Radio service information on BMW E46/E60/E61/E63 and other models (2006–2010); BMW explains the cause and the approved repair.

BMW service bulletin · NHTSA ID 10148376 · Aug 2014

What it covers

A service bulletin tells BMW technicians how to diagnose or fix a known issue. It is not a recall: a repair under a bulletin is normally paid by the owner unless the car is still under warranty or a warranty extension applies.

Previously assigned radio channels to the satellite radio "Presets" list have been erased and radio channels selected from the list "All channels" menu cannot be stored in the "Presets" list. The problem occurred after the recently implemented Sirius/XM channel lineup change.
