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)? -------------

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. -------------  |
