Post navigation problem, S500

I have a 2000 S500, and a few months ago, the navigation stopped working. I bought the car about a year ago and it (navigation system) was working fine until earlier this year. Whenever i push the NAV button, the screen either reads "No Navigation CD, Please insert Navigation Cd" or "CD Reading Error, Please change CD"--the navigation cd is in the system while it displays these messages. I have also used another navigation cd and the same messages appear. Any suggestion as to what i can do to fix this problem? Thanks.

Since you already have posted this before, have you tried cleaning the drive?

Worst thing can be that CD drive needs to be replaced. It's inexpensive, but requires unit disassembling

Not quite true...the older comand 2.5s use a different CD drive as the newer comand 2.5s and the comand 2.0s do...these older comand 2.5 CD drives are quite troublesome and hard to repair...
