I don't believe that you need to "log into the car's nav system" to listen to XM.

Simply, change the audio source to SAT, and boom, play whatever you want.

Unless you are referring to your car's XM radio ID, tune to station 0000. It will be displayed there.

if car came with the 3 month subscription the dealer should have uploaded the cars ID to XM for activation. No other log in is required. Worse case go to station 0000 like mentioned above and give XM a call. a 3 month credit should be attached to the ID with them.

Also, near the end of your free trail you’ll get a letter from SiriusXM that includes a channel guide and an explanation of your options.

I believe they also offer a select few stations for ~$10 a year. You might wanna check that option out too.

In case you don't wanna pay for ALL the stations, you can pay for the ones you really want.

* Not sure what stations are available with this tho*

If you get tired of being ripped off by Sirius/XM, jjust google "sirius xm 6 months renewal" and save a few.

Does that price give all stations?

if you negotiate enough, you can get practically anything from sirius xm for practically nothing. they're desperate for business.

Yes, it includes all stations. I have to remember to call and cancel or it will automatically renew at $19.99 a month. But I have been told when you call to cancel they will continue to offer a promo similar to 5 for 25.
