In the car, CD-RW works. CD-R doesn't

The subject line pretty much sums it up.
If I burn an audio CD on CD-RW it plays fine in my 2005 Altima.
When I burn, only recently though, an audio CD on a CD-R (not re-
writable) it doesn't work.

I have some old CD-R's that play just fine. I don't know what I'm
doing wrong.

My PC/CD burner was having issues so I thought to replace it. A few
months later and I'm still having the same issue.

To top it off, it's becoming quite hard to find CD-RW's here in the
local market. I have this one that I keep re-burning after I get sick
of the current selection.

Any ideas?

I've tried going down to 4x burning speed.
I've tried finalizing and not finalizing.
I've tried the different Nero strategies for burning.
I've upgraded Nero.
I've tried caching and not caching the mp3's, which are already on my
hard drive.
I've tried Disc-at-Once and Track-at-Once.

And I think I've tried all the possible combinations.

Any direction I get would be HIGHLY appreciated.

TIA.
