Strange Nav issue, won't eject DVD, asks for Code

I am having this strange issue ONLY with 2 of the 06 production date MK4 I have (I think it's the units, since one of them I used the BMW original 27.1 and the other I downloaded a 27.1) , all the other
older MK4 unit didn't have the issue.

I just installed and upgraded to a Mk4(From Mk3, later 01 production x5), also upgraded to a BMW original 27.1 disc, everything went well. The only strange thing is when I finished upgrade the O.S. I got a message like Nav locked or something, but again everything works fine, even got the 3D graphics.

The problem I have it when I try to eject the DVD map, I get this screen on the monitor asking for a 4 digit code. I don't think it's the radio code, since the radio works fine as well, and I can also make this screen go away by press enter without entering any digit.

However, everytime I try to eject the disc, I get this screen and the disc won't come out, like it's locked in the Nav drive.

I took it to my good dealer today, they didn't have any idea either, but are looking into it for me.

I wonder if there is a security option that will prevent someone from taking a disk?

Thanks for any help you may be able to offer.

I've never seen this before!! Interesting... have you tried the usual codes - like 0000, 1234, 9999 ?

It looks like the screen where you enter the engine immobilizer code

Well, I dunno if this helps, but here are the messages that are near this message in the nav software:
  • "ENTER CODE"
  • "Code incorrect"
  • "Interlock cancelled. CD/DVD can now be ejected."
  • "Navigation CD/DVD blocked"
So what exactly is "Interlock"?

Yes, the screen did say "Navigation CD/DVD blocked" when it first finished O.S. upgrade, then the message went away and I put in the map DVD, everything works normal, ONLY when I try to eject, the code screen pops up.

Your navigation unit from "RENT A CAR".
Read the CODE with GT1 (BMW SERVICE COMPUTER).
Your DEALER know clear this option (RENT).

BMW-dodi,

Thanks for the great info, my dealer found the code for me, and it works great.

Have not hooked to the GT1 to disable the Interlock yet, at least I can used the code to unlock it for now.

Thanks.
