Mine hasn’t synced with my iPhone for months. Just stopped a few months back.    I tried everything. Unpair, re-pair, etc etc. When I try to initiate the sync from the truck, nothing happens. W

I was having this problem until today. Seems the newest IOS 13.4 update fixed mine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just picked up a new AT4 HD on May 19/20. $92700(Canadian) truck. Infotainment system sucks balls. My wife and kids listen to me better. Not a happy customer.

Same issue called the dealer and they said that was strange ha.  They need to have the truck to diagnose but I'm not hopeful. The infotainment system on these trucks are getting worse not better. 15, 18 and now 20 Sierra Denali all have had problems with phone and syncing!  15 was the best but last 2 are terrible and my truck is my office so I need it to work...

Each time I start my 2019 Silverado, many of the contacts do not load. It varies each time to which contacts load and the ones that don’t load

Thanks hotrods37 I'm going to give it a try.  I typically wait until the kinks are out of iOS updates but this is encouraging...

I have IOS 13.4 on my iPhone XR and still having contact sync issues.  Picked up 3500HD AT4 on March 20 and have issue since driving away from dealer.  Been on the phone with Onstar and apple with no fix.  Truck is in at dealer now as they are getting GM on the phone to help.  Reading the previous posts, I'm not holding out a lot of hope that this can be a simple fix other than replace the radio.  Will advise later what the dealer comes back with.

Yep, no change with 13.4 getting a little perturbed. Very inconsistent when I get in the truck sometimes it sync's up other it doesn't recognize the phone. What can we expect for 70,000 dollars!!

Brought into local GMC dealer in Twin Cities.  They spent hours on the phone with GM tech adviser.  Final resolve was this from GM:  "Advised GM is aware of this issue with the iPhone contacts on the 2020 IOT radios.  We have been seeing that this issue may be something engineering has to investigate.  NO REPAIR IS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME.  AS ADVISED BY OUR STAFF, CUSTOMER TO USE APPLE CAR PLAY AS WAY OF CIRCUMVENTING RADIO ISSUES UNTIL GM RESOLVES THE PROGRAMMING SITUATION.

 

Service manager at dealer said that it could be months or longer for GM engineers to fix being there is no official recall's or notices at this time.  While I am still able to drive the truck fine, and for that matter love everything else about it, I do find it frustrating that one has to have a work around to circumvent an issue that GM knows about, and admits to knowing about, but doesn't seem to have any urgency in finding a fix.

Thanks Hog, and I hate to say this but I think its time for me to look at other makes the next truck around.  Getting tired of paying big bucks for lackluster performance.  Thanks for your insight...

      PF63 Oil Filters Going Away?

      By Atlas · Posted

      I only have a few of the ACDelco blue remaining. One or two of the (old, old) ACDelco Professional boxes, and a couple of the newer style GM boxes with the simulcast in Chinese along with English. FWIW they've all been pretty good, regardless of where they are made, and in 20 years I've never had a problem with an e-core filter.   Now I have a couple of the "A" series in my home inventory. They come in a plain white box with the GM hologram sticker and model information. Have not installed one yet, want to use up my oldest inventory first.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      I suspect at some point in the near future, the hardware will be free and you pay a subscription to access the vehicle - alldata style.

      BAK MX4 EZ-Lift Install and Review

      By parthery · Posted

      I've been eyeing an upgrade to my tonneau cover for a bit now.  Intrigued by the BAK MX4 EZ-Lift with the torsion spring and went for the upgrade.  Thoughts and musings during unpacking, install and a few days of usage.   Once my order went into Realtruck, it took about 4 days to ship.  Unfortunately, FedEx Ground destroyed the box and contents and it was unusable upon receipt.  To Realtruck's credit, one email with pictures and an RMA was sent to me to send the first one back, and another unit was shipped out.  It arrived 3 days later, unscathed.   I opened the box and it looked like every other BAK MX4.   Biggest differences are the rails and retaining clamps, and of course the spring attached to the cover itself.     NOTE - if you are upgrading from a MX4 to the EZ-Lift, you will have to replace the rails.  The EZ-Lift rails have a notch cut in them to allow the new style retaining clamps to fit properly.  The new retaining clamps also have 2 knobs/carriage bolts and there are two tracks underneath the front panel. The strap clips are mildly different (more like the Undercover Flex clamps) in that the screws go in from the underside.  Personally I prefer these over the BAK clamps that use the nutserts that are a nuisance to install.  The remainder of the parts in the box (drain tubes, rail clamps, and bumper pads) are standard issue BAK.     I did not replace my front bed seal at the time because it seemed to be in decent shape.   BAK recommends shims on the GM trucks unless you place the clamps on the flanges about 1/3 of the way in from both the front and rear of the bed.  I shimmed the front and the middle, and initially placed the clamps equidistant.  This also turned out to be a mistake, because when I set the cover in place, the new style retaining clamps wouldn't clear the front clamp.   New style clamp inserted in the track:     And the issue which occurred because the front rail clamp was too far forward:     Once I removed the shim from the front of the bed, and slid the clamp back to the front flange, everything cleared fine.     The cover set on the rails without issue and I installed the strap clamps.  After I completed my adjustments, I pulled the pin to activate the torsion spring.  Mistake #3 on my part.  PULL THE PIN AS THE VERY VERY VERY LAST STEP!  The reason is, once you pull the pin, the torsion spring is activated.  If you have to loosen the front clamps and adjust the cover, the front panel will - by virtue of the spring, refuse to lay down.  The only way to get it to lay down so you can reinstall and tighten the clamps is to fully open the panel against the back of the cab, which will then allow the front panel of the cover to lay down and be tightened.  Not a big deal unless you haven't installed the foam pads yet (typically the last step) because minus the foam pads, you will need to place something between the frame of the cover and the back window so it doesn't get scratched.  The next time I install one I will install the foam pads before I pull the pin and activate the spring.   After using it for a few days:   The spring assist is great.  You literally can open it with one hand.  My shoulders aren't getting any younger and this was part of my motivation to swap out. The second panel latches and unlatches itself as you open and close the cover.  Neat in concept, however it took me a minute to get used to closing the cover and not hearing the "latching" sound that would tell me it was locked in place. The paddle handles are a huge upgrade and I wouldn't be surprised to see them become the standard across the Realtruck line.  They effectively eliminate the concern that a thief could coat hanger the cover open and get to the contents in the bed. I'm not sure why the very front panel on my cover has a different finish from the other 3 panels.  I have a request into Realtruck to find out if mine was not manufactured properly or if it was by design.   All in all I'm pleased.  Same level of protection, looks good, keeps stuff mostly dry (they all leak around the tailgate) and easy to install.
