Have you got the latest software?  Don’t assume it has it, the car was made some months ago and will come with whatever came out of the box in production. Your dealer needs to install it.

Hi. Thanks for the quick reply. I should have mentioned i had apple android auto fitted so i believe they update the software. Maybe the update induced the bug?!

Aye, talk to the dealer about that.

Dinhill, have you saved your stations?

I updated mine a few weeks back myself and can confirm the same issue.  Pretty certain it's a software bug as mine was fine prior to that.  Remembers favourites ok so I use that as the workaround.  Having said all of that, it appears to be improving a few weeks in - don't ask me why.  My hope is that a S/W update will catch the bug.

This happened again last week, only this time I was already on the move. The radio just stopped, when i checked the volume was set to 0. When I then selected FM (I was on DAB) it went to 88.5FM with no station and I had to reset Bass/Treble etc. Def a bug.

My audio settings have been resetting to default at random. It's not just me then - thought I was going senile ::)

It’s after unplugging the phone from CarPlay that mine plays up.

I'm on 70.00.100 with no Apple Carplay or AA, so could be unrelated to whether we have CP/AA bits?

Sounds like it Jonno.  Mine always does it after unplugging the phone from AC so thought it was related.
