I have a 318ti and need to know what CD changer is compatible with the OEM radio. When I press the 'PROGRAM' buttom and the '-' button the code 'P 102' comes up...Also need to know where I can find the prewired CD changer wire....
Any recommondation on an Internet site to purchase the CD Changer at a cheap price...
Thanks in advanced....

What year is the car?
If you have the business radio with the weather band I believe that is I-bus. It started late 96. If you do not have the weather band, that's the non I-bus.

As far as I know those CD changers are No Longer Available.
You can call around dealers.
You are probably going to have to replace the head unit and run a cable to the trunk for the CD.
Maybe Crutchfield will have an answer, but I doubt it.

I have a 95 318ti. I recently changed it to the c43 headunit which is from a 99 m3. I also have the stock trunk cd changer. I brought the headunit without thinking about it working or not, on the idea that all e36 are identical, in the audio system-wise. Now I read about my stock system being a m-bus and the c43 hu is a i-bus. Is there anyway other than stripping the cable from my car and replacing it with another cable?
Is there a way to re-wiring yourself? I would love to keep this headunit with the cd changer. Thanks!
