Computer Problem (SOS system failure) on my new X6
I only have 2,100 miles on my X6 xDrive50i, and I'm already in for my first service. While sitting in park, with the radio on, I opened the tailgate to load my snowboards. After closing the trunk, the radio went off and all the internal audio and bluetooth functions went with it. The car runs fine, and A/C and navigation still work, but AM/FM radio, Sirius Satellite, AUX, and Bluetooth all don't function. I have the SOS service, so I hit the button and spoke to their rep, she couldn't identify where my vehicle was (Part of the service), and told me there was nothinig they could do, I had to birng it in for repair. Unfortunately, no one in the service department at South Bay BMW has even worked on an X6, much less a SOS Sytem problem. Considering what I have spent and put into the car (I have every single extra and option available on this vehicle, including after market illuminated door sills & powder coated wheels), I am beyond frustrated. Any ideas?

Sorry to here this , unfortunately you have to take it to the service guys , ya doesn't thrill me either. I don't have that much confidence that folks with knowledge of electronic circuits are being hired by the service dept.
I use to live in Hermosa (the strand near 16th), miss the beach but not LA.
