Sirius Presets Question
I have a 2007 E350 with factory Sirius installed. Question I set the preset on the radio BUT now I can't scan through all the channels?. If I hit a preset it only goes up or down about 10 channels. If I start at preset 1 I cant get past 10. Also how do you delete presets?

So, you still can't choose your favorite 10 Sirius channels (regardless of arbitrary "group") and scan through them from the head unit or the steering wheel? That's amazing, and not in a good way. Earlier threads seemed to say that M-B fixed their '03-'06 FM mistake (no scanning of of FM presets from the steering wheel) in the '07. It seems like they still don't quite get it about letting people freely choose the channels they want to scan as presets. People don't choose Sirius presets so that they can jump to a "group" that may or may not include similar channels; they choose presets because they like those specific channels. M-B shouldn't need a lot of expensive market research to deduce that.
