There have been post before but I finally found out how to successfully burn CD's that will work.
I use Roxio Easy CD Creator
I burn them at 4x, which takes longer but insures that they will work
I found out that if I use the DISC-AT-ONCE setting, they play fine. I have been using Sony CD-R's.
When I used the track at once setting the CD Player in my TL would take forever to find a track/sometimes not at all. By changing the recording setting to DISC-AT-ONCE, I have CD'S that work perfectly. Just like the original recordings. Hope this might help some with this annoying problem.

Thanks for posting!

As a caveat, what works for one head unit might not work for the next. There are unit to unit variations and some of the single CD units won't play CD-Rs no matter what the burning strategy.

My solution was to replace my single disc unit in my 1999 TL with the 6-disc unit used in the 02-03 TL.

Many have tried that as well. Its all hit and miss with the media. Like stated above, what works for some doesnt for others.

Just thought I'd pass along my experiences with what works and doesn't work with mine. Different burners will work differently, but this works with mine.

It's great that you posted your successful technique.

That's appreciated.

The "it may not work for everyone" comment is just so that people don't get their hopes too high until they try it.

For example, some have found that a particular type of blank CD-R works great only to find that a subsequent batch of the same type won't work.

The single CD head units are really touchy.

Not sure what version of the Roxi Burner. So did this work for anyone else?

chinexcodo

Yes this definitely did work for me. The CD player works perfectly with the burnt Sony CD-R.

As a caution, it could be that your next batch of the exact same CD-Rs will not work well. Others have reported that problem. So, if you have a pile of those Sony CD-Rs, you might want to reserve them for your TL.

That brand never worked for me. The only ones i could ever get to work were the Verbatium blues, and not every batch would work.
