i have posted on this forum a month ago, regarding the dvd-rom. it would _not_ read both legit audio and legit nav disks. FM, XM, AM and MP3 are fine, just would not play anything from the dvd-rom. it would say "improperly inserted" whenever a disc is inserted. brought it to dealership and they said they do not do repair, so i will need to order a new unit.

now, i really do not want to spend that kind of money if there are alternatives. it is possible to swap in a good rom and have this problem to go away? can i turn the unit in to a electronic shop and have them check to see if the lens is out of sync? what should i do?

Several postings suggest that the DVD drive is made by Alpine and also used in some of the Alpine navigation units. An Alpine repair shop where the guys know what they are doing might be able to help you.
