The radiobuttons "MODE" and "AM/FM" are not reassignable, you got the MODE also onto steering wheel and at German cars the button is divided at the radio to "TMC". Also the satellite radio wont work but the HD resolution.
To enable traffic messages which are displayed onto the nav screen but wont read by announcer via radio you have to set the parameters from US to ECE, change the frequency value to 50us and another value to nicht_aktiv.
What equipment group do I need to enable speed limit information?
