We have a 2025 ST and I have favorited stations on Sirius. But, down at this circled bar in the photo are stations I did not favorite. How do I get those to go away? I want to scroll using my steering wheel and only see the station that I have favorited. Is that even possible? sirius.jpg

Tune into the channel you want. Then touch and hold your finger there for a few seconds.

The way the favorites are saved is less than optimal. I would think there would be a way to re-order them by just holding the button and sliding it left or right but nope. I also think there'd be a way to delete stations you don't want but again, there doesn't appear to be. I think you need to manually select the Sirius channel and hold the button to save it where you want it on the favorites bar. I have my favorites randomly saved and am planning to spend some time re-organizing them in order of the stations I listen to the most to least but as far as I can tell there is no easy way to do it. For stations you don't want you'll have to re-program a new favorite over them if I'm not mistaken. It would be nice if you could just loop through the favorites but it seems like the station bar is infinite and there are a bunch of random stations when I get past the ones that I've programmed. It could definitely be better and more customizable.

It would be very nice. My previous vehicle, a 2019 Mazda CX-9 GT's Sirius tuner allowed you to just make a favorites list which could include FM stations too and you could arrange the order of them quite easily. The other thing you could do was if you hit a station with a song you liked playing halfway through you could "rewind" the station to the beginning of the song or you could skip a song you didn't want to hear; none of which is available in the ST even though it's 6 years newer and has a presumably more sophisticated infotainment system.

Back again; so I was driving today and played with the Sirius radio and I was wrong, the favorites are not "infinite" as I previously stated and will loop if you FF enough through the stations saved. I still haven't figured out how to delete anything I don't want though.
