Next?

I'll tell you...

In Germany you get calls, but they ring just once. So, you get a message "missed calls", and the number looks like a normal number. But when you call back, you are connected to an answering machine with some adult stuff...
The next day you'll get a call from the company behind it, asking for your address to send the bill, because you have dialed their number and agreed to a half year contract, which you have to pay now... Off course that's illegal and they will not sue you... But a lot of ppl are not smart enough and pay the bill...

Thumbs up

Today had 13.2 installed. Have not noticed any difference yet. Someone said that when you go to set a FM station you now have the option to turn RDS on or off? Any one see that? not me...

OKay - have had the car 1 day - first problem :'(

It doesn't display CD-text. I'm sure the CD's are encoded correctly, as my home CD player displays the cd-text just fine.

Could it be my 1 day old car has "old" software that does not support cd-text ?

I didn't think any version of iDrive supports CD-Text?

UltraPlanet burned CD's for our 2nd meet. Those are displaying text.
Maybe you can PM him and ask him how he burned them to get the text displayed...
I know for sure that the in-dash CD plaer can display the text, but not the DVD, nor the CD changer.

Yes I-drive does support CD Text. Your problem is not older software, but newer software. They have had a problem with RDS on NAV cars. I hope it comes back with V15
