Try your current CDs in someone elses E60 to check out if it is the CD or the CD changer.
If your friends are not so smart to have an E60 :thumbsdown: , you can always go to the dealer for this test.

If it is just your CD changer, then its a dealer problem (if you still have warranty, if not : ), if the CD does not play at the dealer, you know your CD has a problem. You may want to try and burn the CD at slower speed, or even use better quality CDs, and if all that does not work, your PC CD burner (or the software) may have a problem !

Happy testing !

Been having some issues with my 6 disk changer (have posted a few other questions but, still can't figure it out). My 6 disk changer won't play my burned cd's. It will play store bought and also cd's that I burned a year or two ago (and I don't know what software I was using back then. I have tried to burn using Roxio, real player and nero. They work in the in dash and they worked in my 530i that I just traded in but, no luck with my new car's changer???? I called the service dept. and they are so clueless, he told me that the 6 disk just is not up to date yet???? I don't think I believe that especially because my older burned cd's are working fine!!!! Does anyone have a 6 disk changer with no nav.(I don't know if that matter's) that is playing burned audio cd's?

If so what software and settings are you using?
My missus had this prob..it was down to the fact thet she at the prompt in the software (and most packages ahve this equivelant step) "what kind of disk do you want to create?" was in the habbit of selecting MP3 (fine for my car and playing on the media Juke Box, no good for CD stackers. So just incase you arnt selecting the right type of disk to create, make sure for your CD stacker to work you select - music CD

Hope that was of help, easy thing to do.

Thank you everyone for all of your tips. I am going to try some and see if it works and if not I will go to the dealer's next. One more question for everyone......Do any of you get cd text to show up in the in dash player when using an audio cd NOT MP3?

No cd text from music cd's either on the changer or the dash.

No text for me, zip - nothing. Good luck, it seems like they should be playing for you.

Checked mine today CDs burned on Nero & Roxio both played without issue in both the 6-disc changer and the single slot CD player.
