Randomly the Album Artwork has stopped showing on my idrive screen

The only thing I can think is that somehow playing a CD has confused it because previously hooking my phone up through usb in the armrest & playing Amazon Music showed the artwork


Any ideas guys

Most of these systems ‘glitch’ depending on how long they are used for / switched without a full re-boot.

If I stop n start the car several times in short succession the iPhone / USB connection hangs with no sound , sometimes pop it out of the iPhone holder works sometimes I need to pop it out, re-boot the phone and then all is well.

45+ years in IT taught me that if in doubt re-boot before trying anything else :thumbsup:

As B21 states, full reboot... press and hold the volume button until the headunit reboots itself.

No guarantee, but always worth a shot :thumbsup:
