Maintaining a Cd Changer

Yes I know supposed to be in Car Audio but its slow in replies......

I just recently bought a brand new MB MC-3010? cd changer off ebay and had it mounted in the stock location in the trunk.

I hear and read alot of troubles in the long run with the changers malfunctioning. Is there anyway to maintain it? Can I insert my cd player cleaning disc in it if I wanted occasionally?

I suppose you could CAREFULLY take it apart and re-lube all the mechanics and clean the laser with a soft cloth. I did on a early 90's Pioneer changer and it cut the noise down by 50%.

Not sure where or how, but there is a mechanism that you need to set depending on whether the changer will be mounted vertically or horizontally. From what I've read, that is usually the main problem with discs not playing properly.
