My Ride: 06 530i. Premium, Sport, powere shades, Sat. radio and hopefully the occasional groupy in the seat.
I'm about to start reading hte manual, but I figured I'd kill 2 birds with one stone. It appears to be losing it's memory now every time I start the car. It only started last night after I left the car with valet. I figured they screwed around and hit the master reset or something. So I programmed my preset stations again last night, and I just got back in the car and everything is back to default for tones and all presets are gone. I have comfort access, so is it possible that the valet key in the glove box is taking over when I start the car?

Do you have NAV? if so here you go.
SUBJECT
CCC: Radio Station Preset List Intermittently Empty
MODEL
E90, E91 (3 Series) with SA 609 CCC-Navigation
E60, E61 (5 Series) with SA 609 CCC-Navigation
E63, E64 (6 Series)
All vehicles produced from September 2005, or older vehicles that have been updated with CIP 19.1 or later.
SITUATION
The stored radio station list (presets) is intermittently empty. The radio stations stored are not displayed in the CID (Central Information Display). It is still possible to change the stations using the steering wheel buttons. The audio still functions correctly.
CAUSE
Software error in CIP 19.1 or later.
PROCEDURE
Do not replace any parts.
The station list will be displayed again if the audio source is changed and changed back again (e.g. from FM to CD and back to FM again).
If changing the audio source does not provide a solution, program the complete CCC again using the "software update" path, then carry out a 30 minute battery reset and then perform a complete vehicle encoding.
This service information will be updated once a software solution is available.

nope, no nav. It's an 06 that just got off the boat the beginning of November.

Have you saved your settings to your key versus only saving them to the car?
We have a choice??
