CDs skip on 99 Silverado


Recommended Posts

Posted

Is there anything I can do about CDs skipping over bumps, even small ones? I know they have the anti-skip in newer cars, but did that come in the 99 Silverado? What years did they start putting in the anti-skip technology and can I replace my system with that technology?

I had a '99 Jimmy and never had a problem with the CDs skipping unless I REALLY hit a good bump...Same with my '98 Grand Prix. Heck even my old '96 Jimmy wouldn't skip unless I hit a pretty good bump...But here's a few questions:

 

How old are your CDs? Old CDs can wear out and start skipping.

Do you keep your CDs in a CD book with plastic sleeves? You could have gotten dirt in the sleeves and it's caused scratches on your CDs.

Are they burnt CDs or store-bought ones? Not all burnt CDs are created equal, different combinations of CD-Rs and CD burners yield different results as to how easily a CD will skip.

These CDs are all brand new that I've tried.

They are kept in their CD jewel cases.

And these that I have tried are all brand new, store-bought CDs.

 

I want a new stereo (Looking at Alpine) but I can't afford it right now and I am torn about aftermarket...I just don't want my truck to become a target for thieves and gangsters looking for a new system.
