YOU SHOULD GET THE ONE OFF EBAY I LOVE EBAY AND HAVE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT. I BOUGHT A CD PLAYER/DVD/GPS FROM WALMART FOR 800 AND IT WORKS AWESOME!! YOU MIGHT LOOK AT THAT ROUGHT TO.

That radio may not work with your truck...And for 800 bucks you can get a quality aftermarket player. I have an Pioneer AVIC-D3 and my grandmother's 3LT 08 Trailblazer has factory nav, and my Pioneer would kick the crap out of that factory Delphi POS.

Check the eBay sellers other items...he has another GPS up for only 500 as opposed to 800

Thanks But The only thing is that i dont have the option to make that work. That would be one kick ass deal. Thanks

What will it Take to put A factory Navigation in my truck? I no I need a MAP CD AND GPS ANTENNA, Iam looking to Buy one off of the internet(ebay). What will it take to make this work in my truck. will i need to go the dealer For Programing?

Or to make things easy on me, I could go this route. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/03-06-SILVE...5fAudioQ5fVideo

 

 

Thats the part I put in my 04 Avalanche. One question, do you have Bose? I think if you don't the volume won't be very loud with that Nav. You won't have to go to the dealer with that auction because he is wiping out the Vin lock. It will just be plug and play, although it will take a few days for the Nav to learn(mine did anyways because I did not have the VSS wire hooked up). Here's some pics I took when I was removing it before the Av went back from lease.

I had a PAC adapter installed to feed an external amp for a sub woofer. You don't need that.

I sold it to a member on the Avalanche forum.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Most thermostatically controlled ATF systems use a 'wax' pill just like the one in your water thermostat. They work on the expansion volume of the wax and the pill is constructed in such a way as to limit the travel to remain within that range. This means it has an opening temperature often called the 'cracking temperature' and a fully open temperature. For whatever reason oil is designated by it's fully open temperature and water by it's cracking temperature.    Between the two it the "Regulating Temperature" The entire range is about 20 F from closed to open. In your example the lower limit, opening point of 145 F then has a fully open temp of 165 F and a throttling temperature of 155 F.    Thing is, the throttling temperature needs two things to work properly. Enough system load high enough to reach the minimum and a heat sink (cooler/exchanger) large enough to prevent any load applied from exceeding the fully open temperature.    If your system exceeds the fully open temperature it is screaming MORE COOLER.    Here is the silly part of the whole thermostat system where the oil is cooled/heated by the radiator. Nothing is flowing to that system until the oil temperature reaches the cracking temperature unless it is equipped with a minimum flow bypass orifice or a bypass built into the seating surface of the plunger. That system meant to get it up to temp quicker isn't doing a thing until WORK drives if from ambient to cracking temp. One a cold winter day, like zero F, it may never get hotter than about 110 F. Sometimes not even that.    People forget or are young enough to not know that until this millennia transmissions were cooled by the radiator cold tank alone and without a thermostat at all.  In the 50's they weren't even cooled. OEMs learn everything the hard way.    When an OEM tells you the trans "Works best" between 175 F and 220 F it means works best for THEM. The transmission thermostat is fuel play. If you watch you trans temps like I do you will learn that it may take a hundred miles if you are not towing and not driving more than say 55-60 mph on a zero F day to even reach 120 F and it might sit there all day if it's colder. Yet if functions perfectly over about 100 F. It may need to get a bit warmer for the fuel and spark maps to go without an multiplier.    Worry more about too hot. Use a cooler large enough to put that thermostat in range.

      Around 2008 if memory serves they took sulfur out. That was when diesel went up.

      Gas Prices

      By richard wysong · Posted

      Question for you Grumpy, why is diesel so much more than gasoline? Seems to me that it may be slightly a little less refined than gas and it doesn't have 10% alcohol which presumably lowers the price of gas

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      Thanks, so being a different beast altogether, anyone know what the "optimal" temp is for the 10L80/90 for proper shifting?

      Some Assembly is Required

      How many years have I pointed out every point in that link to the folks here and been avalanched with criticisms and outright hostilities at times? I ran counter to even the great CUSTOMBOSS and Lake Speed Jr and the half dozen experts on YouTube and in the final.....GM, Physics (Stribeck) backs that Grumpy old Bear.    Honestly, I never said a thing engineering hadn't studied silly and laid in concrete during WWII. But I'm old, the information is old and yet, the Laws of Physics are eternal.    Okay there is one exception. I vehemently disagree with their use of the word 'tolerances' when what it meant is "clearance".   The clearance is the distance between two objects. The tolerance is the degree of acceptable variation permitted in that clearance. I.E., piston to bore clearance is 0.004" with a tolerance of +/- .0002" so the clearance is in specification if it lies between 0.0038" and 0.0042". Cutting that 'tolerance in half has ZERO impact on lubrication requirements. Makes for more difficulty in manufacturing.  But a tighter clearance 'MAY'. Depends on finish. Anyway....   It's one of those statements made by people to make themselves look smarter than they are to convince people who are as un-enlighten as they seem to manipulate their behaviors. But hey, the blind leading the blind puts them both in the pit.
