    Most times when I leave my car, then return, (the time doesn't seem to make any difference), when the ignition comes on again, the radio station has changed, always from the same station, to the same station. I then scroll down the list to re-select. The car has the basic MMI. Do I just have a glitch that I'll have to live with?

    Are you using the same key to lock the car and then unlock it? The car remembers the radio station last tuned when you lock the car with a particular key so if you were swapping keys you may get this issue

    Yep, I always use the same key. Maybe the battery is getting low? just a thought.

    I can only assume its to do with the key setting as per John says.

    If you feel you need a fault code scan I'll be back in NI next week.

    Edit - ignore the key bit, seen you just replied. Feel free to ask for a scan though.
