I am picking up my TSX Monday (TOMORROW!) (No NAVI).. just wanted to know if
the 6 disc in dash supports random play for the cd's? Does it go random
across one cd or can it go across all 6?


Thank you... Yeah, crazy that this is my first question, but all my other
questions I've already been able to find out online.

Thank you in advance.

Congrats on the TSX! The head unit supports random on a single CD,
not across the 6 CDs. I would be too much delay between songs, not to
mention the wear and tear on the changer mechanism.

Enjoy the TSX, it's a great car.

Just learned something about CD changers in Acuras. Home made cds will
stick in the player. An in dash player requires that the radio be pulled
and sent off to somewhere to be unstuck. Suggest you stick to original
discs as they are not as thick as home made ones.

Does the TSX owner's manual say that the CD changer will play CD-R
and/or CD-RW discs? If so, this sounds like a manufacturer's defect
since there are no commercially-manufactured CD-R / CD-RW audio discs.

I've been playing homemade cd-r's in the 2000 TL since I bought the car new.
Never had a problem playing them. Nothing ever stuck.

But I don¹t glue labels on them either. I would be afraid to play anything
with glued on labels in any player other than a walkman.

No problems in my TSX either. Perhaps it was a problem in their early
generation CD changers, or maybe as E. Meyer mentioned people were
using labels.
