Issues with radio

Hi, I have had my X5 for about 6 months now. Been to the dealer twice for some software issues. But I’m still experiencing issues with the radio FM and AM there is a long delay from 30 seconds to 5 minutes to change stations . It’s driving me crazy at this point. The dealer is telling me it’s a known issue. But when I call BMW they don’t know anything about it. Anyone here having this issue ? Any suggestions would help ? I’m planning on taking the car back to the dealer.

I don't think this is a known issue in the customer community, don't recall anyone mentioning that, seems like a new one. What iDrive software version?

I have the same radio issue as you described. X5 is at the dealer and they have opened a case with BMW. Hopefully they will have a permanent fix. It has been a very annoying first-world problem. The latest ...55 updates didn't fix it.

I recently posted on a similar issue in my 2019 X5 and just now saw this thread. In addition to the same delay issue you have, my radio also will sometimes change to the previous channel I was listening to instead of the new channel that I selected. I previously had a 2016 X5 that did not have either of these issues. I wonder if BMW underestimated the processor power or memory that was going to be needed to run the new software.
