S40 CD player skips frequently S40-V40 2001

I posted this a while back.
No response....maybe nobody has had this problem.
But...my dealer has now put in THREE new radio/cd units into my '01 S40.
The CD player continues to frequently skip.
So, that makes 4 (including the original) that have been in
the car....and ALL do exactly the same.
Obviously, it's not the unit but something beyond that....
something that seems to be peculiar to my car since neither the
dealer nor Volvo seems to have any idea how to fix the problem.
After the third new radio install failed to fix the problem, Volvo
instructed the dealer to put a cradle of insulation around the unit....
ya know, to buffer/shock absorb it a little.
Still skips.
Seems to me it must be a connector on the car end of things....
rather than the radio/cd unit end...since several new units have
NOT fixed the problem.
It MUST be something with the car....NOT the radio/CD unit.
Yes?
No?
Anybody have ANY ideas at all?
