    So, on my 2017, the audio functions on the steering wheel are different than the ones on my 2014. When I found a HD radio station, I could use the left arrow pad, to go through the HD channels on that station. On my 2017, I can't do that because the up and down change the station and the leaf and right do the volume. The right pad changes the display on the instrument cluster. Haven't figured out how to change hd channels. Anyone figured this out?

    I beleive you have to have the channels saved in your presets in order to work.
    If you are asking what im thinking.

    Yep. I figured it out. When on an HD station, use the station changing knob and it will scroll through however many channels, are on that hd station.

    Please share some knowledge. It could be I'm in Maine and we don't have shit for HD radio stations, but are you saying that when I am on an HD station, there are more than one station from that particular radio station?

    Maybe. If yer on an HD station, look about 11 o'clock on on the display and see it there's small numbers in boxes. If so, use the right tuner knob and go through them.

    Correct. That was one of the benefits of the move to HD on both television and radio - the channels are wide enough to support several sub channels. Usually, this sub channel carries more targeted programming (sports, second language, local topics, etc.). Some stations however rent this bandwidth to data carriers and no consumer broadcast is offered there.
    walther-shooter is correct to look for the display of additional sub channels. You may find you enjoy them more than the main channel.
