away the built up gunk that may be around the filler before removing the cap or to be really careful at that point that something right close to the filler hole that was hidden under the caps flange won't fall into the engine. Or did they clean the funnel or was that just laying there covered in oil from the oil change before and dust kicked up from sweeping the floor stuck to the oil and now that will go running into the next persons engine due to just not cleaning the funnel as "they won't know anyway" attitude as that young guy is more worried about taking a break so he can go outside and smoke a joint. Just random points that came to mind when I think about what some hired personnel may do that the shop foreman has no idea of or perhaps the whole attitude of some shops may be "eh ... who cares, they will never know the difference anyway".
