so every cd you put into your cd changer, it doesn't read?

common problem, you probably need a new one ... or time to go after market

(though 'error 4' is more common, 'error 1' is also fairly frequent)

Correct. I wasnt expecting to have to change the Deck as they are a little overpriced. Time for an IS350 ill have one in a month or so.

I get 'error1' all the time too It rarely used to happen now it's pretty much on a daily basis. It really sucks having to listen to the radio. Aftermarket, here I come

Welcome to the world of the IS300's 6 Disc Changer. The dealer's swapped mine out twice! It's always the same reason everybody else's doesn't work. The "innerds" of the changer suck. Next time I'll just plug my ipod into the cassette deck with an adapter.

My changer doesnt work, but my #1 slot works as a single CD unit. So I get to listen to CD's, but I have to individually change it by hand . When the time comes, aftermarket FTW!!!
