[QUOTE="t2ribena, post: 582068, member: 3847"] the usual culprit is the angle sensor...after a while the optical disc gets clouded on one of its sides that has some kind of coating which is likely due to our climate...I experience this twice on different car and most mechanic recommend replacing it while still under warranty, but I decided to DIY to see if it can be fixed without replacing so I open up and remove this optical disc...I then clean it by rubbing with fingers gently to remove the 'clouding'...after installing it, it works fine and haven't have the issue since...but I decided to replace it at the end of my cars warranty for peace of mind but this thing will happen again... if u are trying to DIY please do it at your own risk...not easy for those not familiar with the removal...TIS would be helpful if you have it...
