Hi,

I've got "standard" BMW audio on my F30 320d SE but with the DAB radio. I've had the basic audio options on many cars before (VW, Fiat, Rover, Ford) so thought the BMW would be O.K.

However, I'm really unimpressed with the audio and wondered whether there is actually something wrong (although dealer says otherwise). Basically, two problems; firstly the bass is EXTREME - even with the bass slider turned down in the tone settings, it's still quite noticeable. When set to the default level in the tone settings, it quite obviously causes speaker buzzing and distortion. Second problem is that maximum volume level is still not overly loud when set to max and, when it is at maximum, audio range is poor - bass is overpowering, and tone range limited.

On a different note, I've noticed that when I loose DAB signal, the radio doesn't automatically switch to FM, even though the option is set on the radio. Again, other cars that have had DAB seem to cope with loss of signal causing a switch to FM.

Any advice?
