RDS on E39 :S
I have an E39 525i with Widescreen and TV, no satnav.
On my X5 i can push INFO and it displays RDS and TP, but when i push the same button on my E39 nothing shows up in the screen. Shouldn't the E39 2001 have RDS? Or is my radio module too old or something? How do i get into the radio service menu? I can seem to do it with any of the combinations?

If your E39 is newer that 09-2001, simply go into the Service Mode and change the AREA from OCEANIA to EUROPE - then all RDS features will be enabled. You may also see an RDS option, turn on as required.
If your car is older than 09-2001, you have an old-gen C23 OCEANIA radio fitted. This is non-programmable and has no RDS. It must be replaced for RDS to work. Remove it and replace with a BM24 BMW PROFESSIONAL RDS or a BUSINESS RDS radio module from Europe Easy to find 2nd hand Or otherwise upgrade to a new-gen radio, fit the BM54 PROFESSIONAL RDS and enjoy RDS & Aux-In capabilities and much more.
