    My 2025 rattles like it’s coming apart

    There is some talk of loose microphones above the headliner. Not sure if that's what you're hearing.

    Crackling sound at top of driver's side window

    What Rit333 said. I had the plastic on the pillar between doors on driver side keep coming loose. I thought it was due to my fat arse rubbing against it. I noticed that some of the clips were deformed, as if they were never installed properly at the factory. Showed the dealer, on went a new...

    Front camera

    Unless by front camera he means the one for FCA and LKA - that would be at the top middle of the windshield behind the rear view mirror (from driver seat perspective). If he has a camera in the front grill, he would also have one on each outside rear view mirror for HD Surround. Besides...

    2022 heating doesn’t seem accurate

    I have no other ideas, but can say that this year I installed the lower grill cover and it may have helped slightly, but not that much. We didn't get any -25 to -30 days this winter, that's when the problem was the worst. Since the lower cover didn't help much, I hope it helps prevent the...

    Hello from Waco, Texas.

    Welcome. I just did some simple mods, all in keeping with the red RS theme. Red outline cup holder/storage area inserts. Painted the brake calipers red (they chip easily, should have gone with caliper covers), painted the engine cover red to give the engine bay a little pop. Now that the...

    Offline navigation on newer models

    I was under the impression that the 2025 used Google maps. Google maps on my smartphone has offline maps you can download before you start a trip. I have done this a few times when going through or into poor reception areas, Android Auto then used the offline map in the car. HTH

    DIiscovered an unexpected feature...

    Another feature of Google maps is that it marks and sounds a tone to alert you of photo radar cameras. I would guess there may be some law that prevents them from warning to the same level as accidents or other events. These cameras are increasingly common in Canada, keep this in mind of...

    Brake wear sensor percentage

    I can't answer your question, but wanted to mention that I saw that there is an issue with false brake pad warnings on either Terrain or Nox, or both. Supposedly there is a software update to correct this. There was no identifying number given, but a little research could turn this up if you...

    BMS

    If you got an aftermarket part, return it and get OEM. These things are finicky.

    2013 Paint

    this can't be normal, base on my limited knowledge of auto production lines, you would think it would be impossible to have skipped the primer dip. I would think it is more related to lack of or improper metal prep before the primer was applied. I wonder what would happen if you sent GM this...

    How To Edit Driver Display?

    I have some reservation about all these huge displays and numerous screens and settings. This has to be distracting. I know i am old and cranky, but I am also a tech guy and love the new tech in the cars. There has to be a happy medium somewhere .....

    Paint code 2022

    Mine is same color. I got some touch up paint from the dealer, I will check for the part #. Where the code is in the car I am unsure, but i "think" it is usually on a sticker somewhere in the rear of the car, under the spare tire cover.

    Bms

    Not that I have heard of, but no one I've heard of has yet replaced a battery on a 2025. Nor 2024 or 2023 that I recall. There is no mention of needing a scan tool when replacing the battery in the manual. From my 2022 manual: Battery Load Management The vehicle has Electric Power Management...
