There are 2 ways that I know of to get the disk out.

1. Remove the leads at the back of the unit, put them back in and immediately hold the eject button for about 2 minutes. May have to try this several times!

2. http://www.x5world.com/articles/all-...ion-drive.html
This works a treat and my preferred method!

Try burning the disk again, at the slowest speed possible and maybe with a different brand of disk. It's happened to me several times and just because it says there were no errors doesn't mean there wasn't some minor discrepency! The drives are very very picky with the disks!

Thanks Kam. I managed to get it out, don't know how just did. I pressed the button a few times and in the end it came out. I also burnt the CD at a slower speed and try flashing again, and it worked perfect. Only thing is the splash screen has now disappeared, then again I did flash to version 27. I'll try 29 next week. Im so glad I got this back to normal, I was dreading ringing BMW and somehow telling them that I messed it up.

Thanks again.

No worries mate, I got very scared myself the first time I buggered mine up, even more when it was a mates mk3! Was dreading shedding out a bucket load for a new system for him... luckily managed to get it sorted same as you.


It should default back to the standard BMW splash, might have to wait a few minutes so it resets itself before opening again...

I have a 2002 745i. I am having freezing problems and everyone suggested coming here and upgrading.

All the links for the V29 are not longer there. Can anyone please help to provide me with the correct link and instructions for my car.

Thanks all

V31 is the latest release. See this thread - http://www.x5world.com/navigation-sy...available.html
