Yeah, a lens clean can sometimes do it, but usually it's the laser coming loose orsomething at the end. If you're confident with opening it up or it's a lost cause otherwise, just crack it open and see if any screws need tightening. I know thats what was wrong with my old drive.

Also worth checking is the brand of the CD. Have you tried more than one or have you sticked to one lately? I know I made a dumbass mistake last week and bought 74 min CDs and tried burning 80 mins on it and the overburn made it click a lot.
