I had a similar problem reading data from the CD in our Pug 206 Sat-Nav system. I contacted the vendor (Navteq*) who tried blaiming everything - the headunit, disk reader, GPS locator - except their CD which was less than 3 months old.
I took the CD out of the car and put it in our PC. There were 7 bad sectors on the CD which the PC will eventually read after multiple scans but obviously in the car, on the move, you don't have time for the system to keep rescanning.
I burnt a new CD. Works perfectly everytime.
If the CD is getting on a bit, it might be worth copying (if you have a PC with a burner). I used Nero to create my personal backup - so I don't infringe any copyright laws here.
* Never buy a system which uses Navteq maps. They only guarantee it for 30 days. Bit much if you buy a system to cover Europe and you don't have the time to test every square mile before the 30 days are up.
