Help from Honda XM owner please

[david_jr]

I posted this elsewhere but did not get a sloution so here goes:

We bought an 08 Accord and subscribed to XM after the trial period. I cannot seem to figure out how to make the song title display scroll like the radio in my Chrysler minivan does with radio station data. Anyone know if this is possible and if so how to do it?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Well, Good luck is all I can say. I have an '06 Honda Pilot and I went through the same thing when I got mine. I do not know if they have updated anything between then and the new units they have now.

I followed up on it back then both with my Honda Dealership and through Honda's Website, and was told that it will not scroll information. Doesn't make a lot of sense to have a Navigation unit with all the added features yet limit that portion of it on the Radio Screen.

It's always been an irritation to me.

My lease is up beginning of next year and whatever new car I end up in, I plan to get an aftermarket Navigation/Radio unit installed. They usually are worlds apart from the factory units.

I wish it was better news... sorry.

Thanks for the post. Looks like that is the reality.
