I just picked up my Denali, and man do I miss my old SLT stereo.  The new one has the Bose Premium Sound, but it lacks the bass of my '19 SLT.  Where is the subwoofer located for the '22?

You have a radio right mjones? Then you have an antenna. It's built into the satellite antenna on the roof.

Just the Sirius antenna in the shark fin on the top of the truck. I do not have a terrestrial radio antenna. Excuse me for not being more specific for your liking.

People still listen to the regular radio? With IHeartRadio, Pandora, Amazon music my radio is just a sound system. My phone is my radio. Before that I used my iPods. Before that CDs, cassettes, 8 trac

I'm almost 100% positive. There is rumors of one in the AT4x and Denali Ultimate, but no confirmation.

Yes, there is a sub with all BOSE.  The AT4x and Denali Ultimate get some more speakers. Someone had posted radio info from GM on this not long ago, can't find it.   As for the sound quality, I also came from a 2019 BOSE to the new 2022 refresh BOSE.  I agree, the 2019 was better.  A few things... make sure if you are listening via your bluetooth phone, and android auto be sure you adjust the EQ on your phone. Also,  I use YouTube music for everything. I found that listening to YouTube music direct from the build in truck app OS, vs YouTube music via my phone (android auto) the sound quality is much better going directly with the truck OS YouTube music.

Care to share a picture of it or proof of it's location? I've been under the console of my 2022 LTZ refresh with Bose and there isn't a sub there. I have the UQA RPO code on my truck.

I'd like to know where the 7th speaker is located on the UQA option. I don't have a 7th speaker in my refresh LTZ with the UQA option.

 

Crutchfield doesn't show the Bose trucks having a 7th speaker. However, they do show the Denali Ultimate and AT4x having multiple other speakers including in the a-pillar.s

Can't help you with location, but the chev' order guide has the same description wording for UQA as the sierra.

Then it is wrong. There are not 7 speakers.

I'd guess Crutchfield is wrong and GM is right....

Nope. I've had my 2022 refresh LTZ with UQA Bose completely tore apart. There is not a 7th speaker.

Did you remove the console?

 

 

Yup, had the console out of the truck and no speaker under it.

Could it be under the dash?

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.
