06 CD changer

My 06 CD changer stuck. I'm looking for another used one. Question is 6 disc CD changer with navigation system and w/o one use the same? and what year will compatible with 06. By the way, I couldn't afford a DB right now. I also want to keep it original because I got NAV and bluetooth. Thanks

Have you tried manually unjamming the discs? Here's my video of how it's done:

And if you need help getting the radio out, I've got that covered too:

To answer the original question - for an 06, so long as you match what kind you had in the car - bose or non-bose, you can use a radio from an 05 coupe or sedan, 06 coupe or sedan or an 07 coupe. There's no change in the radio based on the other components in the car.

Thanks. I haven't have time to remove the CD. I will try it. Did your Cd work again after you removed the jamed disc? Mine seem like motor did't turn, no noise at all.

I did that video after having replaced with an aftermarket radio, so mine were never stuck in the first place, I just disassembled it, shoved discs in, put it back together and then did the video of how to get them out. It worked fine before, and I'm sure it still works.

My bose radio, on the other hand, (which is in a video where I was less careful in the dis-assembly) was having errors reading discs, so it's been a guinea pig for other things and would no longer work, since I bent and broke a few springs along the way (the discs inside were fine, which was the point of the video). It's one of the sacrifices I've made for this forum, and why I don't mind if people want to send me their old radios and/or trim so I can do more videos. So if you do end up replacing yours and want to let me try and find a simple solution for what you've got, I'll give it a go once I'm back in the states (about a month now).

Anyway, back to the problem - You'll have to get the factory radio out, regardless, so you might as well do a radio removal and check it for something jammed in there, or if something just isn't sliding smoothly inside that's obvious. There are some radio repair specialists that can probably take care of the problem as well, I think they run about $150, but I'd rather put that towards an aftermarket radio.
