    Navigation direction incorrect 2014

    FWIW, my compass did the same 3 years ago. At about the same time, the embedded cell radio/"air card" in my head unit stopped functioning and I lost all cell functions including telematics, OTA updates, 911, etc. When I took the truck in for service, the dealer attempted to update my radio and...

    The tweeters associated with the front door woofers are in the headliner above the front seat headrests.

    Adding an amp to the Alpine system

    From what I understand, the HU configures itself based on input from the BCM. With the alpine amp, the HU outputs fixed audio, and sends CANbus volume messages to the amp. Bass/mid/treble as well as balance/fade are also controlled via Canbus. PAC Audio was supposed to be offering a solution...

    Uconnect app subscription /registration?

    I thought album art was a given. Is that something that is broken on some RA3/4 conversions? Unless you are getting album art over bluetooth? That would be nice. Agree that uconnect subscription isn't worth the $$.

    navigation set up

    Unfortunately, it's only available on iPhone (as of the last time this came up). If you have an iPhone, look here. Works when listening to any source.

    Uconnect 3 USB audio. What format??

    FLAC is not supported. You are not going to benefit from lossless formats on the factory radio anyway. I use Mediamonkey to downconvert music from my library to 256K MP3 on an SD card. At the same time, I apply volume leveling.

    Ra4

    Tempting upgrade. Did you verify the USB port is working (for map/firmware updates)?

    Installed: Lund bed step

    Looks identical to the AMP Research Bed Step I have on my truck. Very handy when loading the bed and it feels pretty sturdy.

    Is there a way to keep my bedliner down

    I'm assuming your 2015 truck is still under the "bumper to bumper" warranty, and the truck came with the bed liner. Is there any part of your truck where deformation like that is acceptable? The hood? Fenders? Dash? Grill? Fender flares? If you would not accept any other part of your...

    Is there a way to keep my bedliner down

    In a 2015, I would consider it a warranty issue. Push the dealer to cover some or all of the cost of a spray-in liner in lieu of a drop-in. If all he will give you is a new drop-in liner, tell him not to bother installing it and sell it as NEW.

    UConnect 16.16.3 Upgrade Nearly Unusable

    When you use HFP prompts, it won't change the audio source at all (unless this is a bug in the new uconnect FW).

    UConnect 16.16.3 Upgrade Nearly Unusable

    Yes, and its easy. This bothered me for a while until I found the fix. -While connected to uconnect, open MAPS. -Touch the little Speaker/BT symbol in the lower right corner. -Enable "Allow HFP Prompts". If you are using google maps, the setting is called "Play as Bluetooth phone call"

    Uconnect Update

    15.26.1 was the "anti-hacking" update. There is nothing new for the 14's.

    Ocotillo Wells

    Plenty of easy trails out east, like Kitchen Creek, Fred Canyon, Oriflamme Canyon, Sheephead Mountain rd, etc. I used to go up Sheephead to watch the hang gliders jump off. Just gotta remember these aren't really off-road vehicles in stock form...
