Skipping problems on the stock sound?
#1
Hi everyone,
I'm driving a '98 GLE. Does / did anyone using the stock head unit have skipping problems with the CD player? Is this unusual?
And... is there a head unit (or a changer) that's very skip resistant? I don't care too much about cassette, I don't even own any cassettes.
My Dad complained of the skipping the week he bought the car. I've been the proud owner of the car for about a year now and I've seen the skipping problem get far more serious, and over lesser bumps.
Naturally, the Eibach springs I put in recently aggravate the problem, but it was a serious problem before that, and it's even a problem when I'm parked!
And in the fall when I go back to Bennington (Vermont, some of the roads are flat out unpaved) I suspect I will be totally out of luck.
Looking for some advice here.
Thanks,
Shayyadin

Your stock unit should not skip unless going over an extremely harsh bump. Most aftermarket units are fairly good about not skipping, so I would pick the one that you like as they are all respectable in that regard.
