PS3 not reading discs
Discussion
Typical, just as I’m really getting into GT5 my ps3 stops reading discs, anyone had one fixed anywhere they can recommend?
The disc does not even spin when I put it in
I have found these guys - http://www.fixmyconsole.co.uk/ps3.php they seem to be offering to fix it for £69.99?
Thanks in advance

Not used anyone but bought my console as a non runner with that problem, got a blu-ray drive from fleabay and made it fit, no problems since. Drive cost £100 and was different to what mine (early 60gb) had. Did a bit of a hatchet job between the two drives but it's been (touch wood) 100% reliable
£70 does sound cheap though but temptingly cheap not suspiciously cheap if you see what I mean.

It does seem cheap, most other sites want about £90 to do it and the local computer shop near me want £100 £70 does sound cheap though but temptingly cheap not suspiciously cheap if you see what I mean.
New blu-ray drive for £50 from jack of all games, 1/2 hour of work and swap it out yourself. Although be careful not to snap one of the cables inside like someone did on here recently. Mine stopped reading discs a while back and has been fine since replacing the drive.

They seem to do the fix for £69.99 to, rather than rip it apart myself i think i may use them...
