CD was stuck in player - now cannot load cd?
first of all I would like to introduce myself, Richie from Ireland. I drive an E39 M5 with MkIII cd based nav. I tried to eject the nav cd because I just bought a new 2008 one but it would not come out, made a lot of strange noises, like a plastic gear slipping. I tried holding the eject button but nothing happened, I tried disconnecting the battery in the hope it would reset something but no joy. So, I removed the nav unit and took the top cover off to have a look, I could see the cd and on looking closer I noticed that the edges of the cd were damaged (it was perfect when I put it in). I connected the power back to the unit and it tried to eject making the same horrible noise, the cd was just showing at the front slot, just enough that I could get a grip with my finger nails, as the unit was trying to eject I applied a small amount of pulling pressure and the cd came out. Happy days - I thought! However, when I tried to load the new cd it would only take it in half way, I tried a few times carefull not to force anything but no luck. I found a link here http://www.xoutpost.com/articles/all-...ion-drive.html but there really wasn't anything to help other than trying to wind the tray by hand. Do any of you guys have a picture of the top of the nav unit with the top cover removed and no disc installed? I want to make sure all tabs/gears etc are in the correct position before I try anything else? Any other help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Richie. |

Richie - did you figure this one out?
I have the exact same problem. Can't get a disc in. I have no nav and no radio and I am desperately trying to get an older OS disc in to try to get it to spin up. It's like the damn drive is locked shit. Won't take a disc in... Can I manually feed it in? Thanks, Matt |
