[A4] CD Changer problem - 1998 A4/2.8 Quattro

[Richard Hurt]

Venkat,

I had this (or something similar to it) happen on my 98.  I tried following
the directions here (http://www.audiworld.com/tech/elec4.shtml) but in the
end just removed the changer from the car and disassembled it.  It's not too
hard actually and I was able to remove the stuck disk and get it all working
again.  In fact it worked for about 2 years before it started throwing
errors again, however by that time I had purchased and iPod and was beyond
the CD changer stage in my life.  :)

Later...
  Richard

P.S. Now that I think about it, I think there might be several CDs stuck in
the magazine.  Hmmm...I'll have to get those out someday.
