    Front 21" Tire Shortage

    Not qualified to confirm or deny. I know a tire shop looked for a replacement tire in this size for me, but nothing else has the load rating. Is it possible to use 265 rears instead of 245 fronts? IDK.

    Front 21" Tire Shortage

    I own a 22 GT with 21" wheels. As someone living in LA, I have to deal with potholes, sometimes bad ones. After winter rains we have a lot of these, and it takes time to fix them, so hitting them is almost inevitable. I just had to replace the front right after it developed bulges. The tires...

    No, I do not. The CLK connects to the car as an Apple device. I wait for the logs copying to be over, press the Connect button on the screen, then the Android phone AA layer is activated and synced. All apps, including phone, work as they would with a AA enabled car radio. The only thing I...

    Received a replacement, played more, found were the problem was. I had to go manually into the Settings => Bluetooth => Connect to Android Auto on the bottom. After a few unit and phone reboots it works now, but I have to go through this process every time. It is no quick, no reboots, but...

    Definitely not how it went. Did not activate AA on my phone at all, did not set it up.

    But whatever the communication protocol, devices need to be connected. Did you connect to the box via Bluetooth or via WiFi? Again, in my case there is no WiFi network with box showing as a router. Bluetooth doesn't pair. I can use Spotify on the box with Waze on its SIM, but then I have no...

    I'll try that, but so far the box wouldn't let me to pair Bluetooth to it. Unless, I have to run it via WiFi, as I do with my AAWireless dongle in my Mercedes, but the phone doesn't see any WiFi network from the box either.

    Sorry, this is not very clear without commas and periods. Here is what I understood, please let me know if this is wrong: - Unpair the car from the phone - Reboot the phone - Start the Box - Re-pair the phone to the car I have tried to override just because not overriding hasn't worked.

    You mean unpair from the car? Did that, no change. Carlinkit just gobbles up the connection. If I force the phone connection manually, CarPlay option disappears. If I click on it, the phone disconnects. Either/or situation.

    I have not installed, deleted, or reinstalled any apps. The main apps for me are Waze and Spotify, they both are pre-installed, as you know. I did not bother connecting my Google account even, all other functionality is secondary for me in the car. Spotify I didn't bother to login into initially...

    Thank you much! The password is correct, but still no effect. Exchanging the unit now, hopefully this will help. Still no response from the support.

    So I have done the reset you were talking about, it is in a different place. Did not change a thing, still no phone or Spotify. Pretty much it looks like the Carlinkit takes over the Bluetooth connection, although it is never connected via Bluetooth.

    That is where I am, at Factory Reset. Asks for the password. It looks like you are driving. Please, stay safe, there is no rush, I can wait. In a meantime, I ask support for help with a full video.

    Thank you, trying to do the reset. Do you have a reset password by any chance - there is nothing in the manual or in FAQ in Support section of their site.

    Carlinkit works fine, but now the car doesn't see and connect to the phone. It did the first day, but no longer. No Settings were changed. - No phone or Spotify - If I manually force connect to the phone, Carlinkit disconnects and CarPlay button appears. Once I hit that, Carlinkit stars, the...

    Thank you, had the launcher 2 set already. It opens in a split screen, but if I click on the Waze icon or tap the screen it goes to a single screen and I can't figure out the way back to split. Any ideas?

    Installed the Carlinkit today, thank you everyone here, who advised on it. Finally, I can use Waze!A tiny Waze, but nonetheless. A question though- is it possible to have Spotify buttons on the screen, as I do have in my Mercedeses? Or have split Waze screen with nav and music controls? If yes...

    I have just made a suggestion to anyone who feels the same way. But people feel the need to call me a dick and tell me how wrong I am not seeing the issue their (the only correct) way, as if I'm making them do something against their will. Don't want to do it - don't do it, as simple as that. I...

    You have just repeated it. And yes, GM has it. Or at least I did not know they don't and keep on using it for years. You should probably know what are you talking about before repeating it for the  third time.

    I have. I have even asked Peter personally as long as 6 months ago. Got the same "soon" as always, nothing is changing. In my experience, businesses not motivated by a consumer behavior are not in a rush to do something. I have waited patiently for over a year, what has changed? And being...
