Just a wild stab at it. Disconnect the battery for a few minutes and then reconnect. Try it with and without the magazine in it. When I do this with my Acura it spits out the CD.

cd tray stuck in changer
Has anyone ever had a single cd tray get stuck in the changer? I have no idea how this happened. Yes, I put the cd's in the individual trays label side facing down as you're supposed to...but now one of the trays won't retract into the magazine when I eject it. Damnit!! So now I'm stuck with a rotation of only 5 cd's instead of 6.
To make things worse the stuck cd/cd tray won't even play, it just gets skipped over when the previous cd ends. For example, I can go through cd's 1, 2, 3, it will skip #4, and go straight to 5, and 6. I don't want to stick anything into the changer to try to pop the tray out, but I have no idea what else I can attempt to fix this issue. Has anyone ever had this problem? And yes, I searched...to no avail
This is an '02 GS3 by the way.

Yes, very much so. My musical rotational capacity has been diminished by 16.6%!!! And one of my door actuators went out a few days ago...

Sounds like you are on the declining side of a trouble free experience. Trade it in and purchase a new one. HA HA. Run by the dealership and see if a tech will fix the problem, on the side, for a couple of bucks. At best he will be able to tell you if it is unable to be fixed. At which point you should read the second line of this post.

Not happenin'...I just got the car within the last couple of months. 
Anything's worth a shot at this point 
Sucks because other than that the car is SUPER inside and out.

It's not soooo bad. Just find a new one if you can and the install is easy.. I bought a new one on CL for 140.00. Dealer charges 130 to install if you can't.
