i was trying to set the steering wheel controls to scroll up thru the set channels on the radio, but it will only scroll thru the dial frequency by frequency. what am i doing wrong. my other cars will set to scroll thru the button channels. thanks

Page through the steering wheel controlls, until you get to the page with vech. choose audio linked to memory, the preset stations will then come up when you are changing with the steering wheel.

thanks for the reply, but i stopped at the dealer and they could not get it to do this. maybe the 08's will. if you scroll to audio in the 06 i cannot see a selection for presets or memory. my s55 and sl55 both can do presets. anyone here with a 06 ml that will select presets from the steering wheel?thanks

I have the same year and model with the upgraded sound system and when advancing the stations from the wheel it goes to the next available station.

If you hit seek on the console I beleive it does the same thing.

Only way to do the presets to my knowledge, is to hit the numbered keypad on the right of the screen.
