I dunno...I heard that it's been a hassle lately to get OnStar to swap over the information to the "new" OnStar module...

jeffny09 · 05-11-2011, 12:12 PM

whats the difference

Iwantone2 · 05-11-2011, 12:15 PM

For those of us that didn't get the Bluetooth OnStar module, it will give us Bluetooth for phone.

bigwayne3000 · 05-11-2011, 12:17 PM

What seems to be the problem? Does OnStar think you stole the new module therefor they dont want to swap over any information and they disable it instead? I dont plan on keeping OnStar after June when my free trial ends but I still dont want to be completely s.o.l incase in the future I change my mind.

Iwantone2 · 05-11-2011, 12:26 PM

I don't know exactly what the issue was, as I've never done it myself. But if I find the post, I'll link it. Basically the person tried to get OnStar to swap over his account info to the new module, and they were giving them a hard time.

EDIT: http://camaro5.com/forums/showthread...=51929&page=12 and then go to post 464. However, a person below that post said that they had to keep calling back until somebody finally did it

Even if this happens, the bluetooth will still work right? Like I said Im not renewing OnStar so I dont relaly care.

Cbrenthus · 05-11-2011, 12:37 PM

And if one didn't switch it over, they wouldn't know, so this could be a real bonus for us tin foil hat wearin' mofos?

mxfan127 · 05-11-2011, 01:07 PM

Oh yeah, if you don't care much for the OnStar service, the Bluetooth portion would still work. I suggest you guys form the coalition with mxfan...

I'm thinking about it, I was going to go with the Bluestar option but might do this and not sign up.

Cbrenthus · 05-11-2011, 01:59 PM

Also, would have to install the steering wheel controls?

I don't think that the steering wheel controls are necessary. Pretty sure you can just use the phone button on the rear-view mirror.

mxfan127 · 05-11-2011, 02:20 PM

I BOUGHT THE WHEEL CONTROLS IT WAS ABOUT 100 BUCKS NOW I CAN CONTROL MY RAIDO AND AS SOON AS I GET THIS INSTALLED ALL WILL WORK THE WAY IT SHOULD
