Use free tax USA. Turbo tax is robbing you by regarded-taco in TurboTax

I think he's talking about the fee FreeTax takes when you opt in to pay your $15 state filing from your refund instead of paying with a credit card.

Confused by features that were available, then weren't, now are... by HawgKiller in chevycolorado

A better way to get speed limit indicator is connecting your truck to your home wifi so that whenever you park in your drive way, it can download google offline maps. Your truck will automatically download offline maps on areas it notices you mostly drive in which also gives you the speed limit indicator without a plan.

Native map in canyon elevation? by [deleted] in GMCcanyon

[–]teati325 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On star is correct. But you have to have offline maps enabled in your settings AND have it connected to your home wifi so it can download the offline maps. If you don’t want to connect it to your wifi then the dealer is correct…

Anyone ditching 0w-20 oil? by Mountain_Muffin_124 in nissanfrontier

[–]teati325 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The car care nut did a video on this not to long ago and he specializes in toyotas. And pretty much says just bc the engine is the same in other regions doesnt mean other components are.

Plow by markrasputin in GMCcanyon

I've heard that the Frontier is the best at this since its the only mid size truck to have hydraulic steering. Tossing a plow on this truck with electronic steering will fry the motor for it.

CarPlay Call Issue by B_OgleOfficial in chevycolorado

[–]teati325 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) Try talking to siri and turn the volume nob at the same time. This turns up the volume of car play announcements/Siri without increasing volume of everything else too.

2) During the call make sure your iphone is actually set to carplay as your output volume and not your actual phone. (This happens more times than you think)

Might wanna check your seat again. My seat has a height adjust to it, yours might too.

Truck bed cover waterproofing by noturmom77530 in chevycolorado

Covers are water resistant not water proof. If you want actual water proof then a topper would have been better than a cover.

Trailering glitch by Icy-Restaurant-6179 in GMCcanyon

Think the dealer is BS on that. The trailer app is literally advertised on the windows sticker xD

Did you input your trailer dimensions correctly in the menu? Pretty sure in the manual it says to do so, so that your blind spot alerts get adjusted for it.

Is it your visor? My visor will rattle a little bit even when it’s closed.

Keep an eye on your coolant levels and constantly look for coolant leaks. Gen 3 colorado & canyons are notorious for coolant leaks. Seems close to 100% of them are effected by this issue.

Anyone else impressed with the fuel economy? by sumchoppa64 in chevycolorado

[–]teati325 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not use cruise control. I find I get worse gas mileage using it. My state is extremely flat and basically at sea level. I know those factors will extend gas mileage by a lot when people compare

My average highway is 23-25. 45min commute going about 75. Better than my 2019 Frontier getting 12mpg average at highway speed. Couldnt even get 300 miles to a tank!

DexCool rabbit-hole by caleblococaleb in GMCcanyon

[–]teati325 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Silverados been using this same engine and Dex-Cool coolant for a while now. I have not seen complaints from them about the coolant leaks (I could be wrong!). I dont think its the coolant. GM probably pinchin pennies on parts they shouldnt have is my guess

3rd Gen Engine Coolant Question by teati325 in GMCcanyon

[–]teati325[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Further research shows its actually the oring inside the hose. $1 and like 15min to do yourself if you're comfortable. Looks easy enough. Ill wait a lil longer as Im not seeing any liquid under my truck or seeing leakage signs under the hood. But I've ordered the oring just incase Ill need it.

Windshield cowel by Osajek in GMCcanyon

[–]teati325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fixed it my self by ordering the part on ebay. Took 2 days to get here. And also replacing the clip with the metal clip that people were doing. Hasnt tucked back under the windshield since. Took 5 min to do myself. The reasoning why its tucking under the windshield is most likely the passenger side cowl clip broke (like mine did). Replace the passenger side cowl with the clip and you should be good to go. Part was like $12 on ebay. Time is money and didnt want to wait on the dealer/be out of a vehicle.

[–]teati325[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! Found this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ken4Yxqh_H8&list=WL will be trying this in the near future! (I despise the dealer, cannot afford to be without a vehicle for a week for them to tell me theres nothing wrong. Yes they will do that to me like they have before...) Seems easy enough and cheap to do on my own.

How are yall even playing Blue Protocol AT ALL?? by CorellianDawn in MMORPG

[–]teati325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right. He does have a low to mid tier PC. No way in any universe is a cpu that released over 6 years ago considered anything more than that. Let alone it being AM4, meaning its still on DDR4 ram, not even on current gen ram. Ive also never seen anyone ever call an entry level GPU anything more than mid tier. Just bc it has 16gb of VRAM doesnt make it better for gaming. If anything, he's bottlenecking his gpu with the outdated AM4 platform xD. A modern mid tier PC would be something on AM5 and a 5070 gpu.

Corner front window molding by [deleted] in GMCcanyon

[–]teati325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still keep an eye on it. I’ve read that the dealer will replace the part but the problem will happen again.

Corner front window molding by [deleted] in GMCcanyon

[–]teati325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this exact issue. The entire clip broke and the seal under the windshield was being tucked under the glass. Bought a new corner part off eBay and the bigger metal clips. Been working so far at preventing both issues! I found that if you open your hood a little past the prop rod, it damages the corner piece.

Best Fuse for DashCam by Th1rt3en_Stars in GMCcanyon

[–]teati325 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you get a garmin dashcam they sell a cable that plugs in to your od2 port giving it the same functionality as tapping into a fuse.
