    On the steering wheel, left side, there are up and down buttons to scroll through your preset FM channels. Can I use up and down buttons to scroll through the SiriusXM channels. When I listening to SiriusXM channels and use the buttons, it scrolls through only the FM preset channels. Anyone experience the same issue?

    So when you use the buttons while listening to Sirius it switched to FM?

    I only have 3 or 4 FM presets, and AM preset and then a few SiriusXM presets. When I use the up and down arrows it scrolls through all of the presets one at a time starting from number 1 down through the rest. So mine scrolls through everything that is preset, not just one particular group.

    Yea it scrolls through just your presets I'm pretty sure. That would be awesome if you could scroll through just the xm channels. It sure is a pain to surf the channels.

    This. Select your favorite S/XM channels as presets after your FM ones, and it’ll scroll through those as well.

    Huh. Been trying to figure out how to do that. Mine just goes through the presests. I never listen to AM/FM, so it's all SirusXM presets in there, which isn't a huge deal. My wife's RAV4 is the same, and she has a mix of FM and XM presets and it's rather annoying going through them all.

    In some respect, I feel like my 15 SR headunit had more control from the steering wheel controls than my 2020 does, but maybe I just haven't messed around with it enough.

    I favorited almost every XM channel so when I use the scroll buttons it’s almost as if it is scanning channels lol.
