Jake666,

Sounds based upon your description that theres someing wrong with the radio itself, not the system. It could be anything from any of the buttons malfunctioning to something more internal. My suggestion is to try another OE 6Disk radio and see if the same issue duplicates itself. If you try this and it works just fine with another OE radio, then it was the old radio itself. If the problem continues, then its in the system. You will have to rule things out. I have an OE 6 disk here for sale on my shelf if you want to try it.
The other alternative would be to just go aftermarket but like you said, you could run into interfacing issues.
