Default Does my Q5 have Sirius Satellite radio capabilities?

I recently traded for a 2010 Q5. It has the premium plus pkg with nav. I was going get my Sirius subscription transferred over to the Q5 but I don't see Satellite as an option using the MMI. Should my vehicle have Sirius capabilities or was it an option back in 2010?

According to the 2010 Audi Q5 brochure, Sirius Satellite Radio comes standard on all trim lines. It should be under the "RADIO" source menu. Refer to your car's MMI User Guide for details.

When you press the radio button it goes to the band last used. Press again it goes to next band. Am fm Sirius.

Mine shows up under the Radio button then the top right soft button (Band) displays all sources (AM, FM & Sirius)

Weird. Maybe your Q5 was originally delivered in Canada? Not sure if Sirius comes standard in the Canadian version.

I'm guessing your 2010 MMI controls look something like this?
I'm using my 2014 as an example.




One push of the "Radio" button brings up this:
Your last played source (AM, FM or Sirius)




Then one push of the upper right soft key (labeled in yellow first pic) brings up this:



You should be getting these 3 sources.
Hope this helps.
