When i purchased my 07 LT1 i could have sworn that the sticker on the windows mentioned MP3 radio or something of that sort. I tried putting in a cd full of mp3's and it did not work. Is it only the LT2 that plays MP3 on cd's?

 

nope my 1 LT does, it only support a certain amout of sub folder, and such. check out the manual it should tell you.

 

My new LT2 plays MP3's, but not well, lots skips, swipes & smears, very annoying. This was the same on my 2006 Impala, so annoying that I stopped even trying. A few years ago, I bought a brand new Clarion head unit for my old Saab for all of $88. It played MP3s flawlessly, so well that I removed my 6 disc CD changer from the trunk and sold it to another Saab enthusiast on eBay for $120. So I ended up with an MP3 player that would play up to 13 CD's worth of music in place of a 6 disc unit, AND a profit besides.
These GM units just can't compete with what you can find in the aftermarket, not even an $88 unit. Pitifull!
Also, it takes a long time to read the whole disc, recognize as MP3 and load up.

 

I dunno, I have a '08 2LT and I made a CD with 87 tracks, there are 8 folders and the name of the songs appear on the face, it takes about 8-10 seconds for it to load up, never skips. I recorded 90% of the tracks at 320 bit rate and a few are 200 something bit rate. Sounds great!

 

my player works great!!!!!!!!!

 

My burned CD's work fine on my 06 LT2 single disk. Is that the same as an MP3?

 

How many songs are on your full cd? If a full cd is 17-20 songs, then you burned it as a regular cd-audio cd. If a full cd is around 175 songs, then you burned it as an mp3 disc. Check out the software you use to burn, it should give you the choice.

 

mp3 disc = data disc
regular cd = music disc

but yeah if youi have like 300 songs on a cd then its mp3

my LT2 has the 6 disc changer and i have 6 mp3 discs in there.. cancelled my XM and well pretty have allthe music i normally listen too anyways...even tho i do miss some of the XM programs

use NERO burn rom i think its one of the or if not the best one.. it has a thing to where you can verify the contents of your cd and ive never had problems with it

only thing i wish chevy would make the face plate/display better for the MP3s.. iwish it was like a scrolling thing so you can see th name/artist/title etc without having to push the button u know?

 

Let me know the last 6 digits of your VIN and I can tell you if it has an MP3 capable cd player.

 

I use Nero on XP and never any problems playing mp3s.
