I just had a very bad experience with my local dealership. I purchased a PDIM and sterring wheel controls from Tonkin Chevrolet and installed them myself. After the install I went to Parks Chevrolet to have the programming completed.
Now the bad experience begins. I was the second upgrade they have done, so I felt good about them completing the upgrade. I sat in the waiting room for two hours before the tech admitted he was having trouble. He came back 30 minutes later to let me know that he was wrapping it up. An hour passed and he had not returned and at this point I have been at the dealership 3 1/2 hours on a program that should have only taken one hour. I asked to speak to the service manager and after explaining my situation he spoke with the tech and relayed to me that during the programming a great deal of issues arose. By situations they meant that they screwed up my car. The braking system was effected along with the Stability Track. After 30 minutes they returned with my car and told me that it was completed. I paid and was on my way, but by the first light I realized the IPOD did not work. I was beyond upset. After speaking to the service manager once again I explained that I would return on Monday to complete the programming. I returned and after two hours my car was completely finished. Very bad experience. Make sure that the techs know what to do before you trust them with your car. I pays to ask a great deal of questions.

I'm playing on Tis2Web; got through the VIN screen, then the RPO, and then it asks me for a hardware part number from the GM scan tool or the label on the controller. The dealership is trying to tell me there's no newer software, but I have a 2011 with the C version hard and software. What hardware number do I put into the Tis2Web to get the correct printout to show them?

So after an unenlightening conversation with the service writer, and then the service manager, they are telling me that my 2011 which is showing the CE version actually has the PDIM 20985421 already installed, and "the only thing that TIS told us is that there will be a module eventually, but it's not released yet."
Short of pulling my car apart to get to the module and check the part number myself (because I don't believe them) is there any way to see what part number is installed right now? My current plan is to just go pick up my car tomorrow, prove to them that the vert sitting on their lot has a later version of the software, and probably take it to a larger dealer in another town that might be more useful. |

And to answer your question: Yes, I think I'd take it out of the car and show it to them. You have a 2011, and there is no reason for them not to replace your PDIM with PN20985421 under warranty. Hell! They should replace the 2010 PDIMs with PN20985421 under warranty!

Ok, I get that DB/DB is for 2011...but what about the DA/DX module, is that not the WARRANTY Replacement for the 2010's? I have CC/CE. So, my only other recorse is to buy DA/DX or DB/DB and void my warranty on my Radio and any other electorincs that attach to it or dont' listen to my iPhone in my car? I am confused and frustrated about this matter. |
