Presets disappeared then re-appeared
Hi,
My 2011 MINI Clubman is about three weeks new. It's outfitted with MINI Connected + Nav.
I'm a runner and this morning I drove to Rancho Palos Verde to do some hill work. The area is poor for FM radio reception. I was listening to KPCC till it faded out; I parked, did my 12 miles and returned to the car. All my presets were gone! I was a little frustrated and as I drove home I started to re-store all my faves. All of a sudden I looked at the preset list and everything was restored.
Anyone else experience this?

Yes, this happens occasionally because for some reason the car forgets your FOB. Your radio presets, AC temperature, and the BC customizations (like the triple blinker, DRL, unlock settings, etc) are customizable for each FOB.
Usually the next time you start the car everything will be back to normal.

Happened again today. The common activity is use of the key insert that slides into the fob. When I go running I just take the key insert and leave the rest in the car. So I end up locking and then unlocking with the mechanical key.
Then I start the car normally with the fob inserted in the dash. And this time only three presets were still there.
The remainder were not restored so I restored them.
A little annoying.

The problem I see here from one of you is that you use the mechanical key to open the car thus the FOB is not seen and thus there are no presets. This should be able to be rectified by unlocking the car with the mechanical key then lock and unlock with the FOB. This should restore all presets that were set in the FOB
