    Album art

    I have a 2016, mine shows album art on MP3 files on my USB drive. In terms of XM radio, that would be a no (at least in mine). I mostly use my thumb drive for audio, so all my files have embedded album art in the files so that when the radio plays the file, it shows up on the center screen or...

    Wireless charging module update, GM part number 84526978 (plug/play harness)

    It goes from 1 coil to 3 to expand wireless fields to charge it. There are probably other minor things, but that seems to be the biggie.

    Anyone having a problem with Android Auto with the latest update?

    I have, way beyond that, it has something to do with the power down hook in the gmc infotainment system, they haven't don't appear interested in correcting it. Power save was one of the first things I did just to get it to navigate, let alone reconnect.

    Anyone having a problem with Android Auto with the latest update?

    I have, but you're not going to like the answer..... a buddy of mine had an iPhone 5s that he just gave me (about 9 months ago) and I activated it on my Sprint plan as another "bill" but using CarPlay over Android Auto has been a leaps and bounds venture. I don't run into this disconnection...

    2017 Yukon XL 2nd row seat rattle

    I had to have the dealer replace the latch under warranty. Have it changed out....they have newer parts that solve the problem.

    SiriusXM Reception Blocked

    My service adviser at Tasca said it is so common that new trucks on the lot leak right off the truck....the gasket is "split" by design and causes the leak to happen....took mine 23 months...but still happened...replace it under warranty and move on. Good luck.

    2016 Yukon SLE > Adding factory wireless charging?

    I would then have to turn on GPS, turn off battery saver for UBS transactions to work, have a wire coming out of the center console.....etc etc....it's a hassle.

    2016 Yukon SLE > Adding factory wireless charging?

    There are apps that do call and text forwarding, so with a simple macro, a one button press routes my main phone directly to the car phone number. When i'm out, the app reverses the process. I will eventually be upgrading to the IO6, but for now, this works well for my needs.

    2016 Yukon SLE > Adding factory wireless charging?

    Why do we care? Because not everyone use things the same way you'd expect. I have a dedicated phone that is attached to USB all the time for nav, but my regular phone on my hip or my wifes phone would do nicely to get a minor charge when put on the mat......YMMV

    Best plastic interior removal tools?

    Anyone have a recommendation via amazon on what the best tool set is to remove things like the radio bezel or wireless charger plastic housing? I'm considering buying a set of plastic bezel tools, just looking for opinions from those who used them what the best set is to buy. Thanks, Chris

    2016 Yukon SLE > Adding factory wireless charging?

    I plan to try to get the needed parts over the summer. I have the full service manuals for my truck, just one of those things that I can't get to soon, but at least it seems like it will work with acquiring the right parts 2018 and forward > and seems like the newer charging mat to allow for...

    2016 Yukon SLE > Adding factory wireless charging?

    So what did you ask for when you were looking for the new wire harness? An 18 harness is an exact match for a 17? Did the new harness have extra connectors that didn't connect to anything because it had other features that your truck my not have had? Any pics of where the BCM harness location...

    2016 Yukon SLE > Adding factory wireless charging?

    I am looking at an SLT harness that has it. Replacing the harness is the only way to do it, besides tapping the lighter plug. I'm looking to have the radio show the charge icon when its active that is a trigger line in the harness to the HMI unit.

    Backup camera not working!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If it's under warranty, beat up the dealer until they fix it right.... my '16 has been in the shop more times that I choose to admit, but I'll be damned if I will be a penny for any repair when the onus is on them to make it right for 3yr/36... With the amount of gear in these cars, make sure...

    wireless charger

    There is a HUGE thread about this going on in another forum with a possible solution. It appears GM has rushed this to market and the '17 down use a single coil design and the new '18+ have a 3 coil design. This fixes the Samsung 8 and iPhone X issues, but also fixes hard to charge phones also...

    Haptic Motor Failure

    I don't have this system, but driven an SLT with it. Few questions, first of all, what would cause the wire to break like that? It looks like it was sheered in half!? The Autel your using, what model is that and what did it cost? I'm looking for something for my '16 Yukon. Not entirely sure...

    Old phone as dedicated GPS with a "twist" question

    I saw your product and I agree it does almost everything, but losing the touch screen for nav when it's mirroring Waze is kind of a deal breaker. I wish there was some way to let the old phone mirror the active one, but by all accounts it's illegal and falls under phone tapping...... LOL...

    2016 Yukon SLE > Adding factory wireless charging?

    How do you project Google maps while inductive charging?? Or are you just using it on the phone screen while it wirelessly charges to see the net result you mention?

    Old phone as dedicated GPS with a "twist" question

    Well the old is needed for the mapping and android auto, the maps are to be handled by the old phone so I don't have to take the new phone off the hip and in and out of the car. So in that config, it would all work, minus projection mapping of Waze/Google Maps. Last time I verified...

    Old phone as dedicated GPS with a "twist" question

    I plugged in my old phone via usb, enabled Bluetooth tethering on my active phone, and everything works great......minus being able to have incoming phone calls be handled by the truck. If I bought something like this...

    Old phone as dedicated GPS with a "twist" question

    Well the older phone will be connected via the usb cable, so doesn't that disconnect the active phone from the car?? Or can the USB work to the screen and the bluetooth from active work as a connected device......hmm.....I think I know where your going, I'll give it a try.
