You know how when you start a newer GM, it says "Driver 1" or "Driver 2" where the odometer is?

 

ON our new 2004 Yukon, it once said Driver 1 and now it says Driver 2. And I know you can do some prgramming so that Driver 1 has the seats, outside mirrors and radio presets programmed to his/her liking and you can program different settings for Driver 2.

 

It is not an SLT or LT so it does not have the Memory 1/2 buttons on the driver's door so......

 

How do I do this?

It's all controlled through the Driver Information Center (DIC). To use this feature fully you must have steering wheel audio controls and electric seat positioning controls.

I have a 2004 Yukon also, and I'm not sure about the different programs. However, the driver 1 or driver 2 is related to which remote you use to open the door. If you use one remote one day, and another the next, that's why it's changing. It's labeled on the remotes that I got from the dealer.

 

Hope it helps.

I used each remote to start it and it said "Driver 2" for each remote/key used.

 

But I did not unlock the doors with each key as the car was already unlocked, so maybe you have to actually use the remote to unlock the doors.

 

But from what y'all are telling me, I can't change settings for each driver anyways?

well some you can't, but it will change your radio presets. Yes you have to press the unlock on the remote to get to that setting.

You can set things like radio presets, mirror locations, mirror curb feature, a/c controls, etc. It is some neat stuff. It will even remember the CD track you were listening to when you shut off the truck, even if you don't use your remote until like a week later.

I believe Driver 1 versus Driver 2 will come up based on what key is put in the ignition not what remote is used to unlock the door. Although, that is likely to still be the same. You will need steering wheel mounted controls to change settings from what they are now.

the keys aren't coded or anything to tell the computer which driver it is. That is why the fobs are numbered 1 and 2 and when you press unlock on the particular fob it automatically uses that drivers settings. Like said before. Even if you don't have the steering wheel controls, it still changes the radio presets and to what you were listening to last. And with auto climate control returns the ac to last setting.

      Can anyone decode a VIN to determine if this truck has had emissions issues or a recall?

      By cherryred21duramax · Posted

      Thanks @newdude, guess I'll keep looking.  Test driving so many trucks that have obvious things broken, I'm thinking "if they couldn't even be bothered to fix the power seat," what else is broken".   Just drove a 2021 where the power seat motor was grinding/binding and wouldn't do anything but make a terrible sound.   An owner that puts dents on the bumper, doesn't fix a seat motor, and had spotty service intervals (along with missing major services) doesn't give me the best of confidence.   Amazed at the number of people that will finance a $60k+ truck, run it into the ground, then trade with a loan balance (every single one had "loan/lien reported" on the CARFAX at the last year of registration).

      Not true! I have been runing them since 2006 F250! suspension component that works as a sway bar, a traction bar, and a helper spring points directly to the RoadActive Suspension (RAS) kit. Works as a sway bar, a traction bar, and a helper spring.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Here's a starter kit:    CC Jensen, a Danish oil testing Concern gives us the following guidelines:   ISO 14/12/10 Very Clean Oil ISO 16/14/11 Clean Oil ISO 17/15/12 Lightly Contaminated ISO 19/17/14 New Oil ISO 22/20/17 Very Contaminated and not suitable for any service.   In addition CC Jensen gives a table showing how engine life is increased by cleaning up the oil. For example cleaning the oil from 19/17/14 to 13/11/8 will extend motor life by a factor of 6X.   But even cleaning it two “Life Extension Classes” will double motor life. So perhaps giving those classes would be useful:   21/19/16 20/18/15 19/17/14 18/16/13 17/15/12 16/14/11 15/13/10 14/12/9 13/11/8   *************************************   https://testoil.com/program-management/setting-iso-cleanliness-targets/   Third paragraph from the bottom will give a starting point.    Your next question should be, okay 10um at what Beta ratio and the answer is in the graph Beta 75.   Then the next question is what is your chosen filters profile? (Purolator PL series below) The red dot is Beta 75. This was the information I obtained from MANN a few years ago. So the best filters, Purolator One, AMSOIL EA, FRAM Ultra, Royal Purple, Bosch Premium should get a doubling engine life over filters like Purolator L, any service filter from any quick lube, WIX, NAPA, STP, Mobil 1, Purolator BOSS.    And as noted by CC Jensen a 2-5 micron @ Beta 200 bypass system has the capability of a six fold improvement. AMSOIL has such a system as does Donaldson.       Now having said all that testing is the touchstone. Test the oil NEW and test it with your chosen filter. Then test over milage. Do the work, get the result. But understand this in NOT absolute BECAUSE this is one factor in isolation.   Example:    A valve spring supplier can state that with cam X and a valve train of Y grams the valves will not float to 7K rpm. is that true if the builder choose a system 20 grams over limit? Common sense must be used and limits understood.

      This doesn't look like a GM truck. Not needed on a HD truck

      It varies a ton around me. Some places are still at $5.00 or higher and others are way down into the $4's.   Offroad diesel was $4.02 at the one station I passed today.
