Comand and DAB Traffic questions

[niva441]

Evening All

I've been using a C class coupe W204 for a couple of months and think I'm starting to get used to it, although I'm not convinced it is wholly better than the system that came with my last Volvo. Mostly I find it is less good at reviewing the route as the Volvo could track the planned route, at least I found out last week how to interrogate the traffic symbols on the map.

However back to my questions. On Friday I checked the next direction at a comfortable distance heading into a roundabout, only to find the direction and recommended lane changing when I was virtually on top of the roundabout. Is possible to increase the amount of warning of turnings?

Also since changing to using the DAB tuner, I only get traffic announcements from Classic FM. Previously I used to get BBC regional announcements which were useful (and locally relevant) as I travel cross country (apart from BBC WM, which you need to travel seemingly a long way to escape). Is there a way to change the traffic to the station and you are listening to?

Thanks
