I let the player play for a little while and it FINALLY stops skipping once it's warmed up, but the frustration of that process is ridiculous. Maybe contacting Bose would help?

2000 I35t Issues by gobucks70

I have a 2000 I35t that is currently having a sensor replaced at a local garage. They've told me that I'll have to take it to an Infiniti dealer to have the computer reset after the replacement, though. Anyone know anything about this?
 
Also, my driver side headlight (Xenon) is out but the bulb is still good. Any electrical system issues?
 
I noticed someone said something about a defective sunroof. Mine won't do the express open and won't close/seat on it's own. When the battery is disconnected and reconnected and everything is reset, it works correctly for a while. Anyone else had this issue?
 
Thanks for the help!

Thanks for your input. Please let me know if you find a permanent solution. I used a CD cleaner to clean the lens. It played a full CD without any problem but it is back to square one now. Your suggestion of calling BOSE or talking to a infinit dealer should help. Are these covered under warranty?
 
Thanks :

I would imagine that it would be under your car's warantee, but unfortunately I don't have one of those. I am going to try to find the model number of the in-dash and see if I can call Bose about it. I'll DEFINITELY let you know what I find out.

Recommended replacement schedule by rvenkat

Anyone know what the recommended replacement schedule for the water pump and/or timing chain is? I heard the latter does not need to be changed as long as you do regular oil changes but what about the water pump? Thanks.

I have an '03 I35 and just spoke with a service writer about the CD player skipping this morning. He indicated there was nothing they'd do, even if the car was under warranty, which I find hard to believe. Because it's weather related, he indicated, it's not a "persistent" problem. That's why I ended up here, of course. He also recommended a cleaning disc, but I see that's been only slightly effective.
 
I'm also going to try to contact BOSE about this. Perhaps with enough consumer interest, they or Infiniti will work to resolve the problem.

To be honest, I have had this problem for atleast the last ten years. Both my maxima's had that same problem, then I bought a I35 which currently has the same problem. A friend of mine has a Acura, and his CD player doesn't play for the first 20 minutes if its really cold outside. I was told by that even with a new Bose CD player eventually it's going to happen again.

Well, it's all just too sad that BOSE - one of the best sound system companies in the world - can't produce better quality than a weather conditioned stereo that skips to a bit of chill. And what a crock that the Bose package that people pay to have on this car is such a low quality for the price. I think I have learned that Bose is BEST left inside the house.

It should be pointed out here that Bose doesn't actually manufacture these units: they are produced under license by Clarion.
 
The only skips I have encountered on my 2000 I30 were from CD-Rs of perhaps questionable provenance; commercially-produced discs work just fine. (So far.) After consulting some tech types, I believe that even the CD-R issues can be mostly avoided by (1) burning at slower speeds and (2) sticking to 74-minute (650 mb) discs, which are easier to track than the ubiquitous 80-minute discs.
