The problem lies within the NAV unit - the XM Direct is not compatible with Navigation-equipped vehicles, regardless of model year.

How have you determined your HU wasn't Sirius ready? Here's how you can tell:

1. Turn on your car
2. If the radio is on, turn it off
3. Turn the radio on
4. Immediately push and hold the SELECT button until the radio serial number shows (5 to 10 seconds)
5. Use the < > keys to cycle through the menu

Look for a screen that says "SOFTWARE VERSION' and let me know what numbers you see.

* Turn the radio off to save the settings.
* Turn the radio back on and use it as normal.
