CD question

Post by cfreeze »

I have a 2004 Matrix and have had to replace the cd/radio. I was told not to use burned cd's in the player??? Anyone know why this is? I love my burned cd's. The player wouldn't eject the cd and then it wouldn't play either. So it was replaced under warranty. Any info would be appreciated.

Welcome to Genvibe! I have an '03 Vibe with the factory 6-disc changer, and I've had no problems with any 'burned' CD's I've recorded on my computer CD-RW drive. In fact, I've only played one or two 'commercially recorded' CD's.I've also intentionally avoided applying labels to the ones for in-car listening, figuring that the heat of summer might cause them to come loose inside the unit.

My 2003 Vibe Base Auto 2-tone Salsa "SalsaWagon" was built in May 2002. I acquired it in Feb 2004/Traded it in on a 2016 Honda HR-V in Feb 2018.

You can absolutely play burned CDs, but avoid using adhesive labels, they seem to have a tendency to peel inside the radio.
YES!I still visit GenVibe periodically. I have not forgotten about my "original" family over here!
