The BMW center was correct to advise you that the RDS (Radio Data System) is disabled. I am also sorry to hear of your dissatisfaction with the AM radio reception. Regrettably, no adjustment can be made to change the reception in your BMW.

The dealer advised me to store the favorite stations and use the memory buttons rather than tuning. This is NOT acceptable to me. Also, they told me that my car model software does not work correctly in displaying the song title and the artist on the display unit. Therefore, they disable it and told me that they do the same for all new cars. Is this true?

Hello,
I would like to ask for your thought on the fact that I spent nearly $60,000 on this vehicle and right from the start, this problem existed and yet I had not been advised. What could BMW do for me on this inconvenience for such a quite considerable outlay on the brand-name manufacturer?
Thank you so much for your prompt assistance

You should ask your local BMW service department to check if the antenna is connected. When I bought my 2001 330i, I also had radio reception problem. It turned out that the antenna was not connected.

Good luck.
