Radio stations on startup

Each time I get into the car in the morning, the DAB radio station is the audio mode rather than the favourites which are set when the car was switched off. Using the same key / driver profile. Anyone else have this?

Mine seems to stay on presets about 3/4 of the time; the rest of the time it defaults back to the listing of all stations on Sirius/XM and I have to restart the presets. Not a big deal but a minor annoyance.

A little offtopic, but related to radio.. anyone else noticed that everytime you enter the car and iDrive wakes up, the first notch you rotate on the knob controller it does nothing? Let's say i want to change to the next fm station and the first time touching the knob i always have to go 2 notches, after that it works normally with 1 notch. The little things...

I also have the same problem and it really annoys me Even the latest ISTA updates didn't solve it.

Three solutions:

1. press mic button and say "presets"
2. press media button; presets may come up; if not, press it once more. Then press presets button.
3. set one of your memory buttons for presets.
