Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • CD Error. Check Disc

    Hello,

    Hope you can help with suggestions. I don't use the CD player very often, but it has just stopped working - won't play music, won't eject discs. It takes a while when I press any buttons and eventually comes up with "CD Error. Check Disc.:

    Can't check any of the Discs as they won't eject!

    MDI music won't play for more than a few seconds when I finally get into that option (as it is mostly stuck on thinking/working on the CD player) before it detects a CD player fault and goes into a loop again.

    Anyone know how I can get the CDs (four slots filled) out of the unit and what it might cost to replace/repair?

    Many thanks.

    Sounds like a perfect time for an upgrade to the RCD330+!

    If you’re keen you could remove the unit and take to it with a screw driver to open it up and carefully remove the CD(s) and try it again in the hopes that you notice some dust or something causing the problem. Maybe you end up with a unit without a working CD player, but at least it’s a free repair. Beyond that it’s probably not worth fixing.

    Plenty of cheapies rcd510s floating about, but like I said I’d probably opt for the 330+ if I had to replace it.

    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

      I had a burnt cd in mine - which had a paper label attached. Played it once only then left it in the player.

      When parked in the sun the label melted. Next time I started the car - CD player starts having a sook.

      I disconnected and re-connected the battery a few times - causing the player to reset - which eventually caused the bad disk to be spat out.

      Might be worth a chance?
