I may have found a bug with the audio system. When listening to Sirius XM, I prefer the buttons on the steering wheel to select the next station, not the next preset station.

So for example, if I'm on station 100, I would like to press a button and go to station 101. It turns out, on FM a quick press goes to the next preset, but a long press goes to the next numerical station. Fantastic, just what I need.

But on Sirius XM, a long press skips the next station and jumps to the one after. So 100, 102, 104, 106 etc. It should be a long press takes you to 100,101,102,103 etc.

Thoughts? Does this happen to anyone else?

Long-press of the seek arrows should skip 10 channels at a time when playing SiriusXM radio. Is it possible that the long-press is working correctly, and the 10 skipped channels are decimals between the Sirius stations you get? (attachment 1)

While not as convenient as a button press, there is an option to speak the desired Sirius channel or station name using the talk button. (attachment 2)

Long-press of the seek arrows in AM/FM radio mode stops at the next strong signal. (attachment 3)

Thanks for the reply. The buttons I'm taking about are on the steering wheel. When I press/Hold it skips a single channel, not 10. So 100,102,104 etc. Is this different on your car?

When you press and hold the skip (>>) button on the infotainment screen, do you get the same # of skipped channels? The buttons on the steering wheel are proxies for the same controls on infotainment/radio screen.

I love being able to start songs from the beginning on Sirius if you tune in mid tune.

The Sirius-dedicated memory also stores up to an hour of programming, until you turn the car off.

I went out and tested it. The steering wheel buttons always skip a station 100,102,104, etc. The physical buttons on the radio itself works as expected. And just like the manual says, if you press and hold it will skip 10.

Is anyone else having this issue?
