Hi,
I think there is a cd stuck in my cd player, maybe 2 but im not sure.
Everytime i try to eject the cd it makes a funny noise tries ejecting but nothing comes out. It is the CD slot above the DVD player. Does anyone know what the problem could be or how to remove it? Also how to take the cd player out of the dash???
Thanks
Harry

Did you try power cycling the idrive? Try pressing down on both eject buttons (the one for the cd player and the one for
the DVD rom) and the volume control button all at the same time to power cycle the idrive... if done correctly your idrive
will power down then restart and should eject both discs momentarily..

Harry,

Remove the trim panels as per:

You'll then be able to remove the CD drive for dismantling.
