Hi, Newbie here...I am about to do a sirius radio install on my new B7, and I'm wondering what the display looks like. Does it show the name of the track and artist or does it just display the station on radio. I've asked a few people about this but I haven't gotten a straight answer from anyone. Oh yeah, I do not have the NAV system or Tire Pressure Monitoring system. Thanks in advance.

When you say "Sirius radio install" do you mean that you're activating the Sirius receiver in the Bose system that comes with the car? If so, the display on the head unit itself is selectable for any of 1) channel name/number and preset, 2) artist and title or 3) genre. The display in the center of the pod shows channel name and preset.

To show artist name and title you have to have RDS selected. If it is, then the radio displays RDS information on FM as well.

 

psh satellite radio is still radio...its all about the 6cd changer or mp3 player hook up. Although the stand up comedy channels are cool.

 

I bought a separate unit from clairparts and installed in on the audi symphony system. I want to know if it scrolls between the sirius station and the artist/title track name
