Angry CD Stuck in '02 COMAND

Uggh, I have a crappy CD of the g/f's stuck in the nav disc slot in my COMAND. Any idea on how to get this thing out? Uggh... I'd rather not make a dealer visit, this thing is Steve installed. Thanks in advance

I would recommend using some of that Compressed-Air-in-a-Can stuff,
to see if anything is not allowing the CD to eject when you push the button.

There have been posts about excessive dust and debris build-up inside COMAND units,
affecting CD ejection and play.

Keep pushing the button, and if the CD is not worth anything, then try prying it out gently with some very thin thin pliers or tweezers. Be careful not to stick it in too far
or push the CD into the unit.

good luck.... let us know if anything worked for you.

When the CD is trying to get out (and goes back in) you can momentarily press on the top of the CD very lightly with a wooden probe and the roller underneath the CD will grip really well and hopefull eject the CD.

In the mouth of the cd slot is a roller that goes all the way across and sits under the CD.

Try not to use anything sharp or metallic.
Usually the roller is just dirty.

greetingz,
Oils from the fingers spreads quickly ... all you have to do is hold a CD and that is enough to leave a film of oil.
