In the end you probably will have to send it back to nintendo unless you want to spend $100 for a new Wii Drive. Probably was a faulty laser, or a laser that was damaged during shipping somehow.

the question is how is it faulty when it can read gc games but not wii games

Honestly, I'm not sure, maybe the laser can't move enough to read the disc?

Was your Wii making a Clicking sound when they didn't read the discs? Cause mine occasionally has the problem of not reading Wii Discs, but when it doesn't read them, it makes a Clicking noise.
