While looking at gauges and other information on the center screen, I noticed that you can add certain gauges to the drive display, it replaced the default date/time/temp. While this is very straightforward, it seems that I can only have 1 item on the driver display. Meaning, I can add the tire pressure gauge but if I want to add the trip gauge the tire pressure gauge goes away. While I wasn't expecting them to be displayed at the same time, I assumed I could cycle between them. I thought this was doable because once you tap to 'add' a display when you add another gauge and go back to the first gauge, it doesn't have the 'add' option meaning it is already added, but I can remove it.

How is it that I can add multiple gauges but I can only get a single gauge to appear and I can't figure out how to rotate between all the gauges that I 'add' to the driver display?

2025 Tahoe.

Thanks.

I haven’t played around with this yet like I did on a rental ‘24 Silverado but I know you can cycle thru different clusters (DIC) so maybe try on one of the lesser populated cluster screens to see if it’s possible to add more than one, might be worth a look see.

Very underwhelmed w/ the customization choices in my ‘25 Z71 w/ HUD & after 6 months it’s not my lack of system operation knowledge.

That said really like the larger Infotainment screen added to ‘25s + the tranny selector stalk back on the steering column so they sorta offset the DIC choices.

I leave the one I want to see the most on the left side of the DIC, if I want to see any of the others I switch to the info screen and cycle through them there.

To the left? Which screen are you using as the main screen? My main screen is the one that shows most of the gauges and the tire pressure monitor (or whichever one I set) is set right in the middle of the display.

This is the gauge cluster display that I use regularly but I haven’t played around with adding or modifying this display.

I use a quick sticky tab for trip info on the infotainment screen so that I don’t need to have it on my DIC screen.

Yup, that's the view I use. When you click to add a screen to the driver display, it replaces the middle section where you see the time, temp and date. I was hoping to get left/right or up/down options when I added more screens. For example, oil life, trip 1, trip 1 and tire pressure. Also being able to go to the default option (date/time/temp) as you are scrolling through would be nice.

Another annoyance on this screen is having two gas gauge symbols on the bottom left.

One other thing I figured out is that if you are listening to the radio and have the nav in the full screen option (on the center screen) and you cycle through the radio presets, you don't see which station/preset you are on. You need to split the center nav screen or I suppose you can add the radio as one of the pop up screens in the main driver display, but I don't want to take up the entire middle section for a radio display.

I see the left right arrows so it seems that in the 2023 model you can add more screen and cycle through them. My 2020 had all the options visible in the driver display from the factory. I remember scrolling through trip 1, trip 2, tire pressure, etc...many options.

Are you still having a problem with this? What you need to do is set up what info you want to see all of the time in the left and right side of the display. I have my tires' PSI displayed full-time on the left side of the screen, and the time and temp in the right side of the screen. Then, if there's something like fuel economy or trips or something like that (I've got my center section showing the music I'm listening to -- so that I can have Waze on my Nav and be able to see what song is playing without moving off the Waze screen) in the middle section.

Now, you can't put everything offered for the center part of the screen to the left or the right, but you CAN put the tire pressure full-time to a side AND have the time and temp on the other side. You CAN NOT put what music is playing, for example, in one of the side displays.

So, there are limitations to what you can put in the sides, but there are some options (including the option to do what you said you can't do).
