Anybody has a problem with the 6 CD changer trying to repeatedly change the CD whilst the car is parked overnight?

Mine did this a couple of weeks ago and drained the battery.

Car is over 3 years old, out of warranty & never had this prob before and is on Progman 25.

The known issue was the CD continuing to spin on after stopping, that was on a TSB and sorted by 25.

================================================

No not that problem with my 6 disc unit in my glove box...(YET!!!) but my 6 disc icons on my idrive screen at times will not light up sometimes allowing me to change CD's which is annoying, when trying to show it off in front of my girlfriend, or a business client, and I cant get it to fail in front of the BMW SA, got any suggestions how I can get their attn, before my BMW "bumper to bumper" 4yr/50,000 mile warranty. runs out this month? But I am beginning to have battery drained "LOW" problems that coming up on my idrive screen sometimes. (I just had the TCU unit replaced last month and still having the problem)

Thanks in advance!!

Had this problem about a month after I purchased my CPO car. It happened on a Saturday afternoon by Sunday battery was drained. I ended up getting an OEM replacement battery out of pocket --- since I had a meeting to go to first thing Monday AM. However I'm taking the car in early this week and will definitely tell my SA about it.

Since then I've taken the CD-magazine out.
