I've recently burned an MP3 CD and if I put it in and it plays from the beginning it works fine. As soon as I try and go to a different song it will play for 3-4 seconds then it gives me the following error "File / Track cannot be read". I burned the MP3 CD using iTunes 8 and my system is the standard 10 speaker system in an 06 530i.
Any help is appreciated!

2008 328I Convertible, Sapphire black on beige interior. Premium package, NAV, iPod adapter.
Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.

Did you verify the disc when you made it? I mean, many burn programs can be set to"verify" the disc after you burn it? Once, I ran "verify" and it failed near the end. I decided that I did not want to waste more time re-burning it and when I played it, it worked fine at the beginning but had the same error you mentioned above.
I will try and verify this next one, otherwise I guess I have another coaster!

Do a search, there's a thread with specific settings to use.
Some other things that might be a factor:
-laptop optical drives are inferior to desktop drives, so use a desktop burner if you have one
-burn at LOWEST speed allowable
-if you have old discs (2-3yrs) try getting a new pack of Sony, I was having trouble with some old Memorex that were read fine in a computer drive but was spotty in the car. I was gonna take it up w/the dealer but then decided to pick up a 50pk from Staples for $9 and haven't had any problems so far
