Exactly the same as you guys. It started when it couldn't take the CD. Then it became it couldn't eject the CD. Now, it can't do either!! I replaced the unit with another and it beeped because the computer knows it's not the same unit as the one matching the VIN. HELP!!!

If you can't fix it, then yes, replace it
A non Citroen aftermarket won't need coding but will need the correct wiring harness for a C3.

If you fit a citroen radio that is already coded to a different car, then the new setup (car and radio) will need to be coded to remove the 'beeping through the speakers' - use LEXIA tool for this (information topic).
