As per my dealer RDS will not be longer available. I upgraded to 13.2 and it does not have it (Automatic A/C feature is gone too). They told me that 15 will not have it either.

We should start calling them software downgrades, not upgrades.

RDS doesn't change nav routes and doesn't even give you infos about traffic jams, etc.... That is TMC.
RDS is only providing text that the radio station sends. It can be infos, artist name, song name, news... Or just the name of the station. TMC is the traffic info system.
