How to get CD out of Mk7 stereo

Postby rmattila » Tue Nov 14, 2017 12:18 pm

The question is on the subject line. Is there some mechanical force eject button somewhere?

Not that I know of without removing stereo from dash (can come out using 4 cable ties if you don't have the correct tools )
Then take off cassing to get to mechanism.

Is it one of your favourites you want to keep
or a Celine Dion you don't want in !

My wife first pressed power and eject simultaneously for ten seconds, then wiggled a credit card in the slot and the machine popped the disk out.

See, if you want a technical job done, ask a non-technical person, and they'll get it done without overthinking it, like a technician does :!: :P :mrgreen: :lol:


Kudos to your wife :D 8)

Not only has she kept me from suffocating for years, she also maintains the house and machinery. And raises the kid. Plus works.
