Heads up Display Chevy vs. GMC

robertkoors · April 17, 2019

I have a 2019 GMC Denali Ultimate. I believe I have the most up to date software in 803. I was at my Chevy dealership with a friend and he was driving a High Country and I noticed the Heads up Display showed audio information and other information when changing channels, etc. My Denali does not do that and I wondered if anyone else knew or saw that the same? Not to say this bad, but would the Silverado have additional features the Sierra would not? I can't believe the Denali would not have "all" the possible features considering one is paying more for it, but from what I have seen, this information is not shown on the GMC's. I have brought this item up previous as those features are shown on GMC's website when advertising features of the Sierra and mentioned it to my dealer but they say there is no way they can find out from General Motors. Can anyone confirm if their Sierra/Silverado shows audio information on their Heads Up Display? Thank you in advance.

High Country with the latest software and there is no Audio info displayed on the HUD.

I can confirm my AT4 does show audio info on its HUD when changing channels and songs when on apple car play.

My LTZ shows it when changing songs or stations and I do not use ApplePlay. Have latest updates for infotainment and Onstar pushes one last week. Don’t remember version though

Is there not an "info" button that lets you select what information is displayed through the HUD?

Just checking. Do you also get phone information displayed on the HUD with an incoming call?

The only button is the info button in the set of 3 hud buttons and there is nothing there abt audio. As far as phone call, I haven’t checked the hud when I get a call but will now.

I think it is build date related. From what I have researched, trucks built after the first of the year have HUD that shows audio and phone, those before do not.

If I push the info button on my '19 Suburban here are the 4 screens that it cycles thru.

I could not find a simple software ID number, under software information from the cluster it said open source with some website address, from the infotainment system it had a few very long numbers under the software info for the map and the sort. Same message and website thing .

This is what my '17 Camaro HUD looks like. My '19 AT4 looks completely different.

My 19 HC, Built 08/18 has Channel displayed on HUD when changing channels, it stays up on the HUD for a couple of seconds after station change. I'm on 801 but I believe I've had this since day 1.

Thats interesting - I also have a 19 HC, built 8/30/18, and I do not have Channel Display on HUD. I'm on build 501, however, I do have the 5.3. I see in your profile that you have the 6.2. I see further up the thread that Smoothie also has the 6.2, and has the Channel Display. I wonder if that's going to be the identifier that identifies the difference? Build Date, Software Build do not seem to make a difference. Hopefully others will chime in with their engine displacement to confirm.
