2007 DBS?? Help
For the 2nd time since i have had my 2007 C6 Convertable (Got it in early august) the car starts fine but i find that my radio station presets are gone. Whats up with that? My car came from the dealer with a priority start type of device on top of the battery and i am wondering if my battery is going dead and the only thing starting the car is this device.
What do you think could be happening. The car is 100% fine other than the radio presets gone. This happened again Friday and then i did not drive it saturday but i did Sunday and all info was retained.
I am confused

Others have reported here that when they had a true DBS, the radio presets were not lost. They only had to reset the window indexing.
Sounds to me like you're occasionally using a different fob. The radio presets do get saved per fob AUTOMATICALLY.

Many times with this car, odd electrical gremlins can be dispatched by rebooting the car. Disconnect the battery negative for 10 minutes or more, then reset anything that was lost, like window indexing. That's all I lose doing this.

well you have all already explained the presets one as yes i was using another FOB that day, i did not know that coused that to happen.
That however has nothign to do with the fact my car was dead as a doornail today for no reason. could not even open a door. Had to use the key and pop the trunk
So one mystery solved but another still not.
