Love my '06 M35X so when the car had a softball size dent in the quarter panel I got it repaired along along with a re-do of the front bumper. The shop did a great job but the sat radio wasn't working after I picked it up it and I didn't realize it until later that evening after the shop was closed. Cost me $55 bucks to have the dealer diagnose it ( that was a deal for a Saturday visit to the dealer) and get it working again with a warning that if it stops working in the next week or so the module will have to be replaced. Now I know in order to make the repair the shop had to do some welding of "pins or something" to attach the "gizmo" to pull out the dent. :confused:

Is it possible that the welding caused a power surge to screw up the sat radio? Thanks

I'm not sure about this, BUT I would definitely bring it up to the body shop. If that doesn't work, I would file a BBB (Better Business Bureau) complaint. I've had similar issues when I dropped off my car for simple work at dealerships or other reputable shops. Every time I've always had the "problem" fixed by the company that was working on my car. I hope this helps and you get everything sorted out.
