Mine was doing the same for a few years on and off. The standard CD lens cleaners do work for a bit, as it will try to read it and brush the head.

FOr me this lasted a few months- there was some paint dust from a previous owners tinting work which seemed to circulate into the lens after time.

Its actually not too difficult to open the DVD drive and clean the lens directly with a cotton bud soaked in Isopropyl alcohol.

I wonder where the lens is within the drive. I've got some very long cutips which in theory could be inserted into the slot the DVD goes in but where is the laser head.

I cant remember the details, and didn't take any photos, but generally the lens is in a slot and parks towards the centre hub

Yes as discs are read from the 'inside>out'

I would buy a lens cleaner and try it.

I would as well because with such a slim slot and lens close to the middle it will be very tricky to succeed.
