Got a 2019 GMC Sierra Denali - Has all the bells and whistles, BUT no CD player. Anybody got a fix to add a CD player to my truck? GMC & Chevrolet dealers are absolutely no help.

Its 2020, physical media is dead. Put your CDs on a flash drive or stream like the rest of the planet.

I like having a CD player.

Bought a new Honda. No CD player.

Friends bought a new KIA. No CD player.

My 2012 Sierra, no CD player.

Use a flash drive in Honda and my truck.

Couple options.  The best option is to put your CDs on to a giant USB drive.

 

Streaming.

 

USB powered CD player.  

 

Trade it in for something that has a CD player if you really really really really really really really don't want to get with technology.

Looks like the replies you are going to get will be more useless than the one from the manufacture and dealers......

I do not miss those things skittering all over the truck if I have to hit the brakes really hard.

Not in the least little bit.  32 gig flash drive holds more music than you can get in your glove box/console compartment.  And easily accessable.

More useful replies than the manufacturer since Chevrolet/GMC don't even have the option for one from the factory at all.

That is actually a really good reply to his question.

 

Not sure he was asking for alternate solutions with different types of media or personal preferences or which decade he should live.

CD's are obsolete. If Chevy put one in your truck - they would get LAUGHED at. ESPECIALLY in a vehicle with apple car play. You can play any song on demand whenever you want. If you feel you truly need a CD player buy one and install.

I use iPod, my phone with pandora and I heart. If I at almost 65 can figure out how to convert my CDs to my phone or iPod anyone can. The best part you can put ear buds in and go portable.

Just buy a portable CD player and connect it to the aux input in the console. Or like everyone else said, stream/USB/CarPlay etc..

Being obsolete isn't necessarily a bad thing. People still have horses even though they are far inferior to motorized vehicle. Some people just like to remember the "good old days".

I totally agree. I'm a vinyl record guy myself. But the point is state of the art designers and engineers are not going to put a CD player in a new truck. Just like they wont put in a cassette player or 8 track tape player. You have to go aftermarket like the suggestions say.

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Thanks for that, yes just because I could I measured what came out just to give me some guidance although I already knew to expect it to take at least 9.5 to just throwing in the whole 10 quarts off the shot and doing a one and done heat cycle to drop out the excess to get to the proper level. I don't recall exactly now what I measured that came out but was less than I put back in, I knew I spilled some on the garage floor but the main part was that I was thrilled in the discovery I did not have to touch my exhaust to flex it down. The gasket manipulating is a pain of course to create that clearance to take the pan out and put back in but its all very doable if one is careful and not forcing the gasket to flex too much. From the quote I got at a transmission shop of 900.00 here in Canada ( never asked at the dealer what they charge ) I saved 700.00 doing it myself after paying for the supplies so that to me paid very good wages !, and I knew what fluid was put in and that I had changed the filter and that the level is correct without any doubts.

      I found a setup that lets me open the cover partway with racks installed, using side-rail-mounted systems for easy access.

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Typically its said and I agree so far that the engine oil drain plug oring is not required to be changed out unless you see some damage happening to the oring as apparently the oring lasts well. The dealer I have been getting a few parts from never even stocked the oring but instead stocked the whole drain plug that comes with a new oring which for the dealer is easier because they just throw in a new drain plug if there was any question about damage on it as well and charge the customer accordingly but again only if it is needed.    Also a hint about the drain plug oring to help it last vs a risk of causing damage to it, after its been removed and wiped off or washed off ( that is a whole other topic about some solvents damaging orings because some solvent types do ) to make sure to relube the oring with a bit of new oil so that it won't "grip" on the sealing surface of the pan and needlessly stress out the oring. Its no different than putting some oil on the sealing ring of the engine oil filter. So I just grabbed a new drain plug to have on hand although more recently bought just the oring as well but as its special it costs half the price of the drain plug ... !   Since you mentioned the hate to be empty handed theme, I am not sure what you have in the way of filter removal tools as I like using the exact sized for the filter steel 1" wide band with side to side swivel handle filter removal tool, and it can be used to snug up the filter without risk of damaging a filter as well ( its probably a lisle brand I have ). The drain plug hex size is 15mm and I always like using a 6 point socket if I have a choice and with this truck I've been using just a 3/8 ratchet that has a fairly long handle. Do you have a funnel that will work to pour oil in as that is definitely the short coming bastard part about the design with that fill port on the valve cover on such an angle that no normal funnel will even work. There are adapters and things on the market that will set into or screw into that fill port, I didn't want to deal with US shipping as that is all I was seeing at the time so caved and bought a Lisle brand multi vehicle fit adapter funnel kit and it really works well but there are much less expensive adapters out there that work in conjunction with an off the shelf funnel that would do the job also. Now that I have it, I like how it works and works so slick with the shape of the Amsoil 1 quart containers I have now switched over to. Whatever you do, have a funnel system of some sort as you will be swearing if you dropped the oil and then realize you have nothing to properly pour new oil in without spilling it all over the engine !.     Other comments, quite a bit of oil flows out down the filter when its cracked loose due to the housing above the filter so let it dribble down the filter until it slacks off flow and then remove the filter to create less possible mess. It seems these engines can sit for quite a while and drip and if you have time let it sit there and drip out of the engine as much as it wants. Also a good time to grease the 9 zerks on the front end, that's my typical practice anyway to grease the suspension and steering each time I change the oil. And remember to reset the oil change minder ( not something I am used to doing with older vehicles and equipment ).

      I really did not measure what came out. I carefully followed directions to check level after i did the spill and fill and filter change. I used 10 quarts. 9 was not quite enough. My trans temp was about 175 when I checked it. Truck sitting in my driveway very close to level where I always check oil pretty much every time for consistency. My driveway is just ever so slightly downhill to run water to the street.
