I got another Software Update installation notification this morning. So I did it. I don't know what it actually good it did,  but now my tire pressures are showing low on all fours. I just checked them with a reliable pressure gauge. All tires reading 35psi. The My GMC app shows pressure @ 31psi on all four, and the DIC has no reading at all. I'll go out in a little while  

and see if things straighten out.

Got 2 updates also this week. My tire pressure from Onstar was a bit odd. Said my tires were low and suggested I air them up to over 600psi each, lol. It corrected back to 40psi late in the day

To think as tech moves on, it can only get worse. Vehicles rely on tech to do anything and one simple thing can keep it from driving.

 

The guy I sold me 2002 Silverado to said he is going to sell it since he really doesn't use it.  Only put 7k miles on it since I sold it to him. He told me I could buy it back for what he paid me for it.  So tempting.

New owner here. Can we actually refuse to accept updates. If we do opt not to would we then face persistent nag screens "reminding us" to do so?

If you decline OTA updates, they will stop sending them and you will have to have them done at the dealer moving forward.  Mine has only done 2 updates since I bought it last year.  A third one was hung in a Paused state after it killed my battery.  Once I charged the battery, it seems to have been removed.  Others had the same issue with that update, so GM likely backed it out.

Thanks. I've check a couple of times since I bought the truck in August and there's been no update available. I don't mind getting updates, but I also don't like to be among the first given that software has a bad track record for being right the first time. And I don't want to be a beta tester for GM.

My last update added a ''red zone'' in the trailer view when the turn signal is on in the dash display with a trailer connected. 

I have my trailer measurements added into the 3 trailer configurations in my truck.

My last update showed tire pressure low. Corrected as soon as I drove it. I also received 2 updates within a 3 day period.

The phone app will show update install history and a brief description of what it was for.

      What did you do to your "other" car (aka musclecar) today

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      Even tougher is the 5.0 / 302. That's what this one has.    https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   https://postimg.cc/4n3F3yzY   Just realized I had the airbox removed in the engine pic, lol.

      I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.

      Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.

      Bridgestone vs Goodyear tires?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires.
