[QUOTE="marcopolo, post: 43048, member: 542636"] It's strange.... Mine is at least 4-5 years old (I'm a 2nd owner) and it didnt skip once. Do you have it mounted in any strange angle? They work best if they are in straight, horisontal position. I've tried toying around with my Alpy and it did skip when I shake it when it was in angled position. Never in horizontal, though. And it should be mounted firmly, not "a bit loose" as you say. Their CD mechanism is "sitting" on some soft silicone filled little suspensions and that can only do their job if the unit is firmly attached. Or maybe you've got yourself an Alpine's "black sheep"- take it back and have it replaced. You shouldnt have a skippy unit for that cash!! [/QUOTE]
