I have a MK3 BMW Sat Nav Unit (made by VDO) and it has stopped reading the navigation map discs.
The one that came with the car was burned on a Verbatim CD-R and it worked fine.

I have since upgraded the firmware to the latest version and I have burned a new 2010 map disc. The unit will not read the disc and just ejects it. It did read it once so I thought everything was fine but the next day when I started the car the screen said no disc was inserted. So I looked in the boot at the unit and it had ejected it.

It also will not read the original Verbatim CD-R that used to work.

Has the unit screwed up or does anyone know of a technique to make it work/reset the machine?
