Default Stock C5 CD player question

I am no audiophile, but my wife wants the CD player to work reliably. The stock unit (single disc, am/fm/cd) player will sometimes say "error" when trying to play some CD's. Other CD's play fine. Other than replacement does anybody have any ideas as to what is wrong?

Anybody got a good used C5 stock player they want to sell?

Are you trying to play CDRs? If so then do a search on burned discs for the CD player.

No, most of the ones I have problems with are commercially prepared store bought CD's.

That'll happen sometimes if the disk is scratched or dirty. Same disk different results. One time they work other times they don't. Try cleaning the offending disk(s).

Good luck
