I see on my 2007 A3 I have Sirius satellite radio. There are a few stations available and I listen occasionally. I did not order this feature but assume it was included in the Nav/Sound or Technology package.

In any case, I have it, and it works. I've not signed any agreement with Sirius, I was not told by the Audi Dealer to do anything with it.

Does Sirius broadcast a few free stations? Or am I getting some sort of trial period automatically?
Does it run out in a month? A year?
Any idea how much it costs to subscribe?

Thanks for any info!

 

My understanding is that you are suppose to get a 2 month free trial because of your new Audi, but I believe you have to activate your service.
Its $12.95 a month as I recollect with 130 channels.
That would be neat if they gave a you a few free stations with no activation.
Yeah it came with the NAV/Sound option.

 

I have a 2007 audi with the navigation plus system as well.
Mine also came with a couple of free sirius stations (including Howard 101) when I got my car.
I signed up over the Sirius website yesterday to find out that you get a 3 month free trial with ALL channels once you register.

I wonder if it will revert back to the 10 or so complimentary channels after the trial is up...

 

I put Serius in my truck a year ago and paid for a years subscription. I drive a little over 150 miles a day and thru different raidio areas. I found that after a couple of weeks I did not use the regular AM/FM and did a way with the factory antenna. I no longer use regular radio. I changed my one year membership to life time. I think Serius is great and in Jan. they start a seven year contract with NASCAR. You know how us Southern Rednecks are about NASCAR... Now we will have one or two channels devoted to NASCAR 24 hours a day which will remove the need for regular radio in about 12 states.


I think that a 3 months free membership will hook a lot of people

 

I was told the same. 3 month free trial. I am curious which channels will be free after the trial, I only like a few of them. Also, do you guys have an opinion of XM vs. SIRIUS? I guess I could read that else where.

Thanks

 

Check out sirius versus xm.

Hmmm only 499.99 for lifetime, but they want $75 for switching to a another radio? (up to 3 switches)

Other current deals.

 

thanks guys...good info..I Was wondering why the "free sirius" had only a few stations, Howard, some rock, some pop, some jazz. gonna head over to sirius.com now for 3 free months....

 

MP3 player any time upload what you want and listen when you want or go cd player

 

With my car on the day of delivery the girl rang XM (the satellite radio I had installed) and gave them my radio's ID over the phone. I didn't sign anything or give out any credit card details. My subscription lasted 3 months and I had access to all their radio stations for that period. I also signed up to their website and had access to their radio stations stream across the web. So I had it in my house through my media PC as well After 3 months my subscription ran out, and now when I change to the satellite radio on my head unit I get a few free stations, but nothing exciting. I have been debating with myself if I should get the subscription or not. But between having the 6-cd changer and the 2 SD card readers (which I have 2x 4GB SD cards for MP3) I see no reason to subscribe. If I did a lot of highway driving from city to city then maybe I would cause I would eventualy get sick of my MP3 and CD collections. But for me I am content with what I have minus the XM radio. I do admit it was good while I had it but paying for it is a different story Yup call me a prude [8D]
