If you do a search there's lots of discussion on MP3 capability.

It is possible if enabled and if the disc is burned correctly.

When the CIP software was updated and the function enabled by the dealer... yes.

Not totally true as I recall. For cars built before 09/04 (I think that's the date), you have to have the Navigation option to ensure you have the proper hardware. There is a SIB on the forum outlining the details, but I recall that my Jan '04 car without Nav could not get MP3 activated...

Edit: Sorry, it's Sept '05. Here is the SIB outlining the issue and how to activate.
