mtk540 3 Report post Posted August 18, 2008 Ditto what rotty said ! Seems there are a few E39 540's being purchased of late - and black too. Wait for Hotwire or Jochen to reply but as Glenn says I don't think you can display the correct frequency with our model unit. There is also a good thread on setting up the TV as well.

hotwire 352 Report post Posted August 18, 2008 Yep welcome - E39 in Black & 540I - sounding good! As mentioned - band expanders = CRAP in these vehicles. Can help you with both radio & nav but there is no "cheap fix" for them Glenn has posted my work number or PM me for options Cheers Grant Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
