Exclamation FM Presets

I have a question:

I only get 6 preset FM stations and I normally use about 8 - 10 stations. So having to scan stations is a pain. Is there a way to add the number of FM presets?


Car is a GS430 with ML Nav.

Not sure if it's different for ML but use FM1 and FM2.

I don't have FM1 and FM2

I had a Passat prior to the GS and it had FM1 and FM2

I think my wife's Prado has that as well

So what happens when you press the FM button twice that is on the front of the radio by the tape deck ??

Yeah, I thought they all had fm1 and fm2. It would be nice if you could get 2 presets per touchscreen button like many systems with hard buttons have.

Nothing ...

You don't get FM2 by pressing the button twice.

So I presume voice command 'FM Radio 2' doesnt work either. I thought all systems came with fm1 and fm2 but that must not be true.

I've got an 06 GS430 with ML, DVD, NAV and i've got FM2 by pressing the FM button. The manual doesn't say anything about the FM2 being optional. You should get it checked out. What kind of Nav override did you do?
