Mine is the same, Nav screen is very poor as well. I called the GM tech line and they confirmed that there is no contrast setting. I'm going to bring it to the dealers attention but I doubt it's going to get me anywhere.

My registration came in today so I stopped at the dealer to pick it up, while there I showed my salesman the nav and backup screens, he agreed it looked like crap. We went to 2 other 19 Silverados and they were both the same. He said hopefully there will be a software update to fix the issue.

Not trying to troll here but to be realistic, yeah software updates won't fix cheap hardware issues like budget cameras and low resolution infotainment screens..  Like i said in other post here, i bet anything the infotainment setups in the 2019's are the same tech only with refreshed software ui's as the one in my 2014 when they started putting them in these trucks.

 

That's why people here like me with 14 and up models are disappointed to see the same shortcomings with the 14-18 models present again in the 19's! This setup should of been completely revamped for the 19's and made to compete with the now tesla style setup the competition has.

The infotainment units are the new Gen 3 boxes for the trucks [They have been installed in other GM products] with RPO codes IOR, IOS and IOT. They are faster and come with more memory.

The cameras are better than the previous models. There are hiccups that GM needs to correct somehow.

My 2019 Silverado rear camera only work good on day time. At night? It's terrible!!

I thought my 2016 Malibu rear camera was piece of junk but it's worse!

I don't agree. My 2015 SLT Sierra was 10 times better than this... even at night.

It does depend which unit you have IOR is 7" while the IOS and IOT are 8" HD video. My IOT and all the cameras on the HC looked better then my 2016 LTZ backup camera when compared.

I have a 14 HC in my company and the camera and Nav screen are much more crisp and clear than my 19 HC is

I found that there is some sort of interference when the lights are on with the cameras image on the infotainment screen. If you want to try it turn off your lights while backing up by rotating the light  knob CCW. You will see a much better image. 

Not sure what about the lights causes the interference yet. Possibly power lines to lights and camera lines are in the same bundle?

A software update for the Camera and Infotainment system was just released.  Check your Setting, About and you should have Build V509

Coming from a 2015 Nissan Titan, I'd say the screen is remarkably clear.

      Enjoy the new truck, it’s a beauty. I’m glad you’re keeping the OBS, I love those old trucks.

      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.
