You may have a spindle motor bearing seizing up. If you can access the motor, 
try a drop of thin oil right at the top bearing and mop off any excess with a 
wick made from a piece of twisted newspaper.

Hi All 
I own a RCA DVD recorder model# DRC8040N still in warranty,I am not a Thomson 
service center . I do not have any experience on DVD recorders at all .Here 
is what happens can record 2-3 movies then I start getting disk error,disk 
error detected, and fan failure. I cleaned the fan with some canned air started 
to 
work,but still disk error.I called RCA CSR said to use lens cleaner it sat 
around about a month cleaned lens,it worked fine for 3 movies recording the 4th 
disk error. Do I have something heating up or do the CPU's in these things 
need a hard reset often. Any of you that work on these all help would be 
appreciated.
Thanks
