The BMW center was correct to advise you that the RDS (Radio Data System) is disabled. I am also sorry to hear of your dissatisfaction with the AM radio reception. Regrettably, no adjustment can be made to change the reception in your BMW.

Hello,
I would like to ask for your thought on the fact that I spent nearly $60,000 on this vehicle and right from the start, this problem existed and yet I had not been advised. What could BMW do for me on this inconvenience for such a quite considerable outlay on the brand-name manufacturer?
Thank you so much for your prompt assistance
