Found on the floor!

Featured Replies

Any ideas what this has come off? Found on the passenger floor. I have had the glovebox out. It has a small toothed wheel on it which rotates.IMG_20200823_153253.thumb.jpg.ffd0554b511711074d31193781ab0d6c.jpgIMG_20200823_153340.thumb.jpg.c30bde01fd46c2fe49e6fdc669c1c3aa.jpg

Hi, that's part of the soft-close strut for the glove compartment. A bit of a fiddly job to put back together. The strut fits on the left-hand side of the compartment lid.

Terrific! Thanks. There is a floppy lever thingy on the right-hand side of the glove box (R H Drive car?)

Hi again, it happened to me too the first time I removed the lid to replace the cabin (pollen) filter. The lever unhooks from a pivot near where the left hand side of the compartment hinges - lift the lever up to unhook, you should be able to fit it back together if the lever isn't broken. The small cog wheel arm runs in the groove with the rack teeth.   Rather a fiddly job to get it hooked back on to the pivot - I made up a hook from a strip of alloy to hook/unhook the arm back on as my hands are too big to fit in the gap, it took a few tries! - and quite a few muttered curses - mainly directed at the parentage of the person responsible for the RHD conversion design!

Thanks, Warrior - I think I'll let Skoda fix this at the first service!
