Since a couple of days back, the map won't come on when I start the car. After ejecting the DVD and insert it again, the navigation works fine. For some minutes, then it stops reading it.... eject-insert, here we go..... no. eject-insert again.... oh yes, reading reading.... 2 hrs later - stops again.
Next day? Works fine the whole day.![Bashwall](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/bashwall.gif)
Apparently the laser having problem reading the disc? Or could there be other reasons for this error?

Do you have an old DVD? I mean like an outdated "old" disk that you could try?

I'm having the same problem, but only when I get into the car after work. I'm putting it down to the heat we've been having the last week. Each time I take the disc out, let it cool by the a/c vents and put it back in, it works fine.
A little relieved to know it's not just me having issues with this. I was beginning to wonder about it for a while...

Thanks for all the advice - it's off to the dealer tomorrow (end of warranty this Saturday
) so I'll keep you posted.
