Hi all,

I have a 2003 Diesel 110, great car and love the mpg!!

Had the car about 2 months now, and have started to have problems with the
dash mounted (factory fitted) CD changer.

Basically, at total random times the CD changer just stops to function. You
can't play, or eject any disks, and although you can select CD as the
source, it does not do anything. This is getting really annoying, and seems
to happen more often when changing from 1 disk to another. It also does not
seem to make any difference if its retail original CD's or compilations I've
made on the computer.

The only "fault" indication that I can see is that the buttons on the right,
numbered 1-5 all flash in unison with each other. The fault does not clear
if you switch off then on the radio/ignition, unless its switched off for a
couple of hours/overnight.

Anyone else have similar problems?

Post replies to the NG please as the email address does not function.
Thanks,
John.

It could be better.

Funny you should say that. A similar thing happened to mine last
night, although I didn't notice if the lights were flashing. It's 13
months old and this is the first time it's happened.

Yes, exactly those symptoms here too (blaupunkt unit), very random, the
only fix seems to be leave it overnight (to cool off?)
(307sw, 90,15 months old)
Dealer supposed to be getting a swap out unit, that reminds me to to give
'em a ring to see where thats got to

Yep,

Common failure on this unit, my SW (53reg) is on it's third!

Eventually all discs will get stuck in it, and the disco lighting will be
contiuous.....only repair is to swap out the whole unit AFAIK.

Same problem here with a June 02 reg. Only started happening recently and
damn frustrating. Skips tracks and then won't load CD's and packs up
completely. As other posts it seems to fix itself after leaving off
overnight but quickly re-occurs again.

Will I still be covered under Puegeot guarantee on this or not? Anyone know?
