Just an FYI, the newest infotainment update is becoming available. I assume it’s a staggered rollout like in previous versions, but you can check to see if it’s available for your truck as follows.

 

From the home page...Settings- System- Updates. You need either the GM LTE service or have your truck connected to WiFi.

 

This promises to bring bug fixes with HUD, climate off message and some other crap that’s been annoying! I am installing now so we will see.D0B0C70B-8342-4027-9B2E-B27D67CC1A91.thumb.jpeg.c4667ea766a0086ca5cb65613c279a49.jpeg

I honestly cannot believe how bad that system is. Its WELL over the 100th release for software (internal and external) and its still buggy as all get out and people want to put them into the old trucks?

I think I'm either on 509 or 507 as well. Very annoying. 12/2018 build date

Dealer can do the update if the OTA doesnt push (as its about 50/50 on that it seems).

I never received the 803.1 update.  Still stuck on v.509.  Ugh!!!

803 got recalled I believe. I was on it and it sucked. It brought more bugs than it fixed. 

 

So far 805 has at least fixed 803’s problem of not highlighting the preset that you are currently tuned to, or disappearing and coming back.

I've read here that the 2020's will have an updated Infotainment display with album artwork, etc? I would imagine that's purely software and not hardware. 

 

So I wonder when that will roll out to the 2019 models?

Mine had a build fate of March 29, 2019

Wander what version mine came with?

I'll check for the update. Thanx

Scheduled for the Nav upgrade tomorrow which also upgrades IOS to IOT capability and I should get the posted speed limit sign which I miss from the Traverse. Just checked with the service people and it will also install the latest upgrade.....maybe even fix the "Climate Off" bug.

 

I had enrolled in the GM rewards program and never received points for the Silverado purchase....called and they boosted 25000 points so redeemed for $100 off the Nav upgrade.

Here is the bulletin from it:

 

Some customers may comment on software issues. A continuous improvement software update is being released with updates made on the following areas: HVAC, Bluetooth, and general system improvements. Most notable improvements include:

  • False Climate Off Message when HVAC is active.

  • Delay after ignition on for Bluetooth contacts to download.

  • General Bluetooth robustness changes and improvements.

  • Radio display shows partial image, vertical lines, or in rare instances may smell a hot odor or see smoke when entering the vehicle or shifting out of Reverse.

  • Static pop from speaker when door is opened.

  • Preventative robustness enhancement for RVC.

  • Navigation picture display is incomplete on HUD during Active Guidance View.

  • Robustness improvements for software update.

  • Rare loss of chime at ignition on.

  • Australia only – When installing calibration archive to deactivate OnStar, it does not fully remove OnStar features (Australia).

  • Australia only – loss of turn signal indicator click clack (Australia)

The cause of the condition may be software anomalies.

 

Correction

A new radio software update, version V805, is being released for vehicles equipped with Infotainment system RPO IOS, IOT or IOU, in addition to providing general robustness and stability enhancements. This update includes all enhancements from previous software version releases.

This update can occur remotely through in-vehicle prompts from the radio display. However, some customers may decline the vehicle update or the update may be unsuccessful. Along with the vehicles mentioned above, vehicles in unconnected markets, and fleet customers will need the dealer to reprogram the radio with the new software package.

    • I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions. 
    • I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that. 
    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
