Performance Timer

Performance Timer
For those of us who don't have the performance timer on their car because of a glitch or whatever on the 2016's my salesman called me yesterday saying they just got a bulletin to fix this.

I've got the Performance Timer, but can't locate the Lap Timer in the Performance settings, which according to the owners manual, should display immediately after the PT..
Is there some magical method needed to get the LT to display.. tried going thru settings with both car running and not running.

Would you mind telling us the dealer and salesman. My local dealer is still saying that they don't know anything yet.

wild guess..
Just a guess, but thinking we might need to go into the PDR and actually do a lap, set the "finish line" which uses the GPS setting, and then cross it.
Wild guess and until I figure out a "lap" I can run (since I don't track my car) I'll never know if my guess is correct.. Maybe around the block.. lol
Can anyone else confirm my suspicions? Until you actually do a lap of some kind, no "lap time" will appear in the settings?

However - the Owner's Manual describes an entirely different "Lap Timer" that is operated with the buttons on the steering wheel. The Manual says that when you scroll through the "Performance" options you should see the Lap Timer appear right after the Performance Timer.
When I use the steering wheel buttons, when I scroll through the options I have the Performance Timer, but not the Lap Timer.
So....I dunno why not!?!?

So even after you doing a "lap" around you complex, it does not show anything in the "performance" settings.. I'm baffled then..
But that raises a question, what exactly is the Lap Timer we can set in the "Performance" settings.. ???
Somebody help me.. going insane.. okay.. more insane..

Yes - there is a "Lap Timer" in the PDR when you set a finish line. I have tried that out in my neighborhood by running a circular route around in my housing development and it works good to time a closed course. The PDR Lap Timer is operated completely from the PDR camera controls on the Infotainment screen.

Had mine done a few weeks ago, They got me the Performance timer. Called the dealer back saying NO LAP TIMER, I will bring back this week for them to check it out. BTW GM sent me a $250 voucher for any GM licensed product. GM Rep called yesterday asking if all went well with my current Android update, which is NOT working, I also told him about not having the Lap timer he will check back end of next week to see if the dealer corrected this. The GM Customer Service Rep said for my troubles he will be sending me a Voucher for GM licensed products, He can not send this until the issues has been resolved. So for my troubles I have received $250 towards products and possibly another $250.

Regression testing our software.. HUH?
So, did you have the Lap Timer BEFORE they did the update for the PT?
Don't get it, when they do an update you'd think everything would be in the new release, we shouldn't have to go back and "regression" test all the options we are supposed to have.. come on GM.. where is the quality in your software updates!

I am planning on taking my car in for the update. Did you get the issue with the lap timer resolved? I don't want to have to go back a second time if there is still a fix in the works for the lap timer.

I took my car in yesterday for the Android Auto update and the timer fix. The lap timer is not there.

Would one of you guys with the software update look to see if you have numerical readout for the performance gauges, like oil temp and coolant temp, with the performance setting on your Track dash display please?
I have seen this in a car recently and am trying to get it on my car:https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...rack-mode.html

I have those, even thou I've not had an update done yet. Mind you, I do have the PT but no Lap Timer.. not so sure I want to get an "Update".. but I have them when in "Tour" mode so thinking you may be looking in the wrong setting (IE: Track VS Tour)

I do have this. Just no way to get them activated. The dealer did get me the performance timer and said I need to bring back to get me the lap timers.
