OK.. how to diplay tire pressure, coolant temp, etc?
Been though the manual a dozen times, been in the car an hour, searched the forums but to no avail...
So.. how can I select to see:
Each tire's pressure (and temp?)
Coolant temp (found oil and tranny temp)
Stuff li'dat?
(or are there no digital readouts similar to the C6 DIC?)

5-24 on the online owners manual for tire pressure.
5-10 for the tire temp
Takes a bit of playing around to get used to it.
Coolant temp is the giant analog gauge under the gas gauge

Related question. When on the tour display is it possible to show both the "Pocket gauges" to the right (5-11) and the DIC info display (5-24) in the center at the same time?

As for those manual sections, they don't tell you how to reach the wanted displays. For example, I haven't even figured out how to get to the trip meter..
More playing I guess....

You get to all displays with the left arrow, then up/down arrows on the wheel...more reading needed.....do nothing but sit in the car and play with those 4 arrows for 30 min and it's all crystal clear where to find stuff...

This what I've been frustrated about on the various gauge displays, the car doesn't save your particular gauge display when you switch back & forth between Driver Modes. Meaning you either have to change the display everytime you change Drive Mode or learn to ignore it, I guess?
If you're wanting a digital read out for coolant set your Drive Mode to TOUR then from the Steering wheel control left arrow to bring up the MENU OPTIONS->PREF then press ^ or v to get to the upper most selection, it's a unique display that has digital readout for Oil Temp & PSI, Coolant Temp, Tires, & Battery Volts as well, I think it's the only one with a picture of the stingray off to the side.

Keep working with it, it takes some time and effort, but it does work pretty good after you once get it down. There is so much information available that it is overwhelming at times and all the sequence codes are difficult to remember if you don't do them regularly. This is alien to me as I grew up with analog and it is a digital world now, but it keeps me mentally active, well maybe mentally frustrated is a better description. But, repetition is my friend and I am learning it. The main problem is with this seemingly endless winter I don't get consistent seat time. The training videos on the GM website help.

Ken:
Press left arrow on your steering wheel, that will bring up a screen on your dash. Use down arrow on your steering wheel to get to "Info", then press right arrow on your steering wheel. This will start the various "info" screens. Then, use the down arrow on your steering wheel to get the"info" you want. To reset trip odometer, or lapse time, simply press & hold "select" button on your steering wheel until screen you are viewing "resets". To get the large tach display on your instrument panel, hit left arrow, then down arrow to "Perf", then "select" on your steering wheel. Hope the above helps.

Thanks to all who replied which really did help me out!
I sat in the car this morning and the proverbial light bulb went off (with everyone's help) and voila! Everything I was looking for
Thanks again

Was your car the one that went to the Keys? Probably left the digital gauge down there to keep it warm?
