Hi,

Now and then I get messages that my Sat Radio subscription is expiring. This started a a few weeks ago. My 1 year free isn't up until December. Anyone else getting this? Yet another issue from the last software upgrade?

Sigh...

Yes. They are just very eager :-). (the lead time is ludicrous, but the indicated expiry date is correct for me)

There is a function in Canada you can use to get a refresh signal sent to your radio:

http://www.siriusxm.ca/help/resend-my-signal/

I'm sure there is one for the US too but the website automatically detects my region and redirects me so I can't find I for you.

Google "Sirius refresh signal"

Are you sure it is not 6 months that get included with the car?
I know it was 12 in the past and that's what i got with my X4 in 2016 but on my X5 i could have sworn it was 6 months.

I just purchased my car and I get the same message... I just ignore it.

after a quick google between work stuff, i see that this may be different in the US and Canada, so nevermind my comment then.

I've seen this message once, about 3 weeks after delivery of vehicle and activation of SiriusXM. Called them and was advised to ignore it.
