hi sycamore1

i will be picking up my first XK8 some time this week.( after MOT is done) a dream come true.(what's next on the list).

as for your CD problem, it sounds like there is no connection from the changer to the front unit. this may be due to lack of power to the changer. or just a dodgy connection. if the casset will not eject, the problem looks like it at the changer end.

i had a similar problem with my X-type CD changer. I checked all the connections unplugged and replugged then it work fine, it been fine there after.
