Question CD Changer Cover Stuck - 2000 Vanden Plas

Hi All,

I'm in California with a 2000 Vanden Plas, but I'm posting in the General section since I figured the same Jaguar CD Changer is likely in multiple models. I recently got this car and the CD changer technically functions fine. It plays CDs, I switch between CDs, and they sound fine, but I can't fully slide open the CD Changer cover to eject the magazine.

I can move the first slider, but the second slider with the Jaguar logo is stuck, it won't move in either direction. Anyone experienced this issue before?

Welcome to the forum howens,

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X308 forum. Members here with the same model will advise.

Removing the surrounding carpet trim will probably reveal what is causing the slider to stick.

When you get a minute, please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some info about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see.

In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.

Graham

It looks like someone has forced it open (Probably off) previously. Mine slides very smoothly. I would think a replacement from an auction site shouldn't be too expensive.
