audi concert, cd function
 

Has anybody had any difficulty playing cds using the concert radio?
Occasionally, when a cd is inserted, the disc spins up and the display
automatically goes into cd mode. Nothing unusual there, except no sound
comes through. Volume is turned up, the display behaves completely normal.
After a series of ejecting the cd and reinserting it will decide to let me
hear the audio. The radio plays properly during this whole rigmarole!

I had this issue when the car was 6 months old. That was about 6 months ago
now...is this a common fault?

Regards,

Weird, I've had exactly this problem in mine also! All appears normal
but no sound. Even an original CD won't play.

A few switch off/on cycles does tend to cure it, but most of the time
the problem appears when the engine is not running, although I don't
know if it's related.

My car was about a year old when it started exhibiting this problem, but
in the last 8 months or so, it hasn't happened again, so I put it down
to a badly mastered CD.
