Roughly 5 mins after starting up the SS, I heard a high pitched noise followed by the radio cutting out, and the screen going blank. The MyLink logo came on and the radio resumed at about 1/2 the volume. No media devices were attached and the volume level prior to the reboot was at 14 or 15. Anyone else have this happen?

Nothing this dramatic, I've just had it freeze up on occasion but it never has completely rebooted on me.

Do you have the startup volume lower than your listening level look in setup you can control volume on start up. I do this so that I don't get what few hairs I have left blown out. Now I don't know about the reboot never happened to me.

Yeah you can set your volume level low by default on restart, but that reboot is odd, I would try and replicate the problem, cant do much at the dealer if it never happens again.

I don't have the startup volume set lower in the options? I thought I remembered someone on the forum stating that an update was released for MyLink.

I too was listening to XM radio and the system shut down and rebooted. No sound was made. Only happened one time.

2nd day I had it, radio went silent on XM for a moment. Then was fine. Not one issue since.

Wait till you are going down the highway and suddenly a voice starts talking no radio on its an on star commercial.

Are you sure it just didn't loose the sat signal? Where I live there are certain spots it just cuts out for a second or two.

Also this reminded my of the time my Yukon's radio turned itself off for a few seconds while listening to FM. Not the nav radio just the standard radio. Turned it back on it was fine. Called onstar did diagnostics all was fine and then told me they had been sending an "over the air onstar update" which causes the radio to do that!

No, I'm sure. When there is no Signal it shows no signal. It just went completely silent. When I lose signal it has static on the speakers. This was 100% silent. Only ever happened once. And it was in my driveway. Same place I've listened to Sat radio in my G8 for the past year with no issues, even inside the garage.

Like I said, 1 time thing for me. 1,990miles on the clock and no issues since.
