Hello just took delivery of a new 2023 AT4X and of course it was made without the wireless charging. I would like to think that I can go ahead and just order the parts and install it myself. My questions are:

1. Is there a module that needs to be programmed to the truck to get it to work?

2. Can someone point me in the right direction to get the part numbers that I need?

 

Thanks for any help.

I think it's pretty stupid or greedy of GM/GMC removing the tray.  The 2022 refresh has the tray, Not sure what trim level are getting the tray on the 2023's as I've seen 2023 High Country having the

There's no tray in the 2023s because the wireless charging is underneath the armrest, right below the center console open button. IMO, this is a much better place for it because it keeps the phone eas

Judging from the fact they are not offering a later retrofit, its likely not a simple plug an play feature that adding a chip will fix.  Parts for new vehicles are in very limited supply. Even if you could add this feature, chances are you could NOT buy the parts to do it.

Check with boost auto parts. I know they make a kit for up to the 22' year.  From what i know the stock charge pads are not strong at all. The aftermarket should have fast charge.

Thanks all.

 

@elcamino I was thinking that or maybe that they didn't want to pay for the labor for such a minor thing that some people don't care for anyways.

 

@John F. Thanks I will check them out. I am not sure if it says up to 2022 because of the "Limited" trucks that were at the beginning of the year.

If you're willing to do it yourself, you can always just buy one of any million wireless charging pads and retrofit it yourself. That being said, I don't use wireless charging for a variety of reasons. If you religiously upgrade, you won't be harmed by it. But wireless charging generates a lot of heat and will shorten your battery life over time. I'm not one of those "don't be lazy" people who constantly whines because people enjoy modern conveniences (like some here), but this is one of those that I prefer to just plug up when I get in. I might be one of the few here.

Boost makes some quality stuff. I have the 22 "limited"   the pad goes into the center armrest and looks pretty seemless.( only seen some videos of it) but have ordered a few things from them that work well.

"Background

Electromagnetic pollution cannot be ignored. Long-term low-dose electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure can cause central nervous system dysfunction without effective prevention.

Conclusions

EMF exposure not only led to depression-like neurobehavioral disorders, but also to gut microbiota imbalance. HA alleviated the depression features caused by EMF exposure. Based on the analysis of gut microbiota associated with serum metabolites, we speculated that gut microbiota might play a vital role in the cross-tolerance provided by HA."

I don't know if I'd want the fast charging one.. it literally cooks my phone!

Over heating doesn't seem to be an issue because GM must have routed the AC through that part of the truck.  When I  pick up the phone it is actually cool. 

Issues that I have had is sometimes it doesn't work through my  phone cover. Works very good on my newest phone.

I'm not sure what this has/had to do with what I posted? This was about phone battery health.

Boost doesn't make one yet for the 22-23 refreshed interior yet. It looks like 404parts have a kit but they are sold out.

Based on what they have on their website, its what I was expecting that it will be plug and play and that GM just didn't want to pay the dealers labor to retrofit the charger because it would be too much for such a small non safety feature.

Aren't the interiors the same? I mean besides the dash. The center console should be the same and as long as you have usb or power on the back behind the console it should be exactly the same. https://boostautoparts.com/products/2019-newer-gm-charging

Look under fitment. It shows 22 "refreshed" for GMC and Chevy as available.

there's a vent  duct that blows cool air from below. not sure if its actually air conditioned or just ventilation, but either way, they did take steps to deal with heat.

 

I've never used my wireless charger either, the location just isn't convenient for me and need to plug in for android auto anyway.

Isn't the cooling just radiant cooling? The duct is actually for the rear console vents for the back seats. Wouldn't it heat up when the heater is on?

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.

      Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
