The top half of my center console will not close and it appears a piece of metal broke loose from the locking mechanism. (See photos) ....
I have two questions. Is this one of those wear and tear items not covered under the warranty? (I have 13 months left on the OEM warranty). If it is not covered, do I have to replace the whole console or is there a separate part I can buy to fix it myself.
As stated in title, it stays open half way. I was thinking just converting it to none lid one since I always keep it open, and I believe the non closing one would hold more items?
View 2 RepliesMy wife spilled some cola from the cup holders in the center console and it got into the Hi/Low range rotary switch and the stability control button. Now the button and switch are all sticky and barely work. Looking for instructions on how to take the center console apart so I can get to those switches and wash them out with alcohol or something to get them working again...
View 1 RepliesCool weather has finally arrived in Michigan and brought with it the first interior squeak for my Touareg. I have isolated the squeak to the center console. It happens on rough roads (plenty of those in MI) or when I rest my right arm on the console.
It appears that the console lid flexes a bit even when latched. I'm thinking about adding a couple of the clear, flexible pads to the bottom, front corners of the console lid to see if that will eliminate the problem.
How to remove the overhead center console? I have two false buttons - one on each side of the homelink buttons. Someone pushed on one of them and it popped up inside the console. I've pulled pretty strongly on the console and it comes down about a half inch, and I can see some clips inside holding it, but can't seem to pull it far enough down to get access. I don't want to break the console in half...
View 1 RepliesThis weekend I suddenly got a hard vibration from below the center console. This kicks in at about 30kms/h, continues even if I move the car into Neutral and free wheel.
View 2 RepliesI have on '06 V6. This slight rattle/vibration only happens during the first 5 minutes of driving, and only starts AS am driving down a slight hill from our development. It doesn't seem mechanical. It just sounds like an interior piece is loose. It seems to be coming from the center console or passenger seat area. It doesn't happen everyday. Once I am on the highway, flat area or after a few minutes it's gone. I have shuffled everything around in the center storage area, glove compartment, seat belt - nothing.
View 3 RepliesFor the life of me, I can't figure out how to get into the space between the right side of the driver's seat and the center console. I have lost medication, coins, and a french fry . I've tried all sorts of power adjustments but I can never make any clearance. Once something falls down there, if I stick my hand to grab it, it falls into no man's land.

I'm going to be hard wiring a protech cell phone mount at the center vents. I'd like to run a clean install, and ideally tap into the existing 12v socket next to the shifter. It looks like I'll need to take a fair amount apart.

I would like to buy a V to deliver mail. I would need to remove the center console so I can sit in the middle. I did this in my 05. Can it be done fairly easily and will the mode switch come out of the console for mounting elsewhere, like under the dash or seat?

So how does it look on yours? Are yours even on both sides?

View 13 RepliesMy R is an earlier model with the Aux-in in the glovebox. I cannot think of a more inconvenient place to put an aux in cable which is why they change it I am sure. I would like to reroute the existing one or at least add an extender cable from the glove box to one of the unused buttons near the ash tray.
