As above, it wont stay closed. Anyone had this?
Does the whole unit need replacing or just a spring/ mechanism?
 
Excellent opportunity to give up smoking. ditch the ash trays and add value to your car.....
 
Thankfully im not a smoker, but with it being constantly open is going to annoy me. Is there an Audi parts online site, so i can search for the part and get a part number and price then ordered one up as I cant see one on fleebay.
 
I swapped mine out, it give you far more space and its not dear at all. It might be a better option?
 
what color is your ashtray? I've just take a black on out my car, average condition, where abouts are you? come collect it, or il post it out for a drink.

Just need to find it

Gloss Grey I think. Im in Brighton.
 
you can remove the ashtray and replace it with a larger cubby hole, it gives you a larger area under the aircon control.

Oooh.. I just googled and I see, I had that on my S3 8L. Think I will keep it as not that fussed. Just a repair or replacement needed.
 
Id agree with Khufu.. “just remove the ashtray and replace it with a larger cubby hole”
This is what I have it looks better IMO and good space to put phone/house keys/ wallet just for the journey.
 
I'm having a bit of that, York Audi tomoz. Cheers all.
