Try pressing the knob adjacent to the CD player in if you see the mute icon. If that doesn’t work, try using the steering-wheel-mounted volume control.
It’s possible that the volume is just set to zero if you don’t see the mute icon on the iDrive interface. If turning the knob next to the CD player does not increase the volume, keep pressing the button on the steering wheel.
Of course, tune your radio to a station you know works and give it a shot. Relying on a CD to check whether your speakers are operating requires that you have a functioning CD because there is always a potential that it may not be reading properly.

By simultaneously pushing the volume control and both eject buttons, you can reset the radio. It will only restart the radio.
The radio is not reset when you turn off and on your car again; instead, the systems need to go down for roughly 20 minutes. The three button trick will accomplish this immediately.

The profiles, phone integration, etc., all appeared to be working as expected on the system. However, there was no audio, and when the volume rocker (located in the center of the console) was scrolled, it said “no audio source.”
Thought there might be a problem with my profile, but while she was driving, my girlfriend also encountered the same difficulty.
Simply push and hold the media screen’s volume rocker dial in the center console of the BMW ix until it turns black (10 to 30 seconds), and then wait for the system to restart itself, which will take a few minutes.
I apologize if I missed the thread but I haven’t seen this one posted before.
The vehicle will unmute my line while I’m using CarPlay for hands-free calling. The annoying thing would go on mute about every 10 seconds as I was on a conference call while returning from the airport. In order to make sure the silence button was checked, I had to constantly monitor the iDrive display.
Yes, I have the exact same problem. Not quite every 10 seconds, but definitely throughout the entire call. a severe pain in the rear.
I have an iPhone X running 12.2, but my car hasn’t received an update since it was delivered. My software, I believe, is vs..28
Yes. I’ve been having the same problem. While using CarPlay during a conference call, the iPhone keeps de-muting itself, which is really frustrating. If someone has found a solution, kindly share. I appreciate your support.
I apologize in advance if this question has already been addressed; I’m new to the forum.
My vehicle is a BMW 330i 4 door sedan from 2006. The audio system abruptly quit working recently. Radio, CD, Satellite, and Aux still work, and the screen is operational, but no sound is produced. Something seemed to have muffled it. I am unable to locate a mute/unmute button or menu item, though. Any suggestions on how to identify and resolve the problem?
Another somewhat unconnected problem is that the muting occurs immediately following the tire rotation I had at the Costco tire service. Is it conceivable that they accidently severed some wire while rotating the tires?
Try turning the volume knob in, even though it might not be the answer and seem incredibly obvious. this mute/unmutes the sound

When the audio is on, pressing the button will turn it on or off but not mute or unmute it. Other suggestions?

Inspecting the amp, I The amp is extremely silent when the radio is on, and it doesn’t appear that any fans are running. I’m not sure if the dim yellow light on the side that points toward the rear bumper is coming from the amp or from another source of lighting.
How can I quiet the radio on my BMW x5?
Yes! The master radio button, which occasionally doubles as the volume control knob, can be used to switch off the radio in your BMW 5 Series. This won’t completely turn off your radio; it will merely mute it. Although the station is still visible, no sound will be heard.
Choose another audio source, such as a CD or your phone, if you’d prefer to totally switch off your radio. This won’t disable your audio system, but it will disable the radio so you can connect to an other sound source.

How can I de-mute?
Look at the phone’s screen by removing it from your line of sight. The word “Mute” should be visible in one of the bottom corners of the screen, either on the right or left. Regardless of what the key’s actual designation is, press the key right beneath “Mute.” “Unmute” will replace the word “Mute.”
On a BMW, how do you reset the sound?
To manually reset, hold down the power button for around 20 seconds. My 1 series would occasionally do that. Until the seatbelt alert lit up, I would let my seatbelt hang loose. After that, I could hear.
How can I turn off the volume?
Open Volume Mixer is the option that appears when you right-click the volume icon in the taskbar notification area. Toggling mute or unmute according to need can be done by clicking the volume icon of devices and apps.
On a BMW, where is the mute button?
I was thinking, “Wait, where is Mute!” the other day as I drew up to the Pollo Tropical drive-through with my music blazing. I had to manually lower the volume as a result. I looked through the handbook, but all I could find on mute was the microphone. I know the 335 has a mute somewhere because my Gti had one on the steering. So who is aware of the location of the mute button?
LoL…
I didn’t know why it wasn’t in the handbook, but I figured it had to be something straightforward; it’s probably too trivial to waste time on. The gti operates in the same manner; there is no mute button, just a strange star button on the wheel.
Can you press in the volume “roller” switch on the steering wheel to get the same results as pushing in the main volume knob?
It’s almost certainly in the manual’s section on stereo operation. It doesn’t strictly mention “mute” under the headline, but it does state that pressing the button will silence the system.
I searched for “microphone mute” using the ctrl+F keyboard shortcut while using the pdf instructions. I neglected to read the paper or the iDrive manual.
I’m keeping track of this post because I want to be able to mute from the steering wheel, which you don’t seem to be able to do on the F30. It was a feature on my prior E87, so it appears that BMW decided users no longer desired it.

How can I re-set the sound in my car?
A few months back, I purchased a used car, and it has been functioning flawlessly. The radio has been acting strangely lately, and when I switch it on, CODE is now shown. How can I turn the car radio back on?
In less than two minutes, find out if your auto insurance is being overcharged.
Your radio is locked if the CODE display is shown. If the car has just undergone maintenance, had other settings restored, or had the battery replaced, this is a typical occurrence.
You will need to enter a code to go beyond the car’s security system in order to open the radio. This code can be found in several places, most notably:
- in the owner’s guide. In the owner’s manual, look in the radio/stereo or security sections to find the code quickly.
- See whether the manufacturer has a database of stereo security codes by visiting their website.
- Find out whether your nearby dealership can give you the code or unlock it for you by going there.
The following measures should be used if you are unable to locate the code and the dealership or installation facility was unsuccessful in unlocking it:
- Just turn the ignition on, not the engine
- Turn off the radio.
- To reset the radio, press and hold the power button for a few minutes.
If this initially doesn’t work, hold the power and seek buttons down simultaneously or for a longer period of time. Hopefully, one of these techniques will get you jamming out once more right away!
Review your your insurance coverage and download the Jerry app while you wait for a technician to unlock your audio. Jerry is the quickest and best way to locate a car insurance plan that is specially tailored for you.
