Satellite Radio Isssue

Hi All,

I have a couple questions about the Sat radio, in my buddies f10 m5, we could not figure out. He just took delivery of a 2013 model, with the "new" generation idrive - updated version from the idrive in my 2012 135i.

First off, everytime the vehicle goes in sleep mode, and we restart it, the radio station goes back to Channel 184 (Sirius Preview channel). It is setup for a 1 year free subscription. In my car if I leave it on a channel it reverts back to that channel the next time I turn it on, rather than go back to 184. Anyone else experience this?

From the sat radio screen, I also noticed there is an option to "enter channel", however, nothing occurs when we attempt to enter it (just stays on 184) - picture attached.

Another thing it does, that mine does not, is when in a call via bluetooth - once the call has ended it goes to channel 184 as opposed to back to the last channel we were listening to.

Finally - when I pick up the phone via bluetooth, and subsequently reroute the call to my handset, the radio does not come back on, whereas it did on the previous gen idrive?

Anyone else notice this stuff?
