OK, when the radio receives a TP (traffic programme) and swaps the source how do I manually cancel it it return to my previous source?

So far I found I can only do it my manually cycling back around the sources (e.g with the programmable steering wheel button)

Last day I was listening to the CD and then stopped the car. TP was ON. When I started the car again there was no way to get the CD play, the radio got stucked on the station that was transmitting TP. I have the pro radio and no CD changer. The only way to get the CD play was to eject it and then load it again.
Is this common radio issue?

Interested in your experiences.

i use the (programmed) Mute button on the steering wheel -- for TP reports that i want to ignore (or just hear the rest of the discussion or song that is playing) ---

I simply hit mute and then quickly unmute -
it returns to the original source and continues to play

hope that helps

Thanks, I'll give that a go. I use the mute button next to the CD player, but the effect should be the same.
