The Sony CD player is only 1 disc, the older stereo was six disk though which is where the confusion will have come from.

Still, I'm fairly sure the sony unit is 1 disc unit only, but don't know about the focus one?! If there's a "load" button, you have to press this to add more discs.

when you say everywhere, where does it say this?!? As far as I am aware the sony model is only a single disc unit, but can play mp3 cds.

The graphics for all the discs will be there as it's a common display for both models.

The unit fitted to the 08 STs is a single CD with MP3 compatability.

Ford have never changed the specs to show that they have deleted the 6CD changer in favour of the Sony CD, that's where the confusion comes from

yes there is a 6 disc sony player, mine is only one disc and is the gen 2. there is 4 sony players in total, 2 that are genration 1, a 6 disc player and a single player, and 2 that are generation 2, a 6 disc and a single again, if you have the 6 disc it wil have a load button top right of the player, if not i think mine has ast or sumthing in its place, mine still has the lights for 6 discs but is not. generation 2 look better imo, but i was miffed when i found out its not 6 disc as i though with it being sony it would be, but mp3 fits more albums on anyway
