I have an 04 TL with Navi and while playing a CD, it all of sudden stop playing. I tried to change the disc to see if another CD would work & the results were not good. I've experienced certain newer CD's not playing and thought that was the problem. Lastly, the term "FORMAT" popped up. Anyone experience any sort of problems like this?

 

Hmm never heard of that or seen FORMAT on mine.. Are these burned CDS and if so at what speed are you burning them?

Does the CD skip or is there some wierd scratchy sound or something?

 

Run a CD cleaner first since your TL is an 04 you more than likely have dust collecting up...ooor if this only happens after its been playing a while, you are having component failure due to heat stress. Try the cleaner first then if no luck shop around for replacement lower head unit
