Question Rewritable CD's?

Does anyone know how to get a rewritable CD to play in the stock stereos?

It seems like both in my truck, and especially in my Magnum, it will play one for a while and then all of a sudden stop and display ERROR or DISK ERROR. My truck has the Infinity sound system and is a 2003 and my Magnum is an 05 with the Boston Acoustics stereo with Nav and I use Itunes on a PC w/ a sony disk writer to write them.

Any help?

Thanks
