Best bet would be to return it and get the refund if the seller is willing to give it.

u got screwed and alpine wont fix it because you bought it online.

I have asked people on a big UK forum, no reply yet.

It's most likely a mechanical problem, are there any repair places where you are? I'm sure someone could open it up and see what's catching. They might charge you a bench fee or something. Usually around $25.00 or so.

The problem is that I'm in the UK and this is a US spec unit. I purchased it via eBay.

Looks like I'll just have to return it to the seller for a refund. :(

And it looks so damn pretty sitting in my room, lol.

I would first contact Alpine about fixing it. I read about amp repair companies... but not really HU repair companies. And some of these no name repair companies are a little sketchy.... Alpine would be the only company i would call, and they will be able to tell you whats wrong... they made the product!!

Hi guys,

I recently purchased a second hand Alpine IVA-D310 (http://www.alpine-usa.com/US-en/product ... l=IVA-D310) it has a major fault though...

I installed the unit 100% correctly, and powered it up. It already had a CD in it which played fine, and all the other functions worked fine.. but when I went to eject the CD it made an ejecting noise for a split second (opposed to the usual long sound untill a disc is fully ejected) but the CD didnt come out! I then had to push the CD back in using another CD, then it made a brief loading noise and said 'disc loading error', then when I press the eject button the same happened as initially!

Anyway I eventually pulled the CD out with some small scissors. But now when I try to put a CD in, nothing grabs onto it and it just goes further and further in without being loaded! (

I purchased this unit second hand, and the seller wants a quote on fixing costs and will re-emburse me.

Does anyone know what the problem could be, and where/how I can get it fixed??
