View Full Version : 100mph and CD player skips stangmatt66 10-03-2003, 11:21 AM On my way to work this morning, I passed a few cars on the freeway and hit 100mph...te he he :D ...with a CD playing. The moment I hit 100mph, the CD started skipping uncontrollably and didn't stop until I got below 100 again. The CD is brand new, store bought and has no scratches. I've heard of this happening on American cars (Chevy's for the most part). But it never happened on my VW or Toyota's. Anyone else noticed this? stockae92 10-03-2003, 01:04 PM was the road bumpy at all? Squidward 10-03-2003, 01:49 PM wow, you're going 100+ mph and you're worried about the CD player?? haha crazy mofo RX-GR8 10-03-2003, 02:19 PM go 99 everything will be fine. :D stockae92 10-03-2003, 02:21 PM Originally posted by Squidward wow, you're going 100+ mph and you're worried about the CD player?? haha crazy mofo you know you got to listen to the tunes gotta go fast with style :cool: :D allstate 10-03-2003, 03:16 PM My CD plays fine at excess speeds...has this happened more than once? Maybe it was just a bad CD and a crazy coincidence. stangmatt66 10-03-2003, 03:21 PM No, the road wasn't bumpy.... ::sighs:: looks like I'll have to experiment and try it again .... :D :p stockae92 10-03-2003, 03:57 PM Originally posted by stangmatt66 No, the road wasn't bumpy.... ::sighs:: looks like I'll have to experiment and try it again .... :D :p that's a good excuse for speeding? lol :D "sorry officer, i am just trying to see if my CD player will skip at excessive speed" :p tribal azn2 10-03-2003, 04:49 PM my cd player runs fine at 100 P00Man 10-03-2003, 06:29 PM mine too (fine @ 100+) ________ Inhale vaporizer instructions (http://vaporizerinfo.com/) VelocityRedRX8 10-03-2003, 07:08 PM Mine plays fine at 100+, but have only reached it briefly (still breaking in). syntrix 10-03-2003, 07:09 PM Mine was fine at 105+ on the front straight of the track today. Wait, why the F did I have music on during a track event, LOL. mikeb 10-03-2003, 07:24 PM your speed shouldn't matter downshift 10-03-2003, 08:52 PM IIRC, the audio system adjusts the volume based on speed, no? If so, then the system could be defective or not calibrated correctly? Squidward 10-04-2003, 03:07 AM Originally posted by downshift IIRC, the audio system adjusts the volume based on speed, no? If so, then the system could be defective or not calibrated correctly? true but I don't know if that has anything to do with the skipping. I think he's hitting a speed/gear combination that is causing some resonance/vibration, which is causing the skipping.. I know at a certain gear and speed, my clutch/stickshift vibrates more than usual.. Your car might not be as smoothly as it should.. I would look into it a little more.. keep an eye out for clutch/trans/stick vibrations at certain RPMs.. that might be the cause. |
