HD Radio Presets

mjposner · 02-04-2012, 01:58 PM

I have an hd radio and when I tune to HD-2 stations and hold the numbered buttons for the presets it says it is preset but when I use it later it always defaults to HD-1. Am I doing something wrong or is this how it works.

Says HD-2 at bottom of screen for one of he six stations.

If you have an 08, the iDrive won't let you set presets for HD2 stations. You can only tune to it manually. Kinda sucks.

Yes I have an 08. Its so odd since the labels at the bottom actually say the hd-2 station.
