We're all annoyed by that. Stupid implementation. Setting one of the shortcut buttons to Presets helps.

I've had the car since Dec, and it hasn't done that until this week. What caused it? Software update?

And I thought it was me, not the software. Even when deleting the XM (and checking the presets) in preferences, it still reverted to all XM as default.
I'll try to devote one of the programed buttons. |

Since there is no OTA s/w updates yet in North America, only you know if you've recently had a software update (or possibly only your service department if they didn't tell you). In my case, I've been on 3/2019.45 since pickup 4 weeks ago and the issue exists on that version for sure, previously discussed in a couple of other thread on the forum. If we find it is version-specific, then it will be another nail in the "BMW software teams don't know about regression testing" coffin.

Mine does not go back to anything other than what was left. If I'm on presets turn off come back the next day or from going inside store it is still at my presets. Still playing the same station. Are you all saying this does not happen? That is strange to me

This is because on startup, the car will no longer be in the presets "mode" but rather on satellite radio "mode". |

This allows for multiple situations. I can scroll through the presets (using button #6) or I can choose to select another station on the radio band I'm listening to...instead of having to go back into iDrive. Do you guys not have the scroll button or something similar on your G05s?

It used to work the 'proper way' on 2018.11 and other early builds. it changed to this new default when I was upgraded to 2019.37. Just baffling.

i'm starting to wonder if bmw even knows this is happening because it wouldn't make sense to program it this way.

If you use the scroll wheel, the same issue occurs where you are no longer in your presets, but rather are in the last used type of radio used when you turned the car off. |

Same issue happening here.... just started a week or so ago, which is weird... but then not given the pile of shit that BMW's iDrive 7 is. Nothing surprises me any more.

I just got my car back from having the update to .48 and it also does not go back to presets. I am missing my 2015 X5 more everyday - it may not have been as technologically sophisticated but it just seemed that everything seemed to operate so much more logically.

I'm having the same issue with my '19 330xi and stumbled onto this thread when looking for a solution. I've since contacted the BMW Geniuses about it, hoping that the bug report/feature request will make its way to the appropriate people. This was the response:

I enter the car, start it is play 002 my next station in order on my presets is 045, so when I press next it goes to 045 than 047 and so forth. No issues with it going to anything else. My software was just updated to 03-2019-48.

So my presets are all SXM, and I have another button to the only radio station.
I take it you are saying if in my presets I have that radio station to test then? I can do that and report back tonight.
