I just purchased a 2008 H2 with Navigation and XM. When the vehicle is in motion I cannot scroll through the XM catagories.

Does anyone know of a way around this?

If this is not fixable I see no reason to keep the XM subscrition. It is bad enough that GM will not allow you to enter a destination into the NAV system in-motion but to stop you from scrolling XM is just stupid.

Why would they do this when you can scroll through AM and FM channels?

Definitely does not seem like a dealer issue. I can scroll through all the XM categories when I am not in-motion. But, as soon as the vehicle is in motion it is grayed out.
It seems to me that GM has too many lawyers working for them

The only information I was able to find in either the Owner’s Manual or Navigation Supplement was about a feature called “Limit Features while Driving”. The manual stated that my system “may have this feature”. Well it seems GM did not add this feature to the 2008 model and I cannot not change the settings. So once the vehicle goes over 5 MPH I lose the ability to scroll through XM categories and also to enter a destination into the navigation system.
If anyone can tell me a way to get around this I would be very grateful!
