I have just taken charge of a 318 compact yr 02. It has the standard C D system in the boot. Is there anyway this can be upgraded to take an MP 3 disc.

And does anyone no why has the compact got bad reviews?

Easiest way is to get an OEM CD Changer made after September 2005, they play MP3's and WMA's. Next easiest is to get something like an Alpine CHA-S634 (Physically almost identical to the OEM Changer), KCA-130B (AI-Net to MBus adapter) and an iBus -> MBus adapter from the likes of Soundgate, Connects2 etc.

there is a bit of kit i once fitted to an e46 that made it so a 12 disc JVC Mp3 changer could be fitted and it also gives track info on the display. OR better yet you can get a piece of kit (Dice or Desions) that plug stright onto the bmw leads in the boot giving you FULL ipod control best of all its plug and play so you could fit it your self.
