Original Audio CD`s and Computer recordable CD`s are a completely different format. They may look the same, but they are wildy different.
Without bogging everybody down with too much technical detail, in laymans terms the size of the "Dots" on the recordable disc is much smaller than the original disc to account for the more heavily compressed data that can be written to it. Remember it was intended for computer use for backing up data, not for ripping tunes!
Although a "healthy" CD player may on occasion be able to read these smaller Dots, the laser is doing so much damage to itself due to the extra amount of focussing it has to do to read the much smaller dots that it will wear itself out very very fast due to the extra level of strain it is under.
As the Original OEM units many years ago were built purely to a budget with a design spec of make the stereo louder than the rattles of the car(!) they were never designed foir use with CDR`s. As later models were introduced with recordable discs being the norm, the in Car market are building units with smaller focussing lasers to cope with this. But, although this has been widely available for the aftermarket, the OEM manufacturers are only just starting to include it.
My advice would be that if you have an OEM head unit that was manufactured before 2004 and does NOT have MP3 markings, then it can pretty much be taken as read that it is NOT CD`r compatable.
There are a few exceptions to this, but not that will apply to Vauxhall !
