Forums Forums Enthusiast Forums A - Z Autowirral car cd player

My cd player in the car has started jumping and skipping tracks, especially more when travelling to work on the motorway
its driving me mad! the radio is working fine, just wondered if anyone knows if its a costly repair or would it be cheaper to buy a new one and pay to have it fitted?

It seems worse when I play my homemade discs as opposed to pre-recorded discs.......

re-burn your home made disks they are probably scratched or just passed it!
Mine does this quite often with home made ones
your player is probably ok

Steve

will try that and let you know the outcome, thanks for your advise steve.

also, burn your cds a slower than usual

i always find that a disc that has been burnt at max speed will have problems playing, lower the speed and it will play fine

ok thanks will have a go! fingers crossed it is just the discs, thanks for your info guys....much appreciated.

Get a can of compressed air and give the CD slot a quick blast.

Thanks for your help guys! it was the discs, burnt some new ones and working fine yayyyyy!

Your help was much appreciated, also saved me a lot of money

No probs

Glad to be of assistance
