You could try to clean the laser lense before buying a new drive.

I suppose it's possible that a newer firmware is required for double layer DVDs. But prerecorded disks should work, as e. g. most movies come on double layer DVDs - and that was never different, so it should be supported. For DVD-R DL or DVD+R DL it may be different.
