I found out this weekend that while using Android Auto (maybe CarPlay as well) if you rotate the right radio knob it will zoom the map in and out.

Discovered this today.... if you press on the skinny pedal on the right, you can find Ford F-150's in the rear view mirror...   They just appear there... its like magic!

Look at this post.

 

 

older model but I did something similar recently, https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/258553-rear-lights-added-into-bumper-steps-rigid-ignite/#comment-2592799

 

as the other poster above said for 50 bucks and 30 minutes and harness for it there but it sure wasn't very hard, the new bumper steps a little different and I believe someone else with a more loaded up truck did something recently and there was a bit less room behind the one side for the back up sensors stuff? but he still got it done

 

to note, when you tie into the bed lights feed, the bed lights will work in reverse or park but don't work in drive, which is fine, I prefer bed light tie in for more manual control especially when parked and wanting to work on something behind vehicle like a downed deer, so reverse tie in wouldn't be as useful, if I need more lighting while backing up I just turn the bed lights on and away we go

Using your thread I'll be doing this to my HD but will be using the factory upfitter switches (when I install them). I'm in the city and don't need it in reverse constantly, but it would be nice while hooking trailers and doing other truck stuff.

Refresh Silverado 2022, On cold temperature days so far discovered between 50's ~ 60's if the HVAC is off and upon starting the truck, the heated steering wheel and heated seats will automatically turn on for 5 minutes then turn itself off.

My 19 does that also.

Glad you found out 3 years ago, discovering it now would be a shame of ownership 🤣.

Silverado 2022 refresh, turning the Fog lights on during the daytime also turns on the running lights.

Apparently pulling fuses #60 and #67 in the under-hood fuse panel disables AFM on the 2.7T engine. The fuses are labeled AFM1 and AFM2.

I only had my new to me 2020 LT Trail Boss for a couple weeks now, and today I noticed my steering wheel has buttons on the back side👍  I can scroll through my music favorites with my left hand and adjust the volume with my right hand.

I would have never noticed these buttons i hit it by accident...

The owners manual is available as a PDF on the GMC website, just in case you didn't have one when you bought it.

Supplied owners manual is a joke. Online is double the information.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      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.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them.

      I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By whenindoubtuseahammer · Posted

      Good evening. I was lucky enough to get passed down to me a 2007 GMC LBZ that was my great uncle's. While the underside and rockers are more or less gone I feel like with time I can restore it to working order since it only has 110,000 miles and he put nearly every option he could get without getting the new body style since he did not trust DEF. So far I have done everything I can think of but when I put the key into the ignition nothing happens. I put 2 brand new batteries in it. Cleaned the terminals. Check all the fuses and relays and they all pass with my multimeter. I know I'm missing something that I just cant think of. The only odd thing is the OBD2 port works which makes me think its not the mega fuse. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

      Looks nice. I still have my 2000, 1500. Bought a 2025, 1500 for retirement. Feels solid. These trucks have a bad rap on the internet. My brother has a `24 1500, 5.3 with 52,000 miles. No problems at all. Mine hasn`t either but mine`s only at 12,700 miles. Have seen some of these things with 100,000 miles with no problems.
