greeneyes Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Yes, quite common on the early models. Matt McN may have the thread on the UK Club site, but somewhere on their site is the info about it. You can make it unload all the CDs, or load it right up then unload it, and it will eventually fix itself. (for a while) They changed the CD player in 2000 I think it was, not that that will help! I've forgotten which CD bay it is on mine, but one of them is duff. kp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew_McNally Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 this is a very common problem on IS's. Hate to tell you to go search on the UK forums - so I have done it for you! all the topics on UK Lexus Owners Club regarding IS CD ERR3 problem ;) basically, what you will find is that it is a common problem, which is covered by the warranty. In the UK, the warranty has been extended to 4 years for the stereo - because of this exact problem. How old is your car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greeneyes Posted July 13, 2003 Share Posted July 13, 2003 I threw a couple of extra CDs in the car on Sat morning when I left to go to Rotorua. Fed in one, it went in to stack place number 5, fed in the next and got ERR3!! :( Pulled out the 6th one and it runs fine, so mine is just a five cd unit. Hopefully jetezza can help you kiddo.
