I have a 2018 Tahoe and using an iPhone 8 with iOS 13.3.1 and having this issue- CarPlay doesn’t always work when plugged in- also getting notices that phone is not connected- just doesn’t make sense.  I tried the settings and shit of off- turned it off and on, used an apple charger- nothing is working and very flustered by this!  Chevy what else can be done!!?

Also be sure to reset your radio fuse (RDO), pull it out turn on the car plug it back.  This will also reset your USB's if they have stopped worked.  On a Chevy 2016 Tahoe this is fuse # 29 located on the passenger side panel.  Also when you restart you may need to hit the projection icon to get apple carplay going.  Also be sure to use a genuine apple lightening cord.  I have an Iphone 7+ with the latest OS update 14.3

 

How to connect:

• Lightning Connection:

• Plug your phone’s Lightning cable into the vehicle’s USB port.

• If Apple CarPlay doesn’t automatically launch, on your infotainment screen, tap the APPLE CARPLAY icon or PROJECTION icon.

• Follow the prompts on the screen and on your phone to start using Apple CarPlay.

CarPlay not working on Chevy Tahoe

If Apple CarPlay does not start on your Tahoe when you plug in the USB cable and there is no CarPlay icon in the list of apps in the infotainment system, it can be due to a number of reasons:

·         CarPlay is disabled in the infotainment system settings of your Tahoe.

·         CarPlay is disabled in your iPhone, go to ‘Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Allowed Apps’ and enable both CarPlay and Siri.

·         The Lightning-to-USB cable you’re using is defective. Try a different cable, preferably original Apple cable.

·         The connected USB port on your Tahoe does not support CarPlay. Try other USB ports.

·         A software glitch is responsible for the CarPlay problem. Reset the Tahoe’s infotainment system to its factory settings.

·         You’ve an older model of Tahoe that does not support Apple CarPlay. Only 2016 and later model year Chevy Tahoe vehicles are compatible with CarPlay.

Also purchasing one of the wireless Carplay/AA adapter.  I leave it permanently plugged in and when I get in the vehicle my phone automatically connects.  Plus if your phone can charge wirelessly you can just sit the phone on the charging pad.  Easy Peasy.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By newdude · Posted

      Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
