[QUOTE="Tekjive, post: 4107562, member: 586747"] Hey all, just got an Alpine 7998, looks new, not 1 scratch. But I noticed slight grinding noise on bottom left side when adjusting angle and bottom right side when head retracts. Almost like it's trying to skip a few gear teeth. The alignment looks good but could it be off? Is that why is skips teeth at different times? Can new grease fix this? Has anyone ever came across this with their 7998? That is really the only problem and I want it the head to eject/retract like glass. Any help would be great. Also it's not slow or anything like motor is dying, fully functional at all angles, cd load/eject, head eject/retract. Just sounds like skipping teeth at full angle / full retract. [/QUOTE]
