kenc 0 Posted January 6, 2006 Centre console surrounding the handbrake, has broke and does not sit right when the handbrake is up or down. The trim seems to sit up about 1cm or so. Any solutuions as to what has caused this people ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZippyVR6 0 Posted January 7, 2006 sounds like it has been out and not put back propperly, Fraid the only answer is to ave it out and try again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andy 0 Posted January 7, 2006 The lugs that are there to hold the thing down are really brittle plastic and puny, they may have broken off, 3 out of 4 of mine have! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
selbekk 0 Posted January 7, 2006 it's incredible what a little velcro can fix! :) As said, try to remount it, and if that's not helping, look if there are any lugs left. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cymru-corrado 0 Posted January 8, 2006 the little flapper bit on my handbrake i used an elastic band to hold it on and the other large bit of trim i've had to screw down with 4 small screw to hold it in place.did the job and looks neat and tidy.

Neil VR6 0 Posted January 10, 2006 Mine's fecked too. The plastic nuts are a pain to get to and don't tighten up properly anyway. Bad VAG. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OK VR6 0 Posted January 10, 2006 what about the plastic strip that runs along the top of the steering colum just behind the hazard light switch. mine is well lose, any bumps and it rattles. Any ideas, btw what is it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andy 0 Posted January 10, 2006 Its not just a strip, that part goes all the way round the instruments, it should have several screw fixings, are they all tight/present. Two of mine are broken which causes rattling, I'm going to get another one and felt line it before it goes back! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OK VR6 0 Posted January 10, 2006 are u sure we are talking about the same thing, u can push it down and it springs back up? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil VR6 0 Posted January 10, 2006 Think we're now talking about two things. Originally we were on the big bit of trim around the handbrake which springs up and mis-aligns with the gearstick trim. Then we went onto something around the steering column :?: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
