Not sure if it is the same one as in the Zeds, but it is a fairly common problem on them.

I don't know what causes it, but the solution I've heard of to get the cartridge back out is to insert a credit card underneath the cartridge - the cartridge should just pop out.

I haven't tried it, so can't vouch if it works.

Does it have power? Can you hear it whirring and trying to eject the cartridge when you press eject?...Assuming it's a genuine BMW change (made  by Alpine)?
