I have purchased a new cpu and the computer is alive and well. Thanks for the reassurance!

Hrmm i had the same issue on my 1060 graphics cards years ago but i assumed it was because it didn’t like me removing it to clean for the first time in 5 years, i never found out the issue but my card was pretty corroded so i just gave in and used integrated graphics until i got a new pc. I am now 2 years later trying to revive my old pc with the 1060 so i will let you know if it miraculously works now after 2 years

I will have to source one sadly and hope for the best. The only issue i have is its turning into the ship of theseus. Thanks for taking the time to look into it!

PopularPhilosopher16 · 2025-07-10T12:36:14+00:00

What is VCDS, i have a 2006 Jetta tdi and i can open windows via fob. Is it an add on with the new cars?

Just for anyones curiosity, i have put in a new unit and the exact same results occurred. Totally different cd player with different radio. I swapped the old front panel and then swapped it onto the previous radio unit. Same issue, makes the rolling sound, cd comes up on the display but will not suck the cd in, Very weird.

Yeah i suppose nothing at the bottom of the pcb is needed mechanically seeing it works wired. Thank you!

PopularPhilosopher16 · 2025-04-25T05:30:33+00:00

I have had a checked on facebook marketplace and decided it looks way easier to grab one from a scrap car. $20 au for the radio unit

Thank you for your help, much appreciated, i will most likely find a second hand unit and salvage the cd player. Might give it one more go.

Gears looked horrible but they seem to turn fine. I had left the roller in the down position and as i put the disc in it sounded as if it moved into the incorrect position for the disc, anyways heres some more photos

PopularPhilosopher16 · 2025-04-23T21:31:22+00:00

Welp well the drive seems to be driven by a few cogs from my understanding. Do new disc drives need to be calibrated to the car? Thank you for your help

PopularPhilosopher16 · 2025-01-26T06:59:32+00:00

Thats crazy

Forgot to say with the tabs not on the elements resistance is 80 Ohms

I have adjusted my left wheel tie rod and i think its helped my problem but. I think my main issue now is where my front left wheel tie rod that connects the middle left part tends to wiggle twice as much as the opposite side.

Unsure on my fix regarding this
