    New Takeoff Painted 2014 Sierra Mirror Caps

    I know this is an old thread but wondered if you had ever sold any of these? I'm looking for a set of Onyx Black caps. Door handles too if anyone has them.

    iphone with usb port

    Apple just released iOS 4.2 today and I immediately updated my 3GS. All is back to normal now regarding the USB connection and playback. Charging is still not supported but as long as I can play music I could care less about charging at this point.

    iphone with usb port

    Mine is the unit with the rear seat entertainment (DVD) but no NAV. The fix (firmware update) I got back in April was supposedly before it was released to the public but I'm guessing it eventually made its way to the new units. I know when I first started working on this issue in December of...

    Strange thing is 4.1 works fine on the 2nd gen touch I have. My kids both have the 4th gen Touch and they have the same problem as my 3GS. Very inconsistent across the products.

    LTZ: Thanks. Looks like the 2011's are shipping with the same firmware mine has. Good to see I've not missed out on any updates. It'll save me a trip to the dealer. Holding out for 4.2 to hit. If that doesn't work I'll just go back to either my Nano or 2nd gen Touch with 4.1 that...

    I'd guess by Apple's track record we'll see the live version of 4.2 in a week to 10 days and I'll do the update (fingers crossed). Can anyone with a late 2010 or early 2011 model connect via USB and let me know what version of firmware you are showing under GM? Reason I ask is that I was told...

    Good stuff here LTZ. I was thinking of taking my 3GS back to 4.0.2 and may still look for a way to do just that if the 4.2 updated doesn't fix this problem. Hopefully your contact at Apple will work some magic but I have to say I'll always be a bit scared to update the OS unless they can figure...

    I tried calling the service manager I had been working with on this just to find out he's no longer there. I suppose my next option is to call GM's customer service number and complain. I'm not standing for it any more.

    iphone with usb port

    Only update I have is that after updating my 3GS to iOS 4.1 I now get about 30 seconds of playback before it stops. Track info still shows on the head unit, the iPhone shows the play > arrow but no sound. I've never been so frustrated with a device and vehicle in my entire life. Looking to...

    iphone with usb port

    Nothing of any Earth shattering news here other than to say that I emailed the dealer to see if they had heard anything further from engineering on this and they responded saying they had not heard a thing. I'm not sure if that means they're working on it, have released the "fix" that I got to...

    Nothing here. Figured I'd give them 30 days and send them an email. Will report back if I hear anything.

    Greg: Yep, save yourself the trouble right now. I've already had all that done, even had the entire console and seats out replacing a wiring harness just to find out that it's a firmware issue as I told them it was in the first place. Now they just have to get it right. As soon as I hear back...

    iphone with usb port

    Finally had a chance to take the Sierra to the dealer for the update. There's good news and bad news. The good news - The update mostly fixes the popping noise. I can plug the iPhone in and play songs or podcasts, skip from one song to the next all without hearing the popping. So far I've gone...

    iphone with usb port

    Apparently GM now has a fix that they are sending the service manager I've been dealing with. I've been told that it's not yet available to everyone but they are sending it to him to update my radio. Looks like I'll be the Guinnie pig. Fine by me as long as it gets fixed. He's supposed to...

    iphone with usb port

    Still no fix but I'm glad to see other getting fed up with this. I believe in order to get it resolved it's going to take everyone who has the problem to take it up with the service manager. If GM has enough calls on it maybe, just maybe they will do something. I emailed the service manager...

    iphone with usb port

    I've found that disconnecting and reconnecting a couple of times my phone will charge. Sometimes it will quit charging but no matter if it charges or not I still have the issue with popping during playback. Had GM done this head unit correctly it should adjust the voltage for whatever device is...

    iphone with usb port

    Mine seems to work ok with a flash drive and mp3's. I just plug it in and it plays showing USB on the screen. Do you have your mp3's in folders? Is there anything else on the drive such as pictures or software. I'm not sure if this makes a difference but are you using a Mac or PC to put the...

    iphone with usb port

    Good to hear that the thumb drive works. If it were me, I'd make sure the dealer is aware of the iPod issue when/if you need to take it in for service. Drives me nuts to spend 40-50K on a vehicle that has problems connecting to the most popular music device ever. By the way, I tried...

    iphone with usb port

    I agree. It's very annoying. I held off purchasing a couple of different 2009's since I'd heard about the USB being in the 2010's just to find out it didn't work. It's interesting that yours is not giving an error message. There may be another problem as well as the known issue with the Nav...

    iphone with usb port

    You're correct that the only USB connection is in the console. I've had the same issue when connecting an iPod Touch and the iPhone. Sometimes it will connect and other times it will not. I've also had the same problem with two different Nano's. The radio is supposed to detect when you connect a...

    iphone with usb port

    Received what I would call a bit of good news today. The service manager called me this afternoon to let me know that he had talked to GM today. They informed him that they connected (he said it took at least 15 tries for it to connect) an iPhone today and experienced the popping noise as well...

    Had a chance to go to the dealer Friday to do what we knew wouldn't work which was replace the harness containing the USB cable. This entailed removing both front seats and the console so that we could get to the underside of the console to remove the existing harness. As suspected, when we...

    Well, GM's adding a USB port to this head unit is a utter failure. Today I tried using a 2nd and 3rd generation iPod Nano and got the same popping noise. The dealer called this week to tell me that the cable harness arrived but it will be a week or so before I can take it in to show them it's...

    I know what you mean. I thought for the last month that I was losing my mind and although sorry you're having the same problem I was glad to read about it. Let us know how you make out with it and I'll do the same.

    iphone with usb port

    My experience is that the units that do not have DVD work fine. Its the units that are NON-Nav but have DVD are having the problems. The dealer in my case swapped mine for a new unit and we had the same problem but when we tried a NON-Nav unit in my truck it worked fine. I also know there's a...
