My Ride: 525i E60 2004

Hi all, Im new in this forum, I've just changed my E46 (323Ci 2000) for an E60 (525i 2004), I'm trying to get used to it. I have some questions, the first one is that why my settings always reset when i turn off my car? i.e. I adjust the bass level of the audio system and if i turn off the car, when i start again the setting is the default one and not the one i've selectad the previous time.

thanks for your help!

Are you storing your settings by pressing the controller after you have adjusted each level?

My Ride: 2006 525XI, Jet black on Dakota beige. Premium and winter packages. I consider myself a purist and intend to keep my car absolutely stock and shiny. 2008 328I Convertible, Sapphire black on beige interior. Premium package, NAV, iPod adapter. Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.

There may be a problem with your key not storing the settings correctly. Try the other key and if the problem goes away, get a new key.
