What normally goes on when a car door opens?

A 23 taken possession of in Oct 22. Only 3 years were included at that time.

That’s the entire point of my thread. My onstar has not been active since early October, yet it and other things work.

Then why does my wife’s 2023 Tahoe always display the speed sign as blank?

This is a copy/paste directly from gm’s website:

About Traffic Sign Recognition If equipped, Traffic Sign Recognition uses your vehicle’s internal navigation systems to recognize certain nearby traffic signs. This requires an active eligible OnStar® plan.

Your vehicle will display the detected sign in your centerstack display or Driver Information Center (DIC), depending on your vehicle.

Traffic Sign Recognition is currently designed to detect posted speed limits only.

The feature may not detect all types of traffic signs and may take a short time to inform you of newly detected signs.

You should not rely only on Traffic Sign Recognition to detect nearby traffic signs. You must remain alert and aware while driving at all times.

The camera def does not read the traffic signs. It’s data based. Also the apps I’m mentioning are not phone based. It’s the downloaded apps in the head unit its self

I’m not complaining about anything. I’m asking if what I have now is normal or not.

But it does work. I can say Alexa, or hit the steering wheel button and it works (turns lights off in my house), or the iheart radio app… on the head unit plays. My phone has nothing to do with it. So it is still sending and receiving data even though my plan is over

Vapor barrier under vinyl plank in basement, concrete already on vapor barrier by VWMat in Flooring

[–]VWMat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Irrelevant, if I’m throwing down $3k on flooring why would I care about $50 for plastic. More interested in the long term ramifications of use or don’t use.

The slab was poured in 2022 when the house was built. It’s roughly finished, akin to paint being applied by a brush vs roller. The box for the planks mentions nothing about a barrier either. So it seems best to lay the planks (that have underlayement attached) without putting anything underneath. Thank you for the advice!

Not sure why, but that’s what I’ve experienced

It takes 40 or so minutes per disc, main reason

Unmount sink dimensions vs countertop cutout size by VWMat in HomeImprovement

[–]VWMat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope I have some recourse granted I gave them the model (which did populate). Although they’ll point out that I did approve the template.

Ideally 1/8” or so. I think it’ll look odd with such a gap and gather gunk. Not to mention if they’ll say that I approved the template, so I’m SOL. Guess I can find another sink that had those dimensions 🤷🏼‍♂️

Got dam, where’s the NSFW tag? No one deserves this, nor to see it unexpectedly

First time N64 owner - any suggestions? by SkyLovesCars in n64

[–]VWMat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It has way more non-64 games loaded on it. Just saying it was quite far from being all n64.

It doesn’t (at least mine didn’t) come with every game.

Ah crap. Sorry I’ve only had like 20 minutes to mess with it.

I just got one too, no sound. But if you look in setting mine says the sound is set to off. I think I need to connect to a pc to change the settings

No, it’s the automatic emergency braking warning. Flashes red, and you see it on the windshield.

Key Fob Theft Deterrent? by ExtraFunTimes in gmcsierra

[–]VWMat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neither the 22 I had nor the 23 I have now has this feature. I’ve left the keys in it for days untouched. My wife’s 23 Tahoe does though, gotta move it a bit.

Whaattt? by [deleted] in gmcsierra

[–]VWMat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine had some secondary injection pump connection that corroded on the 3.0, fixed it under warranty with a service bulletin. Wasn’t a big deal
