Default 08 SG Harmon Kardon CD Issues

Folks,
&nbsp\\;
My Harmon Kardon radio/CD unit in the new SG is playing up. It seems to hang up around track 9/10 on just about every CD I play. Everything else works - any clues before I toss it back to the dealer?
&nbsp\\;
Thanks

Are these CDs you've burned yourself, or are they commercially produced CDs? Could be the quality of CD if you're burning your own. I've had some issues of the HK not reading some of the CDs I've burned. I tried a different brand of CDRs, and that seemed to fix the problem.

Or...

Get an MP3 player :-)

Nobody here can do anything for you. Take it back to the dealer it's under warranty.

Mine was a piece of crap the day I got her home an tried to play a CD, it lost its mind, the same track would be playing but the track number would jump up to a crazy 3 digit number and then it would skip like crazy even on the jiffy stand with the bike off after 30 seconds of playing. When I brought it in for my 1K service they had to put a new radio in. Works beautifully now.
