Trouble tuning stations on Bmw radio

    I have a bmw e46 with a business radio. My problem is that I can only tune in on the odd numbers & most radio stations tune on the even number. (ie; 2fm will only tune in on 91.6 & I can only tune to 91.5 or 91.7)Is there a way to change the tuner to the even number. I have tried auto tuning but it still only looks on the odd number.

    Thanks.

    You can change the region on the radio, sounds like it's set for US.

    You should be abe to find instructions on the Internet. If you can't find them I think they are on the wds cd, i can pm them to you.

    Might it have come from Japan via the UK?

    Top Google result.....

    -Turn the radio ON with ignition off and press the M button for about 10 seconds.
    -The hidden menu will appear.
    -When you scroll through the menue, (with the -/+ buttons) stop on USA and use the arrows to change regions, stop in EUR, and hit hit the M button.
    -The radio will then reset itself. Turn it off and ON again. You will be able to use the frequencies you are looking for.

    Note than any stations stored in the memory will be erased.
