The dealer printed out some vague directions for setting something on my IPhone.   I threw mine away, but your dealer should have something you can use.

I am looking for the same solution if anyone has one.

Sorry, We are talking 2 different things I guess. When you get in and turn the truck on, it lowers the ringer volume all the way down. Many people are complaining about this and there is no fix. Doing

Same issue.  I have disconnected Bluetooth until a solution has been found.  Otherwise, I forget to turn the phone volume back up and I miss texts & calls.

I have a brand new 2019. Didn't notice it right away since I have an Apple Watch and get most of my call/text alerts on my watch until one day I forgot my watch and was at the food store and missed a bunch of calls from my daughter. Then I realized how this is an issue for me!  Any suggestions or do we all have to wait for a fix? I'll bet money if I mention this when it goes in for service next week they have no idea what I'm talking about!!!!!!

So sick of every time I get in my new truck the volume gets turned all the way down and stays that way after exiting it!!! I have to then manually turn the volume up after missing several calls and text... 2020 TB and Apple I phone 10.. I feel everyone’s pain.....

Yes I drove my truck again today (almost 400 miles in 2 mths LOL) and I am Ok with the bluetooth turning down the phone volume when it is connects, the problem is that the volume is not reset when the bluetooth is disconnected. So once you leave the truck you miss calls and texts and email alerts etc. 

I am going in for service tomorrow (tire balancing) and I will ask if they have figured anything out. The service guy is a younger fella (possibly a millennial) so he might be up on the latest news.

Mine does this intermittently since the last update on my android except it changes every time I get in the car, sometimes will be normal volumes others turned all the way down. Wont let me adjust the volume settings on my phone sometimes when it foes this also, very annoying.

If this is true I can’t wait for the update. Missing countless calls a day is getting old.

Worked for me. Have you not seen the update notice pop up on your entertainment screen yet? Mine popped up right when I shut the truck off a couple of times in a row until I did the download. It had a note that you could not start / drive or open the door of the truck for the entire 13 minutes so I had to wait until it was not going to be used for a while.

Please look and tell us what software version this is? 807.1 is the most current version as far as I’m aware. Thanks!

I am technology challenged so not sure where to find the info. 

I scrolled through the settings and only thing I could find was this screen. Does this look correct?

I have only driven my truck a couple times in the past 2 weeks. We had our 2nd baby and car seats are in the wife’s ride. Also she hasn’t been driving. I did use my truck today and no update alerts were noticed . I did have an update download about a month ago but haven’t noticed any real changes. I drove the truck today and missed 2 calls due to low volume.

Well after thinking about this could have been caused by the software update that they did at the dealership for he brake issue instead of the over the air update  or maybe the dealership one actually made the over the air possible?. I don't know all I can say is the truck has had a couple of updates in the last week and the IPhone7 volume goes back up like it should when the bluetooth disconnects now and it was NOT doing it before.

These trucks are so complicated that I am not sure if anybody actually knows what si going on with them, even the GM engineers that designed the silly things.

My firmware in my 2019 Sierra SLT is v807.  Issue still persists with my iPhone X.  For those that say it works now, how long does it take your phone to return back to the original volume?

      VSE CCV Bypass - Anyone have this installed in their L5P?

      By AbzDad · Posted

      I have the VSE CCV kit. It is a quality product. Fairly easy installation. I vent it back into the turbo intake horn, like stock. I check the reservoir monthly. I have seen oily water come out. So far, after 6 months I would say it has collected about 8-10 ounces of crap.

      I'm getting out in public more these days and rely on a walker for anything more than short distances.  I am impressed with how kind others are in their efforts to assist when they see me doing the old man walker shuffle!  I find teenagers hanging out at the mall are often the first to get ahead of me to open a door or to offer me the opportunity to get in front of them in a lineup!  I am very fortunate that this is temporary for me and I have a developed a huge appreciation for those seniors struggling to maintain some mobility. Walkers, canes or scooters will assist with mobility but they don't eliminate the challenges.  Chances are the individual using these devices are hurting.  A few kind words of recognition from a stranger can take away the discomfort for a few moments.  I am looking forward to paying forward all of the kindness I have received!

      6 Speed vs 8 Speed

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Curious @newdude, how does this change when a 6L80 is either fitted with a billet converter OR is behind a V6 whose converter isn't a pile of junk? Oh, and are you saying in the above the 4-5-6 clutch's burning up is the result of the converter/pump induced failure or they are just fragile? Thanks in advance for any feedback you may be willing to give.

      2021 with Intermittent AC Cooling Issues

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      5.3 Sierra with approximately 80,000 miles had a radiator replacement about 6 months ago which required pulling the AC condenser and a vacuum and recharge on the system.  AC cooled fine until about a month ago, when it would suddenly start blowing lukewarm air for 5 minutes at a time at various points throughout the day, then suddenly resume cooling again.  Sometimes its when stopped at an intersection and other times while moving.  I've read about the internal electronics in the compressor going bad on these trucks and not cycling properly, but sounds like many dealers just chase AC issues with a parts cannon.  Also wondering if they charged it correctly when the radiator was replaced.   Is there an easy way to see if these electronically driven compressors are engaging properly, or to check for freeze up, etc.?  Dealer usually wont do much unless they can replicate or I can show them a video of what's going on.

      Shift to Park Message Warranty Claim

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      Apparently it doesn't trigger a fault, at least according to my dealer, but in one month its gone from once or twice a week to several times a day, so you can catch it on video and its likely to be seen by the dealer.  I've heard some have replaced only the switch, yet others have required full shifter assembly replacement to the tune of $900+?
