I believe I might have figured out a work around on this. I disabled the "Change with Buttons" option on the iPhone under Settings-Sounds & Haptics and tested it and the ringer volume remained where I had set it.  

Does this prevent the ringer volume be being decreased if you need to go to a meeting and push the side button to lower the volume?

Yes, so you could only change the ringer volume in Settings-Sounds and change the slider volume there.
Or if you’re in a meeting the vibrate switch would still turn off the ringer sound.

What iphone do you have? Maybe it's fixed on the newer versions.

 

It’s not. We’ve all tried that. 
 

My 2019 has this issue. Even with the new v807 software they just rolled out. 
 

However, when I had a 2020 LT loaner, I had no issues with my phone connecting, syncing contacts, volume, etc. Very weird.

I have same issue with 2019 GMC Sierra, ringtone iPhone XR lowers to nothing, have turned off change volume with buttons and issue persists.  Spent 1 1/2 hr with iPhone support and narrowed it down to settings within infotainment on GMC, got no such support from GMC.  Google indicates several with issue.

I wondering if this is just a issue with iOS or does Android have the same problem?

After reading through, it didn't look like anyone responded to you. I have Android and experience the same issues described by my Apple brethren with volume being adjusted on the phone through truck changes and notifications not coming through the phone. Scouring the internet didn't yield a fix either. Seems we are in a waiting cycle.

Finally had time to play with the phone and truck today. Mine seems to work fine! It does lower the volume on the phone while connected either by Bluetooth or the cable and in apple play. However once I disconnect it goes back to full volume.

Iphone X, latest updates and in settings I have the change ringer with side buttons off, This is on a 2020 AT4 with the latest updates also. Not sure this will help anyone but my experience.

The technology on the my 20 is so much different than my 18 that I just traded in.  The volume on the phone goes down and stays down after exiting truck which has caused me to miss many business calls! (Irritating)  It no longer reads my text messages to me while driving, instead have to look at phone unless of course I want to plug in for carplay.  Very dangerous looking at phone for text messages.  Wish I had known some of these things prior to buying, might have considered a different brand.  If anyone has a fix for these things please advise.  Thanks

I feel your pain about the text messages. GM removed that function with the 2020 models. Huge step backwards. I’ve called GM to complain but obviously did no good. Disappointing, especially since it’s as simple as a software update.

I experienced same issue of volume going down and staying down even after leaving the vehicle. Was missing phone calls and text messages. I followed the advice given in TSB # 19NA270 and no longer have this issue after turning off the "change with buttons" setting. I have an iphone xs with ios 13.3 and a newly purchased 2020 GMC Sierra. I too am very disappointed with GM for removing the text message feature from their infotainment system as was on my 2017 Sierra. With Apple car play plugged in one can get messages but it is ridiculous to be required to plug a phone in so one can receive text messages. And why GM still requires a cord for car play in 2020 is beyond belief. The phones have supported wireless car play for quite some time as well as many car manufactures. GM is way behind with their infotainment technology and needs to update their systems ASAP.

My earlier post regarding the volume being turned down on my Iphone after connecting with the infotainment system in my 2020 Sierra is no longer valid. The fix I employed from TSB # 19NA270  worked until my system updated to v148. Neither work around mentioned in the bulletin now fixes the problem. If anyone has found a solution, please post.

The way I see it GM is manipulating MY IPhone not their IPhone. GM through their internal app intentionally lowers my phone volume when I push the ignition switch to turn on the motor of the truck but when truck is turns off the app doesn't increase the volume back to its original setting and its caused me to miss several important calls.

If GM doesn't fix this issue and eliminate this function I'll be forced to execute a lawsuit against GM

    • I have seen different people in different places post different sizes of exhaust as stock for my 2014 Sierra L83. Some say 2.5 some say 2.75. I am considering replacing the muffler with a Dynomax Super Turbo, perhaps 17739.  I had the factory L83 5.3 replaced with another L83 5.3 from Jasper Engines. I also put new Walker Cat / Y pipe on. I would appreciate opinions suggestions about what would be a good muffler setup. My main interest is a low rumble and the best flow / fuel mileage I can get. Not interested in straight through glass packs or loud exhaust. Those days are way behind me now.  Thanks Guys.  
    • Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB 20-NA-166 -  20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"     I'd say its the head, and its either leaking at the casting line and dripping down the intake into the cylinder, or its another spot on the casting itself at the cylinder that is getting wet.  
    • Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.    
    • Good information!  I didn't know about the dementia aspect and asked for a general for my second knee. I'd heard that recovery room time is usually shorter with a general.   The anesthesiologist talked me out of it and I had the spinal.  Inconvenience and/or discomfort is a small price to pay for reduced risk!
    • This is for those over 70 years of age contemplating joint replacement surgery involving general anesthesia. Even some 55 yrs. ago when I took my pharmacology class the dangers of developing dementia in the elderly that had general anesthesia were beginning to be recognized. Over the years there has been some refinement in the cautionary warnings, avoid general anesthesia if possible if you've had close to 10 priors, especially over the age of 70 and/or a family history of dementia. I'm not including the twilight anesthesia induced by propofol often used in cytoscopies or colonscopies. Seriously think about seeing a neurologist and undergo cognitive testing before proceeding if any of those criteria apply to you. Spinal anesthesia may be an option in some cases. I'm in the above camp and although I could use a new right knee, I get fidgety according to a prior orthopedic surgeon when the bone saw spools up or maybe it was the smell of saw blade meeting bone, anyhow I may have one general anesthesia left in me which I will pocket for now and I'm choosing mind over mobility, anyway where did I leave my damn cane!
