Default Steering wheel CD changer button (merged threads)

i was messing around in my car today and i never knew the lexus can do this. Havnet seen it in any other cars that i have. When you hold down then seek button on the steering wheel it changes the cd. You have to hold it down for about 3 sec tho....

yeah, I found that out by accident about 2 weeks ago. It really is helpful when you got a dash full of CD's.

accidentally found out last month. For radio mode, if you hold it for 3 sec it will search instead jumping to the next preset station.......

I found this option when I try to fast forward a song using the control on the steering wheel.

I hate this feature. I wish it would change to the next folder of an mp3 disc instead of changing the whole disc.

I hardly use my CD player. I only use it when my iPod runs out of batteries. Cool to know though.
