Faulty audio system dashboard unit: I assume it can be easily replaced?

BarryJI · 02-22-2023, 04:55 PM

Before I throw myself at the mercy of the dealership -- which I will be happy to do once I've educated myself -- can anyone advise re. what it would involve to replace this faulty unit in my 2015 2-Series? it's definitely on the fritz, with the buttons no longer performing their programmed functions. I can get my regular channels on Sirius by programming them in the digital radio presets but it appears that this physical one-touch mode for setting and recalling certain functions is shot. Any good intel? Many thanks.

I got my unit repaired by an Ebay store called bavlogic. It's easy to remove and all of my settings were retained.

Turn car off and hold radio power button for thirty seconds. Second with car on do the same. XM told me this and reset all issues. Presets came back later. Weird.

I will try that; nothing to lose by giving it a go, I assume. Many thanks.
