Lexus ES 2013+ :: CD / DVD Player - Skipping / Popping And Crackling At End Of Discs
Nov 16, 2015
So just recently (few days back) I was playing a DVD Disc, home-burned, with just audio on it. It has about 33 tracks of music on it. I noticed that towards the end of the disc (track 27), it started skipping, having crackling and popping sounds, and eventually just stopped playing and the timer went blank on the screen.
I took it out, the disc looked perfect (I had just burned it). I cleaned the disk anyway, put it back in, and it played fine. The next day, I noticed the same problem with the same disc. I removed the disc, cleaned it, and this time it did not solve the problem.
This morning, I tried a different disc (16 tracks), and the same problem happened after playing track 16 for a few seconds. Crackling/popping, skipping, and then playback stopped. This was also a home-burned DVD disc. No errors are displayed on the screen.
I have noticed no issues towards the beginning of any discs. I have not tried my store-bought DVDs after noticing this issue, but will try those today to see if they have the same problem. If those discs also have the same issue, is it likely an issue related to the laser?
I've got about 21k miles on the car. I have a 2013 ES 350 with the Mark Levinson system.

My ML player all of a sudden won't play or eject any of the discs that are in it. I was watching a DVD waiting for my wife and it must have had a scratch on it because the picture got stuck. I ended up turning it off to listen to the radio. The next day when trying to play a CD all I get is a light grinding/churning noise like the mechanism is stuck or something.

My 2008 Sienna DVD player suddenly won't play discs because it doesn't seem to be spinning the disc. Inserting and ejecting the disc goes normally but the nothing happens when the disc is inserted.

while loading discs the CD player stopped accepting them. it started blinking "Call Sirius". i'm pretty sure the car doesn't have sirius radio and not sure why that'd affect the CD player even if it did. now it blinks "press eject" and is no longer flashing the sirius message. when i press eject it turns off and the radio plays. i tried taking out the fuse and putting it back it but that didn't affect it at all.

This just started happening two weeks ago but it occurred 4 times already. When i first turn the car on sometimes the back speakers pop/crackle loudly and one time it occurred that the radio was not operational for about five minutes after the loud popping occurred. I have a full platinum lexus coverage on the vehicle but the issue is the dealership cannot replicate the problem with the car. On most of the post ive seen that the issue is most likely the amp. I was wondering if there is a way to replicate the issue at hand or am i going to have to records this and show it to the dealer.

The CD player (6 disk changer) in my 2006 Honda Accord will not play disks above freezing temperatures. (To clarify, it is the model without the GPS.) I say temperatures because the playable cut-off usually fluctuates between 30 and 36 degrees F. Below that temperature, the disk plays fine.
Above that temperature, I will be lucky to get 15 seconds of play before the disk begins to skip and eventually error out. Additionally, the disk will skip and error after the cabin warms up. Over the last 9 or so months, this has been consistent behavior.
I first noticed this last summer in very hot weather when a disk began to skip. Since then, there is only one disk that plays reliably in any weather.

I have an 03 F-150 XLT with the 6 disc changer, and I can't get the dang thing to eject. It plays most of the cds fine (sometimes it won't play a certain couple of the six that are in the changer, and reads "CD ERROR" after trying to play the disc for a moment) but it refuses to eject any of the discs. It pushes them out just a little bit and then errors. I've attempted to pull the disc out once its pushed itself out a little, but it won't release them.
I then have to mess with it for several minutes to get it to retake the disc and quit pushing it out again, and then a few more to quit erroring when I change it to disc. I've tried to disconnect the battery (I read in a forum that that sometimes works) but to no avail. I know its a frequent issue with these. I figure I can pull the stereo out and take it apart to get the discs, but how can I fix the issue for good?

I have an aftermarket single disk Cd player in my 2000 ranger. lately going over the smallest bump in the road causes the disk to skip. I can go over big bumps, train tracks etc... with no effects on the disk. Is it possible that the laser that reads the disk can be loose? Is it possible to tighten it? It doesn't affect the radio operation.

I just painted my caliper and now I hear some popping sound when I brake or when I completely stopped. if I bring it to the dealer will they denied the warranty because I painted the caliper?

My wife has a 2013 GS350.....when she backs out of the driveway, turning at a slight angle...there is a loud pop that sounds like it is coming from the rear. The noise does not repeat during normal driving or going over bumps...just when backing out at an angle to the left. Dealer could not repeat the noise. Almost sounds like the strut brace/bar is loose or something along those lines.

Ever since installing my Joe Z axle back exhaust.I get a popping sound when coming to a stop, especially if decelerating harder. I know this type of thing happens to bikes when you don't get them tuned after but I haven't read anything about Tuning the Lex. Is this normal? Are other guys with the aftermarket exhaust and intake having this same sound at times?

Ok had my driver side front cv axle replaced. But not when only backing up and turning I hear and feel a popping sound. Happens when I turn left or right while backing out of garage or parking spot.

I bought a 2015 ES350 in August and have a couple of weird noises.
First is what sounds like either door rubber seal on body rubber seal or window on rubber seal noise over certain types of bumps. Is this common? I can live with this until I bring it in for its first service, but it might be a simple fix I can do.
The second is more of a concern. When I'm moving slowly over an angled surface like a driveway that might cause some "twist" of the car, there can be a loud pop sound. Since it does not happen very often, it is very difficult to locate, and I'm sure its one of those things the dealer service department will never hear. When it happened over the weekend, it almost sounded like it was coming from the roof. This morning, it sounded like it might have come from the rear driver side door, but it is hard to tell.

Our new gs will randomly turn the audio off, and start ejecting all the discs. I'm not sure what's up with that, I tried searching but I didn't find anything. Also the previous owner must have gone through a crappy auto car wash because the fin has two "bites" into it like got hung up on something..on two different occasions possibly. I'm assuming that's the radio antenna and that's why the stations don't come in as clear as they should. Anyways I doubt that has the radio turning the audio off and ejecting discs but figured I would throw that out there.

Just bought a new 2013 Elantra Limited. Love the car but........ very frustrated with the back suspension skipping around. Time to time my dad has to use the car but he is getting scared because the back skips around to much on the hwy ( same here). I know people are replacing the back shocks with the KYB and was wondering if i do change that would i be voiding the warranty the car only has 700 miles
Also one more thing i am getting 21mpg combined i know its still low miles and waiting to get it fully broken in but heard stories that it will not get better. If so whats the best bet to get that issue resolved. Car only has 700 miles ...

My media player has crashed about 5 times, most of the time the scenarios are as follow:
-restarted during music playing through bluetooth
-restarted during navigation + music playing through bluetooth
-restarted during music playing through bluetooth
-restarted during navigation
And today, my media player failed at searching songs from USB drive, couldn't connect to my phone through bluetooth, then restarted after i re-pairing my phone and re-insert usb drive. Everything went normal after restarting.
Other than the media player, couple days ago, I slowly turned my car all the way right, trying to pull my car into my garage at about 3-5 mph with brake applied, i hear this loud high pitch noise, went back and forth couple times with the same motion, sound still appeared..

I finally bought our first Lexus - a slightly used 2007 RX350 (early VIN - manufactured in Feb. 2006). We are hearing some faint crackling/rattling noises from our instrument panel/steering column after applying the brakes with the car idling at a complete stop. It will crackle and rattle for about 15 seconds and then disappear until I apply the brakes again.
We had a 2008 RX350 loaner the other day and I didn't hear this noise.

I bought a gs 350 AWD about 3 weeks ago and I love it. But one thing I have been noticing is often but not every time from 0-20. I feel vibrations and almost like a skipping/jumping of the tires/car, its very soft. Is this normal?. I still have a dealer warranty of 30 days left. But its kind of far so I wanted to see what it was before I drove 2 hours to have them check it out. what this could be?

With the new car, only on audio Bluetooth streaming of my downloaded tunes, I'm experiencing a momentary "skip" of sound (less than a second but still annoying) occurring 0-2 times per song. My phone is a 9 mos. old Samsung Note 4.
I guess I can live with it, and suspect it's more the phone than the car to blame. But, if it's the car audio, especially with ML system, I would have expected better.

I am able to reproduce an error on my 2005's audio system. What "Error 4" means? I have to actually turn off the car to reset the CD player.
Here's how I reproduce it:
Background:It's a non-ML system
6-CD changer, cassette, AM/FM
I have six CD's loaded into the system
Steps:When listening to FM radio, push the CD button
Press the "Disk" up-arrow button rapidly (it is the radio station preset #4 button) to change disks. I usually cycle through five or six rapid disk changes, normally going from Disk 1 to Disk 6, in a fast manner.
Sure enough, after the fourth or fifth (maybe sixth) button press, "Error 4" flashes on the display. At this point, I can't do anything with the CD player. I can, however, switch to radio and listen as usual.
To reset the error message and to begin using the CD player again, I have to turn off the ignition. Turning off just the audio system doesn't reset the error.
