Brother in law has a 1999 w/stock CD player.  Has recently started getting ERR messages on standard store bought CD's.  Any hints or is this simple...its new CD player time????  Is the CD player in this GM model/year prone to this?

Weird...I was getting that Err message on the 97 and it would kick the CD back out.  Had the dealership replace the CD/Tape player from a 99 Silverado and haven't had any problems since.

 

They didn't tell me what the problem was so I can't really help ya :D

WOAH!!! Slow down!  All this technical info has me spinning..... I told him I didnt think there was much you could do with a cd player out of warrantee.  Probably not worth the hassle of pulling and seeing if it could be fixed.  Just replace.  Anyone disagree?

Okay    Newbie   I'll    go    slower.    just    get     some    compressed   air   and   spray    it    out,   also   use   a   cd   lens   cleaner.    if   that   doesn't    work,   contact   ACDelco   and   if    they    can't    do    anything    look   in   the   for   sale    forum    for    a   stock   cd    player.   they    are    easy    to    remove,   even    I    could   do   it.

This might sound a bit out there but this could explain it. The recording industry has started implimenting a copy protection method that keeps cds from being "ripped" into MP3s. This copy protection isnt compatible with all cd players and will cause some players to not read the cd and in your case spit it back out. This might be the problem!

Back this summer I got that trouble with the CD player in our truck, it spit the CD out and it was covered with water!  It was a really humid hot day, so I'm thinking with as many times as I opened and shut the door getting in and out with the AC on full blast it finally ended up condensing in the player.  I wiped off the CD, but it in, and it worked.  I'm with the other guys, try a cleaning.

LOL

 

 

anyways, I think it's just a defective CD Player...seems like we've all had some kind of problems with them at one time or another.  If it's still under warranty why not take it back and have them replace it?  If not, then this is a good reason to go out and get an aftermarket one :D

      Mixed info from dealer and manual RE: 10 Speed 45K service

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      I'm the original poster of this thread; I'm 85,000 miles now with no transmission issues after they did the fluid change without filter at 45,000.  I plan on a fluid change AND filter in another 5,000 miles and agree with you on staying to witness what happens if possible.  Ideally I would have done the filter at 45,000 too, but my original dealer was incompetent.  I've since moved on and get service done by another more reputable dealer, so I'm hopeful they follow the correct procedure at 90,000.

      Sure, but they do have some affordable options like the Trax, Trailblazer, Envista, and Encore. Some of these have a cheaper base price than the Civic, though the fuel economy isn’t as high. The main problem is that people WANT the highest trim with all the goodies and finance for like 7 years. That’s how ppl “afford” the more expensive vehicles.

      Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.

      LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL

      OBD not ready?

      By davester · Posted

      Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
