CD transport for messed up Arcam

Hello
I have an Arcam Diva CD192 CD player, and it's not reading discs well. The problem has slowly gotten worse. I paid a fair chuck of change for this player a couple years ago and have been very happy with the sound of it. It took two whole months to break in,when it finaly did,it was an impressive sound indeed.
The machine will say "no disc" or error with red books and recorded ones. Sometimes it works OK though.Sometimes it give me alot of grief.Im sick of this issue.

My question. Can't I hook up a transport to the player?
If so,what's a good one that won't break the bank.

I'm most likely going to send it to a Arcam repair shop,but I'm looking at my options.I dont want the problem coming back.

Thanks for any input.
