i-drive problem

[dexxy]

hello- new to this forum,so be gentle. i have a 530/d m sport which has been and still is superb. i have 2 questions.1) i am being told on the i-drive screen to load the nav.disc when it is loaded.this has corrected itself a couple of times,but on restarting the engine the following day it is back to the same fault and i am unable to use the nav.part of the i-drive.everything else is ok. 2)is it possible to replace the passenger side occupancy detector on the f/nearside seat? the restraint warning lights up often,and it appears that is the fault here. hope to hear from you lads.

sounds to me like its having trouble reading the DVD, is the nav disk scratched? have you tried a cd lens cleaner? might be first point of call,

is the disk a few years out of date and needs a new one? Dont some of the 5's have auto traffic updates? if this is the case and you have an out dated disk you would get an error

as per the passenger sensor i have no idea sorry fella

yes ,thanks greeney -- the car is less than 4 years old and as far as i know the disc is the same age. i'll try a cleaner on it,failing that i'll try a different disc -to see if it makes any difference. if it then works it looks like a new one,.. cheers mate.
