Hi,I am trying to remove one of the station in the preset radio stations in iDrive. I can not find how to do it. The user manual describes how to add stations, but not how to remove them or how to clear the complete list.Any idea how to do this?Thanks!Ben

If you don't want to overwrite the stored station maybe try to depower the car by removing the ground on the battery. I would think this wod clear it.

There are 2 stations having almost the same name: RADIO X and RADIO X2. Strangely, they both tune at the same frequency when RDS is set. It seems there is a bug in the iDrive. So it is why i want to get rid of one of the station.
I guess there is nothing i can do except to disconnect the car battery...
