Just wondering wether anyone else has had this fault on their vw single din cd player....

when loading a cd, the display on the headunit above shows chk magazine, and does not start playing the cd.

When the car went in for a service recently, vw said it was a fault ignition switch causing the problem, and that playing copied cds had also caused it :?

It was a fairly hefty price for them to change the switch,for which they could not guarantee would cure the fault :shock:

anyone else had this problem?

Never had that (although I have the gamma Radio/Casette with cd changer) All I do know is that they must be chatting out their ar5e to say copied CD's helped cause the problem.

They shouldn't be any different to norrmal CD's.

So the typical, it's a woman lets shaft her over :roll:

All garages try that, a garage tried that with my mum and dad, then my grandad went in, in a pair of Audi Race overalls. They soon shut up then :lol:

Hope you get it sorted anyway mate, sorry I couldn't be of assistance.
