Installed my Z1 today and having a slight problem. The cd drive doesn't seem to fully eject cd's or dvd's. It sounds like it's trying to eject but never fully ejects, I have to use a pair of needle nose pliers to pull the cd out while it sits and tries to eject. It will read cd's and everything fine, but just won't eject them. Anyone have any ideas?

After checking that the CD slot is not being obstructed by anything,

then its probably has a defective motor that ejects the CD out. Return, replace or might have to send it to pioneer for service if not under warranty from the place you bought it.

Yelp, like djmixmac said it needs repair.It cost 200 for Pioneer to look at it if it's out of warranty.

ack, that's what i was afraid of, cd's go in just fine, just coming out is the problem.
