Default Any way to set the default screen on the infotainment center?

Is there any way to keep the infotainment screen to stay on whatever tab you're on (e.g., audio) instead of reverting back to the "vehicle" tab after a few seconds? I really hate having to hit the "audio" tab every time I want to go to radio presets.

Don't think so, although the nav screen doesn't revert back to the 'home' screen, and I suspect the 2012+ backup camera view doesn't either (as long as you stay in R).
The designers apparently think the 'home' screen is the most interesting and take you there so you don't have to take your eyes off the road to change back to it.

Yes, you can change this. It won't default back to the Audio when you shut the car off but will keep you from moving back to Home in the duration of your trip.

Go to the following tabs:

VEHICLE -> SYSTEM SETTINGS -> DISPLAY
Look to the right, under the Home Screen Timeout select OFF.

When I bought my car I had to go back for some stuff from the sales rep and he told me that this could not be changed. Fortunately I did not believe him and bounced around in the menu long enough to figure this one out!

Thanks, Mark! You rock!
