when i start the truck, radio volume comes on VERY loud.  In settings, i set the maximum startup volume to very low.  That works for a couple of starts, but then it resets itself to a loud position.  It doesn't matter what the volume is when i turn the truck off, it comes on VERY loud

talked to our salesman and the service manager.  They never heard of the problem.  A friend with a 2021 Silverado is having same problem.  He's taking if in for service tomorrow.  I will tell you what he finds out.

I have had a problem where my radio starts up crazy loud for a couple seconds then "sets" itself to MY Profile settings. After researching in here, there is sometimes a delay from startup to when your profile syncs and it uses your settings. During that delay it will be at whatever the settings are when there is no profile selected. I am trying to delete my profile now and use the "no profile" now with the sound settings at my preferred levels and see if that helps. My thought is that if you set the NO Profile settings to what you want, then there re sign in with your profile, there shouldn't be any issues anymore. IF your the only one that really drives your truck then really no profile is needed.

I don't think I have a profile set up.   Or if it's even an option on my truck?  How do you even check for a profile?

When you hit the home button for your display there should be an icon that has either "Profile" or Maybe "Users" Should look like a person of some sort. Usually if you use the same key fob it'll sign you in automatically since you're using that key.

Hmm maybe it's not on the LT's. I haven't noticed it anyway. I'll have to check.  Thanks.

No 'users' or 'profile' on my home screen but I remote started it then got in a couple mins later when I turned it on and went to drive away. It was quiet.  The way I had tried to set it before.  I'll have to check again next time just starting normally and see if it still stays how it was set before.

Yep!  Profiles are more of a pain in the ass than they're worth.  Since I'm basically the only one driving it, I nixxed that whole deal

Damn. Mine seemed to be working. Then started it up and bam loud AF again. Then was good again next time. It seems to have a mind of its own. I always had the same key fob in my pocket each time too.  I'll get this figured out eventually I guess. Otherwise I'll have to mention it when I go for my first oil change.  (On a side note. Do these things still come with first 2 years oil changes for free?  Otherwise I'll do it myself)

Yes. Call the dealer. There is a patch for the 2021. Took about 30 minutes. I did not leave it all day. Seems to be holding altho it is a patch.  1-2 months for the software fix according to my dealer.

Damn.  I ain't got time for the dealer. But it is what it is I guess.  Suppose a visit there will be in my future sooner or later then.  Was hoping to wait til the first oil change(if they are still complimentary for the first few) but it's kind of annoying and the neighbor probly doesn't appreciate it at 5am every morning either.

I logged out of my profile and returned to guest mode.  I went into settings/sounds and turned the start up volume nearly all the way down.  I logged back into my profile and now now no more LOUD start up!

      Valvoline R&P Fuel System Cleaner

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Okay boys and girls I put a bottle of this in Dizzy the oil burning guineapig after a tank between the coil and plug service of the #3 hole and near the end of the first R&P 5W30 attempt. As a note I did a two R&P oil changes back in October of 2025 with little effect. Granted they were 1K mile a shot oil changes so.... Then followed by fourteen  1K mile changes of Mobil 1 Euro 5W30 FS. Also ineffective.    Anyone who has followed the adventures of Dizzy may remember that to put the oil on the full mark of the published nominal 5 quart change I withhold about a cup of oil. That over the last 50K miles the P0420 light has been a frequent flyer, sometimes three of four a day. And that even on 93 octane fuel she registers some KR even in moderate conditions on favorable days on slight inclines. Lastly when giving her a kick in the pants, something done about once a week, she looks like a diesel with the pump turned up. 😬   After one bottle and over the last 500 miles of a 3K mile OCI, of the first oil change I dropped the nastiest looking oil ever in her history. That's saying something as  you will recall I have used AutoRx, HP EC30/40 and a few other harsh solvents in her before including the GM top soak twice. This was syrup. Black stinky, inky syrup but the filter wasn't all that bad.    On the second fill I had to use the entire 5 quarts to reach the full mark. That was unexpected! The ignition KR is completely gone! Even at 99% engine load. MAP is much lower. Level road is now 9.8 instead of 12.5. Fuel economy is remarkably higher and for the first time since her earliest days she will spin to 6500, more than a thousand higher with out laying down dead. Yes, the coil and plug had something to do with that but remember the first 2500 miles after that repair on the first change it was same ole same ole Dizzy. Seems we have top rings that are somewhat functional again. P0420 code only comes on now if run in town for more than an hour of stop and go. On the open road it goes weeks without a incident. Perhaps it is cleaning the cat on the pass through?  Fuel Trims have improved as well. Nothing not to like.    To early to say about oil economy but the changes to date in the operational aspect is remarkable. I can't think of a worse case than Dizzy.... It's already paid for itself in a few tanks of fuel with the mpg improvement.    @OnTheReel, I'd say if the Jeep didn't respond perhaps there wasn't an issue to respond to.    I've run the Red Line SI-1, AMSOIL fuel cleaner, GUMOUT and Techron all in this SUV without any such results. Color me impressed. I'll be running out my supplies of the list mentioned and moving on to the Valvoline R&P Fuel System Cleaner.

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By Homer1959 · Posted

      Hey Chuck !!Thanks for the all the info I'm an old fart and I have everything I need for the oil change at home,minus flexibility .... and I’ve been doing my own oil changes for 40 years. I just didn’t want to end up without a crush washer or with the wrong one in my stash and have to walk to the auto parts store, lol. I climbed under the truck to check the location, and man, it’s going to be the easiest oil change and filter swap in the last 40 years—right up there with my 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander 2.4. No mess, nothing to drip on—just perfect. I’ve got one more free oil change to use, and then that’s it with the dealership!

      2027 3.0l - ordered

      I think this subforum was created for the new generation pickup trucks (2027-) with the 3.0 but I don't think it's a big deal either way. There are probably 2027 model-year specific changes for the SUV's too.   I was just curious if you had issues with your 2025 3.0. I'm still under 10k miles on mine and fingers crossed I don't have thrust bearing issues. I'm guessing not, since you're willing to buy another one! It's a good engine minus one or two manufacturing whoopsies.
