Out of warranty is out of warranty period. Once they enter your mileage it will show out of warranty in there system and will not alter the mileage to get it covered or the dealer will have big issues with GM.

A) The slated time allotted for this update appears to be two hours based on the conversation I had with the Service Writer when I made my appointment. B) The length of time indicated is apparent

We've done a bunch of these.  Its 1.5-2.5 hours depending on internet connection, GM servers and how busy they are, etc.     Big thing is the order the steps are done in.  Radio update is ty

I will keep everyone posted. I'm going in tomorrow for a oil change (doing that while still under warranty then will do them myself at home) and to have the recall work performed.

this should be an OTA update, but GM had to change it to dealer updates after bricking trucks the last time they pushed it OTA. Suddenly their incompetence is my problem. This would also be the third time I’ve taken it to the dealership because of radio issues that have yet to be resolved.

GM appears to have run a successful update. My truck just received the OTA update 25-250552 for connectivity issues and onstar corrections as listed at https://static.oemdtc.com/NHTSA-PDFs/MC-11021070-0001.pdf. It installed successfully after like 5 attempts. I don't pay for onstar and when it was ready to install the update, it dropped the bluetooth which in turn made my phones automatic trigger for mobile hotspot turn off so the update would not download (despite it being set to download in the background at all times). I had to pair my truck up to my home WiFi and let it update then it went through successfully.

 

I still don't have the update the newer 2024+ have for the HVAC afterblow but I noticed my blower will kick on approximately 10-15 minutes after shut down when I was sitting inside the cab to dry out the evaporator core. I did also try to use my friends scan tool to set the afterblow feature to enabled so it might be working from that feature. Time will tell though.

OTA updates -should- be able to download without WiFi or an OnStar subscription... I've never used either in my Silverado OR my Camaro for updates over the years. As long as your vehicle has decent connection from the satellites and a 4G/5G signal around you, it should be able to download the updates through one/both of those.

      Vehicle Payments

      This is interesting. My quote tagged here is different from my original quote. After I’m driving them longer. That isn’t me. I don’t talk that way. I definitely wouldn’t express myself that way. Interesting.

      What have you done to your K2 today?

      By UrbanRage · Posted

      I have the same running boards on my truck and I do agree they are bulky. I also find myself stepping over them when getting in and out of the truck. Besides providing protection to the rocker panels, they aren't very useful.  I will be replacing them soon with the Amp Powersteps.

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.
