so now it's a single out Borla Sportsman XR4, instead of the y pipe dual out, not really loud to me but I like it

Looks and sounds great...any drone? I want to change mine out, the sound of the stock isnt bad, but something about it is off.

Topped off the tank and parked the Denali in the garage. The wife and I are taking a break from work and the cold weather. We traded 8” of snow and single digits for a week of mid to upper 70’s down in Florida.
No wonder so many people move down here during the winter.

Pretty disappointed that there isn't a cheap and clean way to add Bluetooth audio streaming to this thing...
I don't know how clean you need it to be. But I use this all the time:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074Y11C8B/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

They make more compact versions. But I specifically wanted one with an on-off switch since GM keeps the 12V receptacle powered all the time. It simplifies pairing when I get in to go somewhere. And if for some reason I don't drive it for a while, I don't have to worry about battery drain.

I was using this: https://www.amazon.com/Scosche-BTAXS2R-Bluetooth-Handsfree-AUX/dp/B01AWGYOJO

But it died and I can't get one in time for a road trip I am going on.

My next pick would be this: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/isimple-vehicle-bluetooth-adapter-black/6344658.p?skuId=6344658

But my AUX input is up by the tuning knob and there isn't clearance for it without another stupid adapter.

I have this on the way: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HDO66NK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

along with an assortment of adapters and cables to try and make it work. I want to use the switched USB in the console for it and run a small cord to the AUX input. The reviews say it doesn't like to be cold. Well, I live in the arctic.

My beef is that if I need a cord I may as well just use this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Y37YLRZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I added wireless charging to my console lid but it's wimpy anyway and it creates radio static when in use.

GM missed the ball here.

Do you have the XM tuner box up behind the glovebox or is it built into the head unit? Open the glove box and look behind it to the right and see if there's a silver box.

I will have to look. I read that the 2013 models had it built in so I didn't explore that route.

Yeah, my 2012 has it built in. I bought that adapter from Crutchfield about 2 years ago that's supposed to plug into the XM interface and give you Bluetooth streaming, but I couldn't find my XM receiver behind the glovebox, even though Crutchfield techs said it should fit my year/model.

After pulling out the radio and finding out my XM receiver is built into the radio, I returned it to Crutchfield and told them. They refunded my coin and even paid for return shipping!

Denali has been sitting a couple days in the snow. Cleaned it off and snowblowered mine and my neighbors driveways (both about 100-120 feet long). Backed it up a bit to get the area it was parked in and noticed a couple pink spots in the snow near where the front of the motor would be. Looked at where I installed the external trans filter and trans fluid had dripped down onto the front splash shield and then drips off the lower corner of that.

Apparently the one hose clamp going onto the hose barb was loose. Guess the cold weather caused the rubber hose to contract a bit, or whatever, who knows. I tightened it up and wiped off as much of the trans fluid that I could. I'll have to check it later after driving it some.

I did check the fluid level, but the trans temp was only at about 73* and it was at the full cold mark on the dipstick. It's been so cold here the past week, about 0* with wind chills of -15 to -20, the trans temp only gets to about 120* when driving.
