I was visiting my in-laws last weekend and my father-in-law was having the same problem with is 2000 323i. I first removed the unit and plugged it into my X5 to make sure that the problem was with the CD changer, and not a problem with wiring, etc. It produced the same error. Before declaring the CD changer dead, I went to Best Buy and purchased a Maxell CD laser cleaning kit. The kit includes a cd that has small brushes to clean the laser, as well as several audio tracks that test the system. It worked like a charm and his CD changer is back in his car, functioning properly. You might give it a try before doing anything more expensive.
