    Radio settings randomly changing?

    Hey everybody I recently purchased a 2010 S4 and am trying to get used to it but one thing baffles me. Has anybody had their radio sound settings (treble, bass...) randomly change? It's happened to me twice since owning the car for about a month now, is this a setting linked to the smart keys so different keys use different settings?

    I noticed what you set in regards to bass, treble or dsp settings for FM radio for example would be independent from the settings for cd audio or MP3/WAV playback. Not sure about the smart keys function. I always use the same one.

    i know certain functions are linked to each key. only way to find out is try it out and use different settings for each key.

    I haven't had my radio setting change, but what does change on mine about once a month is the ADS settings. My individual setting is for stiff ride and steering wheel, but comfort on engine and SD for good gas. Somehow the engine one goes back into auto randomly.

    I don't recall my radio settings change but I have had radio stations "disappear" from my FM list. They are in my preset but are missing from the FM station list. Selecting the station from my preset list returns it to the FM list--very weird.

    I think radio stations disappear if radio can not detect a signal
