can any one throw any light on why BMW have stopped letting us play our cd changer randomly.
i had several cd changers in all my BMWs over the years and they have all played cd's at random.... but now with the new one we can only play tracks at random on a cd as opposed to random cd's....
Cheers for any info!!

I noticed this as soon as my car was delivered.
I believe, from this forum, that this is fixed by 16.2 software upgrade which allows you to 'select' all CD's at once and then choose the random function?
Worth pushing for an upgrade?

I got the fact that you can select 'all CD's' from a thread earlier today about what aditional features you get with version 16.2.
Just noticed your location by the way, I'm in Biggin Hill.
