    I know that there have been similar threads, but none that quite aswer
    my question, sorry!

    I've jsut bought a brand new 307 Sport, with what the manual describes
    as an LD4 head unit with 5 CD changer.

    Most of my music is on MP3 CDs which my previous car stereo played no
    problem. The manual for the LD4 clearly states that it plays MP3 CDs,
    but I simply cannot get it to work. It just spits the CDs out after a
    short time. In the Changer display, it describes them as
    "Unplayable."

    Any advice?

    No idea about LD4 specifics but...
    First check the manual for the format it wants the MP3s in.
    ie. Will it handle folders/nested folders etc?
    (Then make sure you're not test trying an MP3 DVD. I only add this because
    that was my first dumb mistake on my new Pioneer player :)

    That's funny Jim, I did exactly the same thing you did with a new
    Pioneer headunit a while back.
    As for the LD4 unit, I thought is was the Clarion RD4. To my
    knowledge, neither the Clarion head unit nor the Blaupunkt 5 disc
    stacker (under the Clarion) will play MP3's what so ever. If you look
    through some threads that were posted earlier this week, you'll get
    some better information about exactly the same thing. There's really
    not a great deal you can do.
