My Ride: E60 monacoblau metallic, steptronic, leatherette beige, xenon, business.
Default

Hi,

Today I have taken my e60 to make a reprogramation of the BMW Business radio with single CD player because it doesn't read mp3 files. I hope they fix it and this way I can use my compilations.

Does anybody have this problem?

Bye.

I too have new E60 with Business audio and single CD player (and no Nav). It too does not play MP3.
The dealer cannot (will not fix it). I am still waiting for them to come back to me for two weeks now (mind you I have not been in the country).

They said it is optional extra (i.e. I should have bought the Pro Audio). The only reason I am waiting is for them is to show a gesture of good will as the car had to go in 3 times in the first 3 weeks of receiving it.

Let us all know how you get on.

I have no Nav I got the HUd and nothing more about Mp3. Before ordering my dealer said if we add Radio Pro (2 tuners-damn usefull in tunnels here) than w sw I will have Mp3 so was an extra 300+VAT and from day 1 I had Mp3. Ask if they can change or retrofit? But that will be 3X now than the time you could order it from factory. What about aux-in- I got that too and plannig to have a hdd player for movies, mp3s and all, on long journey just tired of cds

Tell the dealer to retro-fit the business nav, then you will get prof radio, navigation and MP3

Navi Business is very easy to retro-fit !

If it works please let us know!
Here in Portugal, Business Radio is standard and because I didn't want NAV I don't have MP3. I thought MP3 only worked with Pro Radio so this would be EXCELENT new (if it works).
