Question about cd player
I have a 2011 gs vert 4 lt package Bose system with navigation single cd.It seems like the cd has to be almost free of scratches to play other wise it skips. Also on accation I get disk error or no cd when there is really one in the changer. Are these that sensitve or have I got a problem .Heavily scratched cd;s wont even play. All imput greatly appreciated.Bob.

A Vert is a fairly dusty environment for a CD player. Mine got to where it would skip often and actually end some songs early and move on to the next one. It is likely dust on the laser lens.

It's the CD player. I had an 07 and now a 12 GS and they both have the nav system and both of the CD players would skip on CDs that were in great shape with no problem playing on other CD players. I had 2 brand new discs skip the first time out so it will be getting replaced in the future.

Dirty lens. Just using it every time I drive keeps mine pretty clean but a shot of air occasionally never hurts. My experience is the nav head unit in this car is as good at reading CDs as any other car I've driven.
