Would like to put the original CD changer/player

I have a 1997 BMW 528i. The original radio is replaced, but I would like to put the original radio back in. I don't have a CD changer as my dealer told me that there is no CD changer for the 1997 models.Is this true and where can I find a original CD changer

To put the original back in just hope the harness behind the radio wasant cut into. If its not it should just plug right in and mount back up in the stock location.

as far as the cd changer. if you would want to add one. you would need to find the changer, harness and headunit from a model with one.

Can 2008 BMW 528i ignition coils be used for 2003 BMW 525i

According to my cross reference,the coil for 2008 528i is the same as 2003 525i.

You should use the same brand of coil so the internal resistance is the same.

CD Changer not reading CDs

2000 bmw 528i,my cd changer also reads no cds,this seem to be a common problem with all bmw cd changer.Anyway i removed the cd changer from my car,took the outside black cover apart only to see that a white big wheel came of its place,(its the wheel that holds the cd in place from the top (bottom wheel is black attached directly to the motor,as the cd is sandwitched between the black,and white wheels) .if that wheel is out of place the cd will not turn inside the changer for the eye to read it,so your radio screen will read NO CD OR NO DISC.Very easy fix,just place the wheel in its place,and everything worked fine,it took me 20 minutes to fix.
p.s :
1- you do need to make sure you have an original cd in for testing it.
2- you do not need to recode your cd changer at the dealer if you have an old bmw,dealer will need to recode cd changers for 2006 and up.
Good luck.

Cd changer

Look in the back where the cd changer used to be if there are any loose wires make sure that they are not touching, If there arent any wires touching, Check the fuse box and see if the radio fuse has blown.
