CD-R woes V70-XC70 1998

This same subject has come up on numerous boards / forums, from Audi to Volvo. It is not unique to your player.

Here are a fews tips from others:
() Use an old 2X or 4X burner, not the latest 12X - 20X technology.
() Don't use 80 minute blanks, find some of the old 74 minute, 650Mb ones.
() Select "disk at once" record mode, and copy to the hard drive first during recording. Don't enable "CD-Text".
() Clean the original with Windex (or even dish detergent and water) first. Don't wipe in a circular motion, but across the disk surface.
() Record at 2X speed.
() Most report better results with blanks whose recording surface is blue rather than green.
() Don't use the your computer for anything else during the record process; close all other programs first.
