Switching Between AM and FM Using Steering Controls?

Can you switch between bands using the steering controls on a HSE, can't seem to do it?

What does the "MODE" button do on a HSE, then? Neutral

.....which will take far longer than it takes to move your left arm across and push a button on the radio. Add in all the "sorry" replies from voice control and you need to plan about 10 minutes ahead should you wish to change channel Whistle

The trick with voice command is to whisper sweet nothings to her, if you talk out loud or start to shout at her you are in sorry city!

id@53 - good second choice with the Alfa GT Wink Just don't compare the fuel consumption of the Disco and the GT!

Confused Nope, mine only switches from CD to Radio and back. It knows nothing about the AUX (and I've the iPod thingy installed) and changing radio bands.
