My RDS is gone, just like everyone else.
BMW makes a general statement about problems with it, but on this board I don't remember seeing any posts about problems.

What's the real story?

MY Dealer said to many people complained about it, and it confused them. So BMW decided to remove it completely.

It's getting to the point where anything that becomes confusing or a problem just gets eliminated. Where will this end? A lot of people are complaining about the squeeky seats. Are they going to just remove them to resolve this problem?

1. Blue Tooth
2. MP3
3. RDS
4. Sirius

Now some may say that they never were told that they would have these options in their vgehicles. I have the original promotion materials provided to me by my dealer back in June or July of 2003 where it mentions these 4 items as features of this vehicle.

Also if that was the case then they would make it able to be selectable by each user like it seems can be done on cars with the CCCC computer. So does that also mean that if everyone starts complaining that it is missing that they will re-install it or make it user selectable?
