Just had a dension 500 fitted and it doesnt work

Though the dealer said it had the cdc pre fitting kit installed i am not sure it actually does

I guess i need to get the idrive milarky MP3 enables but my dealer seems reluctant saying they wont support non BMW add ons

Bit fed up really ... Can the dealer refuse ... and if he does relent, how much does it cost ?

late 05 car by the way

From 03/2005 it's possible to enable MP3 on all BMWs.
Which HU you have, Business or Professional?

That one, with the smaller 6.5" display cannot handle text on CD Changer port.
So you should use the "BMW non-text" DIP-switch setting (off-on-off-off), as written in Install Manual.
