I have a 2009 aveo Lt and I got a subscription for xm satellite with the car but there is no way to pull up xm band on the cars stereo. I called the dealer and they said the car doesn't have xm then but I thought all 09 and newer aveos were equipped with it. What do I have to do to use the subscription, just change stereos or is there some other way I can go about it other than the fm transmitter?,would like to take advantage of this service if I can make it work
is it the mp3 radio? hit the band button, it cycles am fm then xm?
it is the mp3 radio, i hit the band button and all that comes up is am and fm, i never have seen a band for xm on there no matter what i try
does your Car have OnStar? they usually pair the XM with the OnStar so they can combine the 3 Different antennas the car needs into the One Multi-Band Antenna.
base aveo has the onstar too..
your mp3 is not the premium CD is it? just mp3 am/fm radio? i do not think that radio is xm ready iirc.
unless the moron ordering the car checks the 'ONSTAR DELETE' Box. (Like Enterprise did with MY aveo...)Quote:

according to my Digital copy of my 2010 Owner's manual, the logo underneath the MP3 Logo is the Compact Disc Logo. The XM logo SHOULD Be under that one (if your radio has either the single Disc or 6-Disc Changer) Its on the Opposite side if its just the AM/FM/XM Radio.Quote:
