2007 Legacy GT McIntosh CD problems...

[smoothsubie]

Hey all,

Just recently my 07 LGT has been having problems with CDs in the McIntosh head unit. Every time I turn the car back on, I have to load each CD individually, as though it has forgotten there is a CD in there. I have to hit load for it to load the first CD, then repeat this for all 6 cds, rather than it just knowing that there are 6CDs in the system and being able to select whichever one I wanted. This causes problems when any of the CDs are ejected (other than the 6th), because if the 4th CD is ejected i can only load the first 3, and i can't select the 5th or 6th because it doesn't recognise they are there. Because it doesn't think they are there, I can't eject or load them. Does anybody know of this happening or know how to fix it? Its driving me up the wall!!

When i re-read this paragraph it sounds quite confusing but hopefully you know what I mean, please help!

Sorry can't offer a solution but can add that you're not alone. My player has different problems, it loads up fine but then won't eject cleanly. It can take up to 5-6 attempts before it will unload and eject all the disks. At one point I thought the discs might be stuck in there forever. Now I just have 1-2 discs loaded but the go-to option is now the AUX input with iPhone connected. Shame that but I guess given the advancing age and the relative complication of the changer mechanism it was only a matter of time. Also it's skipping which happens even when stationery.
