Stereo Issues
 

Hi everyone i was just looking around for some info on a turbo for my 3 and came across this forum have done some reading on here and it was def helpful. just wanted to say hi before i got into my question.

I have a 06 3 and i love it this is only the second car i have owned that i loved to drive (first was a 77 grand prix) anyway the only thing i have had problems with is my stereo I had to replace my stereo back in i think it was jan. or feb. because it would not read disc's and i could not get the ones that were in out. I started out doing this just once in a while and i took it in and of course it worked fine then so they said bring it back when it is having a problem. So a week goes by and its dead radio works fine but CD does not work at all. So i take it in the replace the unit. now 5 or 6 months later it happens again this time just straight up and dies fortunatly i was able to get the CDs out this time so i dont have to wait for them to send them back.
sorry that was so long but my real question is.

Is this a known issue that has been happening? or am i just REALLY unlucky.

As a second part to my question.

Is there a good installation kit for an after market stereo just to resolve the issue or am i going to encounter problems since it is hooked in with everything else. Thanks for your time guys

yes the dash kit for an aftermarket player is like 20-30 bucks and does not look horrable i had to let mine grow on me but now i love it here is a pic of what it looks like...btw the cd player is for sale in this pic i can sell them both to you if you want ;)Attachment 10230
