RPO IOS and IOT are user OTA updatable. IOR is not.
 

IOR is the standard radio on RST. IOS comes in Convenience Package II and includes Bose and a bunch of other little things.

so weird that the RST got f'd over when it's a pretty expensive package and not to shy of the ltz with features.

Yeah, you can actually load up an RST higher than a base LTZ. That said, the top end of the LTZ is much higher. And most of them on the lots have at least the plus package, if not the premium package.


Most RSTs I’ve seen in the wild are configured to the middle of their price range, where the value is probably the best.


Fully loaded RSTs approach the “holy crap” MSRP...where unless there’s good incentives, you’re better off going LTZ or even HC.

I have a 2019 Sierra SLT running v805. It keeps saying I have no update available. Hopefully it shows up soon.

anybody else having problems connecting to the GM marketplace or and apps store?  

I can connect to the Marketplace and the Apps store with V807. I had a problem with connecting to the Marketplace early this morning for some reason but it works now.

I got the V807 update a few days ago I believe it was Wednesday or Thursday. I’ve driven the truck a few days now and today (Saturday) I was driving and all of a sudden my infotainment system and my small screen on my instrument panel for no reason restarted while driving. I was not touching the system at all just driving. It looked like it restarted similar to if I had turned the truck off and turned it back on. Everything worked fine during the shut off and it came back on fast but then said no gps and did not have the outside temp. I got to my destination and it was parked for about an hour and no issues on the way home. It was just very strange. I have no idea why it restarted. It’s been a few days since the V807 update and this was not my first trip since the update. If it keeps acting strange I will take it to the dealer.

i didn't see the update and shut my truck off and the radio didn't shut down when I opened the door. I restarted the truck a couple of times with the same results.

I shut the radio down then turned the truck off. the next time I drove it I saw the update notice. Download did its job and everything seems fine.

Just got the v807 update. I was on v803 before. 2019 RST with the Convenience II radio package. Build date 2/2019. 
 

Got it in the Costco parking lot when I parked the truck. 13 min download and install while I was shopping. ??
 

Only thing I’ve noticed is that I STILL cannot sync my iPhone contacts. So frustrating. Worked when I first got the truck for a few months, then just stopped. I’ve tried every possible trouble shoot. ???‍♂️

I got the update yesterday as well. Was really wishing they included the rear window leak bug fix in this release. Maybe it'll be in the next update.

Read this thread just yesterday. Checked and it had not been updated to the 807. 

Went to work this morning and pulled into work and the notice came up on the screen. 

I did the update and we will see what happens when I leave from work later today,. 

 

 

EDIT: drove home from work.  Didn’t notice anything different.

Got mine yesterday.  After a few unsuccessful attempts I realized it's not good to have something plugged into the front USB port.

 

Worked fine after that.

I have one of those holy craps. No Z71 package because the $3K 22" wheels eliminate the Z71smaller knobby wheels. Still a lot of crap to get a double cab RST to $56.5K on the sticker.....more than many LTZs on the lot. And has the Convenience II which gives the console/SD card updatable IOS radio. Running v. 509 and says no update available so checked with the dealer and it is current for my Nav system. Everything works fine, never had an SD card error, boots almost immediately through the profiles and no Climate errors.....so update number is irrelevant - nothing to fix!.

yep that's where mine is and it fit me perfect. Nice trim, nice wheels and all the bells and whistles I really need (carplay, heated stuff, remote keyless etc) and nothing extra except the safety package which was on the truck I wanted. I dont think the safety package is worth what they charge, but I don't hate it either.

i'm the opposite kind of, RST with z71 and I think I was in around $54k with options... I needed that dual exhaust haha.

    • I had an issue with a new 1985 Z-28 some years ago. The 4WDB's were less than adequate when purchased IMO.  I had taken it in for small warranty services and asked them on three occasions to check them. Each time is was "could not duplicate on the service ticket. The warranty ran out about a month after my last visit and had to take it back for warranty rework. I again complained about the brakes. Well, low and behold, this time they determined the rear calipers were sticking and gave me a quote to repair. They had records as well as O had receipts of each time complained about the brakes while still under warranty. My dad was a life long body shop owner and told me to keep my cool and tell them that I wanted to speak to the GM Regional District Manager. The service manager disappeared for a few minutes, came back and told me they would replace the calipers free of charge. 
    • Towing a 2022 Lance 24 ft travel trailer with our 2021 GMC Sierra 2500HD, gas.  Loaded, trailer is about 6,000 lb.  We get up to 10 mpg at 55 mpg, such as I-5.  Pleased with the combination.
    • I decided to give it a shot and see what sort of a gong show it would be to a pan drop themed oil change on my 2025 gas truck with the 10 speed. All indications I had seen so far was that there was no way that pan was coming out of there due to the cross over exhaust pipe not allowing enough clearance for the back end of the pan to duck out from under the valve body since it hangs lower than the pan to trans mount flange and certainly the filter does. I never touched any of the exhaust mount hardware at all, be that the engine manifolds to Y pipe, the bracket on the side of the transmission, or the two bolt flange further back behind the trans/transfer case. I put the truck up on four jack stands as there was no way I was going to struggle with that lack of clearance under the truck. The truck was cold as it had sat over night so all the trans fluid had drained to the pan, so I drained the bit of oil that would come out of the level check plug at the bottom near the front of the pan and put the plug back in to reduce the ensuing mess after that. Then took out all but one bolt front and rear and then pushed up on the pan and took out the remaining two bolts and then let the front of the pan tilt and spill out most of its contents into a drain pan. I then popped the pan gasket off its two locating nubs and kicked it a bit to the left side so it was no longer on the flange of the pan to get all the clearance I could and managed to get the pan slipped out of there by swinging the front of the pan to the right but keeping the rear part of the pan inline if not slightly to the left of its mounting flange area and lifting the front of the pan enough to keep the rear part of the pan low enough that allowed the pan to "JUST" slip out without forcing anything. I installed a new trans filter and seal and as per GM instructions on this site I torqued the two bolts to that 44 inch pound goal ( they take an 8 mm socket ) In reversing the pan procedure after I had cleaned up the pan both inside and out completely ( touching the outside of a dirty pan and dealing with installing a gasket at the same time would be a disaster ). First I slipped the pan into place and yes it took me a while as it won't go unless its slid in just at the right angles, then once the back of the pan was into the area of the flange mount, I went and got the gasket and then threaded that through the front of the pan and feeding it under the filter etc and finally working it onto the flange of the pan and lining up the two locating nubs to drop into the pan. Then lifted the pan up into place and get a couple of bolts started and check and make sure the gasket is where its supposed to be as the bolts were being put in. I never used any power tools as I don't have any of the whimsy little drive guns, I use what looks like a small screw driver handle with shank that has a 1/4 drive on the end of it and added an extension and those bolts use a 10 mm socket as some times power tools can bite a person if used on delicate parts ( torqued to 80 inch pounds ). Also should note as per rules around pulling the add plug out first, yes I cracked that loose with a 8 mm Allen bit socket on a 3/8 slim head ratchet as there isn't a lot of room to work with there either due to the exhaust on the right side of the trans.    I already had delco ULV oil on hand and of course the quart bottle pump wasn't made for those small cap threads so I had to use some other containers that the pump would fit and keep transferring oil over into them so a wasted exercise there but indeed the small pump did work just fine as ULV oil is thin and easy to pump in summer time weather. I put in 9.5 quarts as per prior minimum recommendation and yes that cut it pretty close as once I had the truck ( off the jack stands so its level ) and the trans oil up to 167f , about 6 ounces came out but a level kit or what have you could throw it off just enough that it wouldn't be enough oil so probably that 10 quarts is a good amount to put in so one doesn't have to add more oil as when its hot I sure wouldn't want to be adding oil so would have to let the exhaust cool. All I do for warming up the transmission is sit there with it in park and rev it to about 2500 rpm and it takes close to 20 minutes to get it up to that lower limit of 167f, weird how it will warm up more doing that then by driving it, I am not real keen on power braking the truck to get the temp up there and don't seem to have to either. By the way I only have 9000 miles on the truck so probably not a very good payback on doing it that soon and the magnets had such a minor thin layer of fines on them so that was good to see and the color of the oil was a darker red then new oil but still looked very good as it should and I've not done any towing with it so its been living a pretty easy life so far. The filter is made in such a way that its next to impossible to pull out the filter media but there certainly was some fines showing up there which makes sense give the trans having to break in.    I hadn't really planned on explaining this much of what I had done since there are various instruction videos kicking around or I think so, as the gist of my message as that by fluke or what have you, for some reason my truck has just enough clearance to slip the pan out from the trans. Of course there is no guarantee that other trucks like this in general will also allow the pan to be taken out without messing with the exhaust as I expect its probably a crap shoot if it will or won't, I was just happy to find out that mine would work and avoid all the other struggling and possibly damaging things in the process,     
    • Do you fellas think Fog Lamps would  be a good upgrade for our 2024 2500 HD Custom ? As you probably know it did not come with them ,  Would you put in GM Chevy parts ? Do they get wired up to the switch panel ( Upfitter or whatever the correct terminology is ) on the dash ? Thanks
