I would like to get a used 530 and want one with Logic 7. Are there any easily identifiable ways to determin if car has Logic 7.

it tells u with the idrive system if u can do surround sound or not. Or sit in a car that has logic 7 and then in ur car. if there's a big difference, then u dont have logic 7

Look for the center channel speaker in middle of the dashboard.

From the iDrive main menu press the controler and choose audio, rotate the controller until you get to surround sound, will say Logic 7. Or look for that center speaker in the dash.

are you in the US? the premium sound package included the Logic7 and the changer. granted, someone could add the cd changer as a dealer installed option on the non L7.

and after looking at the centre speakers what are we looking for???

does the logics 7 system has the amp in the boot?

and if my car is not the logics 7 system, why does it still have the speakers under the seats

they both have speakers under the seat, the L7 ones are bigger and hooked up to a more powerful amplifier.

Interesting!! I have a center speaker in the middle of the dashboard, but I was told I have a "BMW Professional" system. There's no "L7" tab in Idrive. Hmmmm! I wonder if I have it and all I need is a software patch for it. Any ideas?

Sure there's a speaker and not just a hole for the speaker?
