CD player

[PHOENIX]

Hi everyone, just bought my renault megane and every time I start the car the CD player makes a really annoying sound until for a minute then plays the CD. It makes the same noise if I take out the CD and put another one in! Some times it doesnt even recognise the CD so I have to eject it and put it back in!

Any ideas anyone?

Thought the CD player might need cleaning?

Thanks

Maybe the player doesnt have your taste in music..

Hey maybe your right! ive just started making the same noises, maybe I dont have your taste in jokes....

could try getting a cd head cleaner and giving that a go, is the sound like a clicking? as you sometimes get that on cd players as its trying to focus the beam by bouncing the head up and down.

i had the same problem. i asked Renault about it and they told me "you are using copied CDs and they are very thick" or "poor quality".

if u are using copied CDs, choose the very thin high quality ones!

this advice worked with me...

[PHOENIX]

Yeah it is like a clicking sound!

Thought about using a CD lens cleaner, i'll have to hunt one down and try it out

Ive only had the car just over a week and i've only used geniune CD's, dont know what the previous owner used!

Thanks for you replys

Tried a CD lens cleaner and it worked!

The only problem is when I use copied CD's a few times the problem arises again. Ok if I use geniune CD's. So it looks like you were right elgammal

How do you know that the coppied CD;s are the high quality thin ones?

Does it say on the case when you buy them that they are extra thin? Or is it a case of buying a certain brand like Sony?

Thanks
