    Does the Radio in your dash have a mp3 sicker or insignia painted on the front of it if not it's probably not an mp3 player. Just because it's in your manual doesn't mean you have one.

    The MP3 radio is an option/upgrade which is usually not standard on all vehicles.

    Look guys, I KNOW that my deck plays MP3's I just want to know what I am doing wrong. 2008 GP GXP came standard equipment with MP3 capability, the badging for this came off of the front of the head unit in 2007 because IMO it looked hideous.

    Well that explains it. You took the MP3 badging off the head unit. It doesn't play MP3's cause it doesn't say it can. Put the badging back on the head unit and it will probably play. Hahahaha, sounds like something John Madden would say ah guys. No seriously dude. Try reburning that CD it could have gotten corrupt somehow. I have an 07 and I've burnt some music that I downloaded off of Imesh, it plays fine.

    My monsoon system does the smae thing, track 1 forever. Its funny how the monsoon should be the best system offered but the midgrade stereo is the only one that plays mp3.
