Page 171 of the 2019 Tahoe/Suburban Owner’s Manual shows Performance View.  It states that the HUD will show speed, rpm, transmission positions and gear shift indicator.  If appears to show the gear selected by the transmission while in D mode.  Mine does not.  Anyone else have this condition?

I didn’t notice that, but I was wondering why gear position is not shown.
I’ve looked at the manual, and I guess you have to choose performance view (the one with RPM) and then shift to M (not D) and by applying those steps you will be able to see gear position.
I have to try it later today!

The manual seems to say that gear selected would be visible in D.  I think my 2017 Corvette does that- it’s covered on a rack for another 5 or 6 weeks before I can check!

I just’ve checked my vehicle, it shows EXACTLY the same as what the speedometer shows (P/R/N/D/ and then L1-6 or M1-6), but D it self doesn’t show exactly which gear you are in.

That’s different.  I got the Corvette off of the rack.  My 2017 GS shows the gears selected, whether in D or M.  My DIC shows gear selection ay lower right corner of the tach.  It’s a round feature with a smaller one imbedded at ~10:00 position. When in drive mode, “D” is in the big part, and the gear selected by the A8 is in the small part.  When in manual mode, the gear selected by the driver is in the big part, and “M” is in the small part.  HUD is similar.

 

 Page 171 of the Owner’s Manual seems to indicate that the HUD should show gear selected, even while in D, like the C7.  Dealership says that either the manual or the RST needs revision...  I’m going there next week.

Mine is the same way

    • Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra. 
    • I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.

    • What’s missing in all this is patience and investment in the future. Buy a 170K starter home. Ten years later sell it invest in a more expensive home. Eventually you’ll have a 600K home and pay starter home payments. Buy a starter car. Maintain it well. Save the payments after it’s payed for then buy an expensive car if you desire. Buy a tumbler make your own coffee, pack your lunch. Cook your own dinner. Most importantly take care of your car.
    • People mislead themselves. Statistics are highly useful indicators.   Here's the tie-in to this thread. If an oil sample tests shows a wear indicator of 7 using cheaper ACDelco oil, and a wear indicator of 2 (lower = less wear) using a particular brand of Mobil oil, and wear has a linear relationship with engine lifespan, anyone could assume that Mobil is reducing wear by more than 50% (let's just say a 200% reduction for you red state people trying hard to do math) which leads to increasing engine life by 2x. Perhaps, in a vacuum, by itself, when dreamed by AI.   Yeah?! That's what the statistic is saying, isn't it?   No, it isn't. It didn't come out and say engine life is doubled. That's a very bad assumption, and a case of severe myopia by assuming something potentially untrue about the only data point in focus.   Average cost of a new car is 50k. You bet it is.   The median cost of a new car is more like 35k. Expensive cars are skewing the perception that "average" now means a $50k price of entry for a very average automobile. And that's not true. People who don't understand statistics twist the living heck out of them to mean all sorts of things they don't actually mean.   "Average" new car payment is $1000/month. Yep, it is. And in that number are all the $35k new car buyers who bring significant equity, and the $25k new car buyers who finance the car for a month just to get a rebate, and then pay it off. Know what isn't in that number? All the payments made by people who don't finance a car.   Picking one's own data point (don't have a car payment, never paid $50k for a new vehicle, my house cost $170k, I afforded a middle class lifestyle on $4.50/hr) is just a data point. Just like earning $25/hr in an area where the median home price is almost $1 Million is a data point. In fact, it's a lot of data points given that 80% of the US population lives in/around major cities. They're not idiots; the vast majority of them do it to make a living because that's where the big money is.   The highs have become higher, lows have become lower, and how your personal mileage varies is not truth for an entire country. At the same time you can't NOT acknowledge the data. While it doesn't paint YOUR personal picture, it certainly tints the reality that you also live in, as does your single data point.
