Hey guys I have a question here. When I use the big dial on the center console to browse my ipod, I noticed when it comes to a long album name or song name, it would only display a partial name due to the limited space on the screen. I thought it would scroll the name if I leave it highlighted for a couple of seconds, but it will not. Does anyone know if there's a way to let the name scroll? It bothers me since I have a bunch of albums like Heavy Metal Collection CD1/CD2/CD3 and they all look the same on the screen.

Btw I have a 09 non-tech so I have a smaller screen. I don't know if this is an issue on Tech model since it has a bigger / higher resolution screen.

The display does not scroll. It can display a total of 31 characters, but only 16 at a time. It will initially display the first 15 characters and a right arrow indicating there are more characters. Press and hold TITLE to see the next 16 characters. Press and hold TITLE again to see the first 15 characters again. I'm pretty sure the cars with nav do not have this limitation, as they display all artist/song info simutaneously on the main nav screen no matter how long the names are.

wow thanks. I tried the TITLE button but never thought of holding it. Thanks for the info.

Um ... is this in the manual? If not, you've found a bona fide Easter egg (undocumented feature or function).

Add to the "Easter egg" thread if so....

It is in the manual. Page 192.
