I have been thinking that if the IOR cannot be upgraded, what if I replace the head and receiver to the IOS/IOT radio.. 

 

Just a thought and was curious if anyone else has thought the same or knows better to even try.

 

Parts online would be costly but I'm not even sure if it would work. Gonna ask the local Chevy dealer if they have any info tomorrow.

I have been looking into this also. Please dont quote me on any of this. I have a 2019 with IOR (no xm). I want to upgrade it to an IOS would be a pain because anything above an IOR is a bose sound system which requires bose amp. All the wires are different as far as I can tell. But the 2020 base radio has xm without bose system. I dont know what wiring the 2020 has. Not trying to hijack your post. This is info I have come across. Once again please dont quote me.

There is a non-Bose IOS system in the LT w/ Convenience Package II. That is also the standard system in LTZ w/o Bose.

I'm in the same boat..Just bought a 2020 and because there is no trucks on the lots here I had to settle with my LT without the Conv 2 package...Have you made any progress with you IOR swap?

The wiring is completely different between IOR and IOS/IOT doable but quite an endeavor.

yep, this is the system i have....

 

you know what i had the IOR in 2019 RST and to be honest there isnt really much difference....yeah a few more features but really my RST was fine.....i do like sirius xm but can get pandora or whatever on the other so

 

I was actually bit disappointed.....actually when driving its hard to use the screen to select things.....buttons are easier

I know this is an old thread, but how deep down the rabbit hole are we talking about? I’d like to weigh all my options and see how complicated each one is to do.

Put in neutral step on gas little shake then put in gear and gose.  Shut truck off start .. ok now at stop light stop truck after a few seconds feel a little kick if that doesn’t happen stuck in 3/4 gear shut truck off wait few seconds and start usually ok again. If you down shift manually ok as long as you get into 1st before stop. If not it kicks . I WANT A NEW TRANSMISSION. Now I want a new truck it just hit 80,000 IDK IF ILL BUY CHEVY CAUSE THEY STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM AND REFUSE TO RECALL . Oh I’ve changed the fluid and filter 3 times now.

      Of course refrain from political debate but I myself have very dismal hope for what is all going on up here every where we turn so I nodded my head when I saw this joke.

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.

      SERCICE ESC message?

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage.
