Default CD Changer Stuck

Anyone have any experience with their factory CD-changer ('99 A4) getting stuck? I'm getting an ERR3 on my stereo and the changer won't eject. The changer is getting power. When I try to eject it, the changer clicks and that's about it. I'm thinking a CD may be stuck in the player for some reason or another?

Any ideas?

Default Re: CD Changer Stuck (somewhat long)...

I just had the same problem. Using a bright flashlight, I could see that one of the discs was partially out of the cartridge, halfway fed into the player. I (gently) used an exacto-type knife to prod the disc over, as well as a thin card to trigger the release mechanism which is near the top of where the cartridge mates to the changer. Presto, it became unstuck and was able to be ejected (no problems since then). I think that there may be a problem with changing discs while driving (perhaps a bump in the road jams the changing/switching process?).
