i got my CPO TL-S a couple weeks ago and am rocking out XM. is this a 30 day trial or something? nothing was mentioned when i bought the car. how can i find out how long i have left?

 

I had 3 months free on my CPO TL. I think that's the standard. Also, I let it run out, and within a month I got a flyer in the mail for $77 a year.

 

Not sure on CPO cars, but for new vehicles, the subscription is 3 months. I was actually under the impression that CPO cars did NOT get the same trial period? Hm...maybe it was a dealership perk. Either way, should be 3 months...! Congrats on your car purchase by the way!!!!!!!!!!! Good choice on the 6mt!

 

what if it isnt a trial and the previous owner left it in, how the heck do i know how long its good for? lol

 

I've always assumed that the previous owner paid for a certain amount of years, and when it runs out it runs out!
I bought the car in feburary and its still activated.
I guess you could always call and inquire, but with my luck they would find out and cancel it!

 

i hear ya. i dont even know how id call. would they need some type of ID off the radio or something?

 

Theres a couple of threads on here about xm renewal so i'm assuming that some how XM can track which cars its on, etc.
xmradio.com check it out!!!

 

i just bought my car used two days ago. i called and they gave me a new trial.

 

interesting. ill be pissed if i call and the dude had a 2 year subscription or something, lol.

 

I bought a Jetta from a local no-haggle dealership and a year and a half later when I traded it in for my 06 TL the XM was still working. The only thing I could think was it either had a lifetime subscription or multi-year and the previous owner just never called XM to cancel it. I've had my CPO TL for over a month now and the XM subscription is still going, so I figured its the 3 months trial. I'm also going to let it cancel and try out the $77/year deal. I don't listen to it enough to justify the real price.

i honestly didnt think id use xm but the jason ellis show and nhl channels are big hits for me

 

UPDATE: got a letter in the mail from acura, i have 90 days of xm including navtraffic. pretty sweet. ill probably re-up if they do the $77 thing.
