The majority of the time when itry to open the disk tray of my xbox360 it becomes seemingly stuck and does not open, the system then attempts to read a non existent disk. If i tap on the tray opening, it will then slide out. Yet not automatically or by manually pressing the open button as it should. PLEASE HELP. what may be causing the problem? and what could be done to resolve it?i appreciate any helpful suggestions. thank you.

This happens to me all the time. It takes multiple tries to open the disc tray, but it's been like this forever now, and I haven't had any other problems.

They would probably just tell you to deal with it and not give you a new one/ repair your current one.

Well, I'm glad to hear that this isnt necessarily the beginning of the end of my system, thanks.

I bought mine and two weeks later, when I was playing a game, something snapped and all I heard were very loud grinding sounds. The disk tray no longer could spin discs. I sent it back to MS immediately. This is a known issue.

If your warranty is still valid you should get it fixed asap.
