RDS is radio, CD text is CD. They have nothing to do with each other.

Right, ofcourse. But coincidentally I lost both functions with a software upgrade. Since they show in the same display field at the bottom left of I-Drive, I would bet that they are related from a software point of view. I would be very surprised if I get RDS back and not the CD text.

What? this? You mean it shows text on the semi-circle? Mine showed in the bottom left where it says Track1. Ofcourse this was only for CDs in the main drive, not the glove box magazine.

It doesn't show the text in the semi-circle. It shows the text where it says Track1 in the pic. But ONLY in this CD menu! When I display the nav map it doesn't display the text anymore.
