Strange Sirius behavior or broken unit?
I can see all of my channels on SAT but only when going through the category view. If I switch to "All channels" there is nothing listed. Sirius flashed me new signals about 5 times today with no luck. Told me pretty much immediately that the unit was defective. How can I get all channels through category mode but not see any channels through all channels mode? I'd rather not head back to dealer unless I have to. Suggestions?

Yeah, that's really weird, and it's something I'd have assumed a new activation signal from Sirius would've solved. Good news is, a replacement unit is pretty much plug-and-play and odds are good the dealer has them in stock since they should be the same across the E90 line.

It sat at the dealership all day yesterday and they wouldnt just replace it. Worked with BMWNA and opened up a PUMA case on it....took my unit and put it into another car and it worked fine but I cant believe BMWNA didnt suggest a replacement....Now I have to take it back once again.

I don't think simply replacing it would work... Having said that, I am surprised they did not just take a new unit and test it in your car for testing sake rather than going through the hassle of trying it on another car... Keep us posted on what happens. |

Sat at the dealership today for 2 hours in the morning and another 3 in the afternoon (luckily I work remote so pretty much anywhere is my office). The $4500 control unit part came in from Germany.....granted, it isnt drive train effecting but this it's still not right.....SA comes to me at 5:15 and says, "that still didnt fix it". WTF? Three separate times in the shop for a total of approx 10 days without my car since I bought it. BMWNA - are you listening? |
