Problems with new XM activation on my new g35x
I just got my X today.
Before I left the dealership I asked about XM activation and was told to just call or go online. I tried going online but it won't accept my 9 digit phone number.
So, I called up XM and tried activating by phone, but they told me I need to tell my dealership to call to get the first 3 months free. So now, I'm back to square one.
Is anyone else having problems activating XM or is it just me?
I'll post pictures of my car as soon as possible. It's going to rain for the next few days so it might be a little while before I get to it.

hmm I totally forgot about this. I'm only getting 3 channels on XM right now and no nav. I'm assuming this might mean my XM also hasnt' been hooked up.
I ran away with the car immediately after purcahsing it because I had to get back to work; so perhaps the dealership didn't get a chance to activate it for me, any ideas guys?

But when I sign up for an online account, it doesn't work. It can't find my radio ID. And I can't get XM traffic working.

You cannot get XM traffic working, or cannot get XM traffic activated?
