Anyone else out there had problems with their Audio10 CD? I often get a "CD Error" message and it takes an age to start up a CD or skip tracks.

Also, the RDS seems a little eager! When trying to listen to Xfm, for instance, the radio will decide I want to listen to Absolute! This is a little annoying.
 
Best thing to do with the Audio10 is to bin it. They are a fairly useless unit with poor sound quality.
 
Hi,
Does the CD error appear on all types of disc? as mine would play proper discs ok but if you used a home burned disc it was very tempermental, sometimes playing but most times not.
With your RDS it sounds like you have your Traffic Info turned on, as that is the only way the unit can change station automatically.
To be honest these units as vijilants says are fairly useless, and you can upgrade to a far better sounding and more versatile unit quite cheaply.
 
Thanks. I guessed that might be the answer! Just got to get it through the financial controller...
