This is the only beef I have with the stock system, but it's a big one. I listen to a lot of jazz and weird 70's experimental rock (i.e., Can, Pink Floyd), and there are plenty of times when I would LOVE to know whether 5 minutes have elapsed, or 25 minutes. Is this too much to ask of BMW? Do the stock systems on the 3-series have the same problem?

Just curious,
Chris

i hate that too!
it's time for me to replace it anyway.
i feel bad for the people with the H/K system.
it's not as easy to just replace the head!
