RDS Problem

Hello,

I was having a problem with the radio channels, whereby I will be listening to one radio channel, and then it automatically swaps to another channel for a few seconds, and then it comes back again.

Took my car to my dealer, and they disabled the RDS in the idrive. It seems to be working fine.

Any on you had similar issues ?

Thanks

You press the button at bottom left of radio which turns of RDS and traffic alerts( i think)

you should leave RDS on- but make sure you have TP disabled - this will switch you to traffic news whenever the local station puts it out.

Hi, I'm new to this blog, but have had my 116 f20 for 2 months now. I have noticed the same problem, the dealer recommended switching off rds and tp. Weird though. HAve had it since.
