I have an 05 c6 with the nav system in it. I have tried a few different cd's in the cd player and it keeps saying "no disc found". Has anyone else had this problem, and what was the fix?

We'll need a little clarification on this one. I trust that these are mp3 cd's? Have you installed (or had installed) the firmware update to allow for mp3 playback? The 2005 navigation unit does not have the ability to play a mp3 cd out of the box and there is a software update that will enable this feature but you or your dealer will need to install it if you haven't had it done.

No, these are just normal cd's. I think it may be broken, but i was making sure before I took it in that i wasn't missing something.

Sounds to me like it's busted. But, just in case, here's the stupid question - you did put the disc in with the label up?

Ok, now that we have that out of the way, you should try a disc cleaner before looking into repair or replacement. I've seen units that get very little use get dirty and stop working. A simple lense cleaning and they are fine again. You can also try blowing some compressed air in the slot to get some of the dust out of it.
