top button opens the lid, but bottom button does not seem to do anything, not used one before and only had car a month. A was assuming it would adjust the hight?
I suppose the mech. is buggerd? Whats the normal operation please guys? And is it likely to break again, if i lean on it to heavy. Tar

Face lift 3.2 elite 52 plate.

I noticed it presses in aswell but i dont think it specifically does anything, the armrest folds up and down freely and stays where its put without having to clip or unclip anything

i dont think theres any actual function of the bottom button thing, had it on both my facelifts, i wouldnt worry about it!

[Pitchfork]

Is it for the passenger ejector seat??

[davlad22]

Pop out storage for the Walther PPK. Shush, don't tell anyone

 oil slick! So us townys can get our own back on bloody farmers chucking muck all over the road

On my MV6 that button releases the 2 slide out Cup Holder Tray on the side of the Gearbox Consol.






















Only Joking, don't have cue, always wondered thou.

[feeutfo]

wow ejector cup holders! Part numbers anyone?


Had a bit of a play on the way home and can just about feel a bit of a ratchet at the bottom of travel.

As far as i can see it does absolutely nothing.Vauxhall must be playing a joke although it would make a nice cupholder tray

*goes for a look at this hitherto unnoticed beacon of gadgetry*

Can't find out what it does... *looks in handbook*

"To lower armrest fully - press the button on the bottom"...

*goes back out*

It's right! It gives you a whole extra 3mm of drop at the front if you engage the button while lowering the armrest! Wow!

Actually Your right, just had a play with it and it drops the front down about 1.5 cm on mine, well done that man .

Also noticed while playing with it, that if you lift the lid while folding it back it also acts as a tray for the rear passengers, never knew that one :-?.

cant imagine it being too strong, but in any case, my passengers aren't allowed the rear tray, cos its for folding down and resting my arm on!!

Blows out my sixth seat theory then

Had mine in bits the other day in case the mech was broken but it seems to do very little other than allow the arm rest down another 20mm or so.

Perhaps it's a seat for a hamster (non-top gear type) ... or other pet rodent...
