OK but tell them you have already paid for it and it don't work., Do what Jay77 advises and take along an mp3 cd or dvd to try and be prepared to argue with them, Good luck.

+1000, I spent an hour arguing with the dealer when they proudly informed me they had coded it and I had a duff cd full of mp3s... in the end only way I could convince them was to get them to bring another car round to the front and popped my mp3 cd in their car and it worked so clearly showing they have not coded the car properly.
As Blood says the only sure way of knowing if it was coded would be to get the VO read out by them and ask them to verify KMP3 was added..
If you have access to a mp3 compatible car /hi fi put it in and see if it recognises the tracks if so you can rule out the cd..if the dealership wont play ball try somewhere else...and take the cd with you so they can test it before giving the car back to you..

i finally had time to go back to the dealer and told the service advisor that they needed to add the KMP3 and the update alone wasn't enough!!.... the answer i got was based on year,make and model of the car. if we try to retrofit MP3 and add the mp3 playback i will end up losing my whole CCC in the middle of the process!!!
so basically the guy said system will shutdown and ask them to instal a new ccc![Frown](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/sad.gif)
i personally don't believe it.... can anyone help me?
