    Front Door Speaker Headache

    CarToys finally got this figured out. Apparently there was a bad wire between the driver woofer and tweeter. It took a little extra time to diagnose b/c the assumption was it was module related b/c it was the driver door. I learned there is a module between the amp and the speakers that inserts...

    Front Door Speaker Headache

    The speaker in my driver door is out. Was thinking it was blown, so bought an OEM replacement off Amazon, installed it last night and that one doesn’t work either. Is the next step to take out the console and check the amp? Are there any other quick checks I can do first? I hear getting to the...

    Radio Oddities

    Really? No one experiencing either issue? I talked to one of the technicians at a local dealership and they thought these issues were weird too. Said they don’t push out updates OTA and doesn’t know why either issue would happen. The only other person I’ve talked to about this said he...

    Radio Oddities

    I have a 2013 Denali with Bose & navigation and have always had this oddity where after starting the car, the radio doesn’t recognize the last radio station I was listening to was a preset station. It would stay on the last played station, but not highlight it in the list of stations across the...

    Cargo Light

    Thanks dougs. Took in in and learned a wire had been disconnected. As you mentioned, the lights should come on with other overhead lights when doors are opened

    Cargo Light

    Here’s a picture of what I think are LEDs in the cargo area. Can someone confirm they are and whether they come on when the tailgate is open? I can’t figure them out. Thanks

    Cargo Light

    My wife has a ‘17 XL and the cargo area is really dark at night. It looks like there are 3 LED bulbs in the ceiling above the cargo area, but I can’t get them to turn on. Anyone know how they work? Is there an override somewhere? If they are tied to the other dome lights (which work when I open...

    Do many people use the GM Remote App

    I use it to share addresses with the in-dash nav. It's easier to find destinations in a phone (especially if you can copy them from a message) and send them to your dash using the app (vs. looking them up in-dash). My 2013 has 5 years free (as noted above) and it's unlikely I'll subscribe after...

    2015 vs. 2016 Intellilink

    Anyone know/understand the differences between intellilink in 2015 vs. 2016? CarPlay is the easy answer, but I understand there were updates to the processor and also navigation and mapping. Are these differences enough to push me away from 2015 Denalis and only look at 2016s? I’m aware of the...

    Autoride & Leveling Kit

    The leveling kit would raise the front of the vehicle about 2" so the gap between the tire and the top of the wheel well is the same as the back. This gives a little more ground clearance and helps with tire rub (if experienced). Although I admit I'm most interested in it because I think it...

    Autoride & Leveling Kit

    I was contemplating putting a leveling kit on my 2013 Yukon Denali, but understand it has autoride. You can obviously tell the front end is low when parked - does autoride level the car while I'm driving such that I don't need the kit? Will the kit mess with my autoride? Thanks

    Suspension Squeak/Chirp

    I have a squeak/chirp in my 2013 Yukon Denali that comes out every fall when the weather gets a little cooler and stays until the hot TX sun comes back out in the spring. It's loudest when I first start my car, but usually goes away after driving for a few minutes. It has a metal-on-metal, or...

    Best place to buy gmpp?

    Greg Bell (bellgmpp.com) quoted me $1,815 and $1,525. Problem is I took poor notes so I don't remember what the difference was in the 2 plans or how far the coverage goes out. I know there was also a $100 processing fee and $0 deductible. Also know that I had to sign up in the first year or 12k...

    Leave iPod plugged in at all times?

    Any risk in doing this? Will it drain the car battery? Will it burn up the iPod? I just bought a 2013 Denali and plugged an old iPod Nano into the USB port in the center console. I left it plugged in around the clock and the iPod died about a week later. Not sure if it's b/c it was an old iPod...

    Thinking about a 2013 Denali

    Thanks for the suggestions. I've already closed on the house. so it shouldn't matter. However, if it did, the swap would reduce my payment/loan balance, so you would think the mortgage lender would like it. Good to hear history does not suggest there are expected repairs hitting at routine...

    Thinking about a 2013 Denali

    I have a 2016 Tahoe LTZ w11k miles on it, but contemplating downgrading to a 2013 Denali with 86k miles on it. We are moving into a new house, so trying to save some money. Anything I should look out for before buying it? Any common maintenance issues around that mileage level? Last thing I need...

    2016 Denali Power Lift Gate Issues

    I had the same issue on my '16 Tahoe ... ended up being a loose wire. They found it pretty quickly, was covered under warranty. I think they also replaced one of the hydraulics, although not sure if that was necessary.

    Radio Software Issues???

    Anyone having an issue with the radio "favorite" buttons on the back left side of the steering wheel? I feel like the stations jump around quite a bit when I use them. For example, if I'm listening to my 5th station and start pushing the button to move to 6, 7, 8, etc., it might start back at my...

    Weathertech for 2016 Denali XL

    I ordered this and it fits my 2016 great. Husky wouldn't guarantee it would fit a 2016 (just a 2015), but I've had no issues. Like that it covers the space b/t the 2 bucket seats. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KTP3VC0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00

    Carplay/Pandora

    Just learned from a GM tech that Infotainment systems that are in 2016 GM vehicles do not support wireless CarPlay (only wired), despite the fact that iOS 9 does support wireless CarPlay. The tech seemed to think it could be fixed with a software update should GM choose to pursue it, but...

    Carplay/Pandora

    Anyone know anything about whether Carplay will ever work wirelessly with 2016s? There's been lots of talk that Apple was rolling out wireless connectivity with iOS 9, but I didn't see any mention of it when I updated the software on my phone yesterday. My 2016 Tahoe still requires wired...
