Thanks for all the replies and assistance BTW
Try a wet-type laser cleaner first (available at any hifi / music store

Otherwise, order a replacement drive:

Drive looks like this:


See here:

Part number 65839197611

Also available via other sources, such as here:

Around 143 Euros for the entire DVD drive.
