The last straw ??
« on: 01 December 2008, 08:34:07 »
Hi all .... ive been having small niggly problems with this car lately and this morning the front ashtry has decided it doesnt want to close and seems to get stuck with about 1 cm left to go before it closes ..... this is not a big problem i know but with all i've had to do to this car its very nearly the last straw  >:( >:(  ... i couldnt see any way of removing it to try and repair it but i'll have a look at the maintenence section . Any tips on how it comes out and why i should not kick the sh** out this car greatly appreciated  :y

Often with the ashtrays, a piece of small black plastic has broken off which prevents it from closing properly.  Take it out and have a look inside and you might find it.

If it's just jamming solid, then make sure that it's set in it's runners correctly.  Had that probblem also on mine!

It gets to within a cm of closing then stops ... seems to be the drivers side thats more jammed than passenger side.... did you need to remove it to fix it .
