1. i recently bought a 2003 g35 sedan from bmw of honolulu, i notice that the cd changer wasnt working. the saleman told me that the person that took the car in said that there are cds jammed in the changer. did anyone have this problem? i dont have warrenty so i dont know if i could cover the repairs, its not a big deal cause i have a ipod with a transmitter. i dont have enough to buy a aftermarket deck to replace the stock deck. so can someone help shoots.

2. i kinda took notice that my fan kinda makes a abnormal noise. like i can hear the fan more then the motor. any suggestion. i guess ill try take it in for service. but doesnt anybody esle have this problem.

lmk shoots.

 

oh yeah. did anyone do a trunk swap yet? i wanna swap my 2003 trunk with a 2004 trunk.....

 

03/04 model head units have issues with CD's. It's possible the original owner screwed it up by using sub-standard CD's, but I think it's probably just a ****ty changer.

I'd call IoH and see if they might be able to help you out with swapping out the head units, if not then you might want to do the double DIN conversion and ditch that piece 'o crap.


........as far as the trunk switch......why? The 03/04 trunks should be the same unless one has a spoiler on it.

 

^+1 on the changer issue, VERY common unfortunately

The fans are pretty loud but they don't kick on too often.

 

is this on the 04 models too??? cuz if so Im taking my cds out now!!! lol

 

I thinik those problems occur more with burnt cd's, but some have been known to happen with regular cd's. I think it cost about 600.00 for a swap with a reman unit at the dealer...

 

the 2003 G's have what i believe are a clutch fan... which means it is connected to the block kinda like the GM V-8's are... when the clucth heats up, the fan comes on!

i believe 2003.5 models were changed to an electric fan mounted on the radiator! that would probably explain the whole fan noise!

 

Mine died with original "record label" CDs in it. No DVD-R, DVD-RW, etc

 

03/04 both had the same issues. Some units had the problem some didn't...........it's purely dis-luck of the draw.
