I just got my 525 back from the dealer, software is now updated to 13.3.

I have RDS on FM, which I have never had before.

Auto pick in climate control menu is now gone, but that isn't a big deal.

BMW assist connection seems more solid. (I would still rather sacrifice it for BT).

Auto pick is the two check boxes labled auto for passenger and driver side climate control, i just got my factory recall and some other things done now i have lost this option and also, my station nameing and song titltling used to work, now it doesn't i am kinda pissed because i liked that funtion and i also like my songs to be named because radio stations rarely name the songs that they play i miss this function already.

It is also intermittently scrolling either the name of the station or the name of the song, but it gets hung up a lot and is wrong a lot.? I have so many glitches with my car I wouldn't really look to me to be the expert on the subject!

SueBMW Do you know what version you just got. I understand that V13.2 disables RDS on NAV cars are provides an option to turn it on or off in non NAV cars. Is there a newer version out there?

I have the same message and cd problem. Service advisor said they will correct at the next service. (15,000). Everything else works fine, is it worth risking other problems??

Darn, I just got mine back and I've got 13.23. Anyone know the difference between 13.23 and 13.3?

I never had RDS as an option (March '04 build) and 13.23 is the only upgrade that I've had and I have never had RDS available.

Great news, RDS is back? or do you not have NAV in which case 13.3 still may not restore it for NAV cars

I just picked up a brand new 530i with version 13.3 software. RDS is enabled, but fails very frequently. It displays the radio station once in awhile, and the song name VERY rarely. It is full of bugs...

I spent 5 hours in my new car today! LOVE IT!!
