Mine shows 8/28 2:26PM on the front frame, 8/29 7:39AM on the differential, and the build date is 8/31/2009. August 30th was a Sunday in 2009. Also 8/30 is my Birthday.

Never noticed the clip under the console lid. Good find there.
Your 100% right but you can explain this here a hundred times and most people just don't get it.

Did you know we had a back seat? I haven't used it nor ever will.

Tap the turn signal left or right and you blinker will go on and off in 3 seconds. Perfect for a lane change.

I thought the steering wheel only went up and down, and in and out. It does not "tilt" right?

I noticed because its been bothering me

[QUOTE=caliguy;5091592]This was done already, but with your key in on position hold the menu button for 5mins you'll see a chevy emblem show up on your DIC panel.[/QUOTE]Why were you holding this down for five minutes?

I've had several other cars in the past when this tech wasn't available yet and the window wouldn't seal.
Unless of course your car lands in water, but that's a whole different problem, and not sure the window indexing would be a help.

GM has successfully engineered something into these cars that nobody else has been able to do in history. Stop little kids from running around. When they see a Rally Yellow with Black Stripes they stop dead in their tracks and stare.

On the vert, with the top down, if you try to roll the front windows up before the back windows are up, the front windows will stop until the back windows are in place and then the front windows will continue to roll up. Love that it is 1 touch to roll each window up as well as down.

There is a pocket on the driver's sun visor to hold your registration & insurance if you fold them up enough.

There ARE sun visors

If the window is going up or down in auto mode pressing up or down, the direction it is moving, will stop it. Don't press up when it is going down, press down again and vice-verse. Took almost a year before I discovered that
Thanks for this ^ I always end up fighting my window in auto mode! It feels like a game of pickle and I alway lose Ha ha.

Although, I guess a look through that owner's manual thing may have helped, but oh well. Wouldn't have found out about the clip in the center console w/o this thread.
