This is quite possibly the best tutorial on customizing preferences. Great vid!

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the compliment and thanks for watching!

[@patrickdunn8918]

I just picked up my L3 stingray yesterday… This will probably be my reference material. I’m not a computer guy, so basically I’m not qualified to drive the car, but I sure do like it. And yes, it’s a chic magnet 😃

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Congrats on your new ride! We’re glad you found our video helpful! We realize that no one can remember everything so this way as you mentioned you have a great reference anytime you need it. Thanks for watching!

[@jamesschuster280]

You did an awesome job explaining everything

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thank you. Glad it helped!

The Corvette--an elaborate car, including/even on the inside! :p

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Yes it was very nice. Neither one of us was sure how we would like the new climate control buttons riding down the big ridge between the driver and passenger, but ended up thinking it was just fine, no big deal. Thanks for watching!

The HUD rotation has nothing to do with how you sit in the car. It is because of polarized sun glasses. You rotate it slightly and it becomes much brighter.

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the comment. The HUD up and down function is what makes a HUD appear brighter or dimmer to the driver wether or not your wearing polarized glasses. The rotation rotates or tilts it to the right or left. Thanks for watching

[@enlilannunaki9064]

@@TwoGuysandaRide While you can brighten or dim the HUD that will not affect polarization, it will remain dim with polarized sunglasses. You rotate it slightly to negate the polarization effect. Try it yourself.

[@brianmcgauley2664]

Great info, thanks! You might want to remove the factory protective film from your display.

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the compliment. As for the factory film, we'll let the owner handle that. Thanks for watching

Does C8 have valet mode, figuring no & can the rev limiter be turned back on ? Figuring that display screen doesn't have a locking compartment behind it like C7

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

It does have valet mode, IT automatically limits revs, no hidden compartment behind the screen. Thanks for watching

[@johnmoorhousedecorated-nam899]

Why does my radio come on automatically? can I stop that from happening

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. If you click on settings in the infotainment screen, then scroll down and click on Sounds, then you’ll see “Maximum start up volume”. Adjust that to zero, and that will stop your radio from having any volume start up Thanks for watching!

[@charlesnjaka6495]

So how does one fast forward a song or skip 10 seconds ahead? With my camaro, I used to long press the "fav" button but that doesn't work on the c8. Thanks.

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. There are buttons on the infotainment screen that allow you to fast forward, rewind, scrub through a song, and skip to the next song. Thanks for watching!

[@charlesnjaka6495]

@@TwoGuysandaRide Thanks. I'll try that out.

My onstar isn’t working on my 2022 C8 ! Can anyone tell me where is it located

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. The onstar button is located in your infotainment screen. It could be your trial time has ended. You can click on the onstar app and re-subscribe from there. Thanks for watching!

[@TheCashman007]

Does changing the language 20:10 change the language in the gauge cluster ? i'm not from USA and we use RHD vehicles ,I'm looking at this RHD C8 in Japan but it's all in Japanese ! can any one help , Thanks !

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Yes it does. But it I would highly recommend finding a friend with the 2022 corvette and try changing the language to see for sure that it works. If you’re changing it to English then it should work, but might want to do some research on corvettes sold over seas to see if there are any differences before buying. Voice command and navigation voice are also changed. There are some exceptions in which case voice command will not be available and the navigation voice will also not be available, now what languages does that happen with, that remains a trial and error process. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

Car seats heated steering wheel Come on ever time I start car How do I change it ?

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. Sounds you have it set to auto for those features, so to change that, go to settings, then at the top click on vehicle, then scroll down to remote start and click on it. From here you can turn off the auto heated seats and steering wheel. Thanks for watching!

How to turn off the radio when starting car? It’s 23 corvette c8

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

You should be able to go into Settings in the infotainment screen, then click on System, then click on Sounds. From that screen you should see Maximum Start Up Volume and you can lower it there so the volume is off when you start the car. Thanks for watching!

[@user-eb9yu5or5u]

Thanks for great info👍👍😊

[@joselooez3877]

How you restart radio

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. Not sure if you are referring to turning the radio on, or how to reset the radio to its default settings. To turn the radio on simply push the rotary knob on the top left of the screen. To turn it off, press and hold that same rotary knob. Once on, if you do a quick push on that same knob it will mute and I mute your audio. To reset the whole infotainment system back to its default settings, click on the settings icon, then click on settings on the top tabs (the tab farthest to the left)then scroll to the bottom of the list and click on Reset to defaults. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

[@ToyMarston]

What was teen mode

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

It mode to limit what your teenager does while driving the car. For example you set a geo fence and if the leave that area you’ll get a notification, it keeps the safety features turned on etc. Thanks for watching!

[@gary9225]

How do I get from two tiles to four?

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Can you give me some more information? Are you talking about the drivers screen or the infotainment screen? Thanks for watching

[@gary9225]

The drivers screen I see you had 4 tiles and was a able to put what you want to look at , I have only 2 one on top of each other

[@gary9225]

I just got my 2023 C8 this week and still trying to figure things out and set things up to see what I feel is important. Thanks for the video, I guess these are dumb question young people can figure out technology very easily.

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

@@gary9225 ok, so look at the right side of the drivers screen, and use the right/left arrows on the right side of the steering wheel and scroll over to “Options”. Then scroll down to “Info tiles selection” and from there, scroll down to the various tiles and if you click on one, a arrow will show in the little box to the right. Anything with a checkmark will show up on the left side of the steering wheel as a tile. Thanks for watching!

[@gary9225]

I want to thank for your content it is awesome and the time you take to reply thank you. I was trying to get the 4 tile setup left side of speedometer that you see in “track mode”, On other modes like “my mode” or “weather mode “ and I see that option is only available in track mode. I still have more to learn but I’m getting there LOL again thank you.

[@nickm8651]

C8 how do you delete a favorite FM radio station?
