2009 XM Radio Question

Post by twistedwaffle »

Just recently purchased my first vehicle (2009 Pontiac Vibe), and I've been trying to figure out if it has XM Radio. After reading through dozens of posts I haven't quite found a solid answer. According to many people, this came standard in these vehicles, however I'm unable to find out how to access it. When I press the "CAT" button, it says, "XM Radio feature only". Is there a way to determine if it has XM Radio?

Thanks!

It was standard in the US. I don't think it was for Canada. You need to press the BAND button. It will cycle through AM-FM-XM. If you don't have it I doubt it will even come up XM, just AM-FM.

Yup. XM isn't a standard feature here. If it doesn't come up by pushing the Band button then you probably don't have it.
