SQOD Squad - Stupid Question Of the Day (38 Viewers)

[gaijin]

It's under climate settings called "efficient climate mode" or something close to that. Sorry for not being super accurate, my 200 is a couple states over right now.

Sorry, no joy.

All I could find similar to what you are talking about is under Setup>Vehicle>Vehicle Customization>Climate Settings only option after that is "Auto A/C Mode ON/OFF." No matter whether set to ON or OFF, Recirc automatically defaults to On at startup if there is a significant difference between outside temp and set temp.

Any more details you could share after you reunite with your 200 would be appreciated.

TIA

I have been running DH Platinums for years with no issues. I now have one DH and One Odyssey since they dont make the DH anymore

4WP ships them for free so I had it the next day.

This has been going on for years. Every time I crank my '97 LX, the climate control comes on as recirculated - no matter what setting the truck was turned off under. Seems that Mr. T has a track record...

Does the Milage graph under Info, work for others? On my LC 2014, it always shows the same, even if I "Clear". Is there something I need to do to turn this on?

Im looking for the part number or place to buy the little plastic tab that pops out on center shift panel which covers the mechanism to manually shift gears when vehicle is off. This is for 2016+ models. Mine broke the first time I popped it off.

I was never able to get mine to work, so I gave up. Too depressing to look at anyway haha...

 

[Eisbaer]

Thanks for the reply @619TOY. I was hoping the chart would drive me to re-gear sooner. Longer trips usually involve towing.

Call the dealership. It's a "special order" item. I had to replace mine as well.

You need to reset the average fuel economy from the steering wheel. Hit DISP on the steering wheel until you get to the average fuel economy page. Once there, push and hold DISP until it is reset. Once this is accomplished, the fuel economy "past record" will now reflect this information.

I hope this helps!

Keep in mind if you have larger than stock tires the readings will not be totally accurate.

Mine works, I reset my avg before towing and longer trips and today I got ....8.7 mpg. Lol. But to be fair, I had a lead foot today and I still get better mpg around town than the 13' Sierra 1500 I had. Hwy isnt as great but not terrible, however, the LC is AWD and in a class by itself.

I'm happy to pay the extra money in gas than repairs. At 65k and being babied since new, my Sierra's natural tendencies came out and cost me over 5k in repairs due to manufacturers desire to make more money from me.

mine just aways displays todays mpg?

 

[nuclearn8]

Since the 2018 is likely to be unchanged mechanically... anyone have any idea on available colors? Hoping green makes a comeback to the lineup in CONUS

Have you tried resetting using the DISP button on the steering wheel? When I press that button while on the info screen, it goes to zero then adjusts per your driving. You don't need to clear it on the screen.

 

[RET2]

Let me try that, I know it clears the one on the instrument cluster but I'll watch and see what the center display does or doesn't do. Thanks

My auto ac started coming on every time I start the truck most recently and engine revs much higher than normal. It then shuts off several seconds later... whats going on. What have i done? Appreciate any thoughts.

Edit. Seems the rear button comes on by itself as well at start, sometimes, not as "regular" as the auto bottom

Per @gaijin above, auto climate in system panel is set to off.

Thanks

Another one....Seems the reverse beep, when you shift to reverse, no longer works either. Wife brought this up, I hadn't noticed, Seems she is right.

For back ground on these two things, the reverse beep and the above ac thing, the only thing different vs her going to work and round town every day is approximately 150 miles of forest and Indian roads over the last week. Some pretty rough, others forest road style and at a good clip, so washboard and lotsa dust. Keying this from our base camp.

2 days left of similar business. Reckon if this is the biggest headache, I'm doing alright.

Thanks again

If you look at the dates on my graph in pic, you'll see that there was a span that I didn't reset it. So every time you want new data, you must reset it via the DISP button. HTH

Edit: When resetting Via the DISP button, make sure the screen where the speedo is shows the "Average" mpg.

When you put it in reverse, it goes beep, letting you know you're in reverse.
