Mine was jammed but not in that way .
I just undid all the screws and moved the cog's inside....pluged it in and then it spat it out.
Take it apart it's all you can do.
Any other suggestions? Anyone? :(

or well... you just jam a coat hanger in there or something. you can take pics and post a write up later!

after that take a look at the top and bottom, and which ever looks like it comes free easier go ahead and remove it. If removing the bottom simply exposes a big circut board (like it probably will), put it back on and take the top off instead. the idea is you want to get to the magazine so you can decompress or bend whatever little catch has latched on and won't let go.
You can search the forums, but i belive for stuck magazines and stuck CDs most folks have just taken theirs apart. I believe the internal workings and pretty straight forward. just don't break anyhting, force anyhting, or cut any wires and it'll go back together good as new. you could always call the dealership and i'm sure they'll get it out free of charge
couldnt be harder than cracking a safe.
