a major problem with the LCR, thinking of selling up!

[karlosR]

ok, now i've got your attention i've got a really small problem with my LCR. my cupholder is stuck! after one of my regular trips to the golden arches the cupholder seemed a bit stiff to push back in so i forced it home, now it has stuck and doesn't sit flush with the hazard lights button, it looks like it has gone too far in. i don't want to prise it open incase i break it..... please help!

use a knife and lever it, you can get the whole dash bit with all hazard and cupholder bits for 25 quid off ebay, or finish your drink before you get in the car.

curiosity got the better of me, i prised it open. there seems to be no spring action anymore so it looks like a new cup holder is in order........... but it is right at the bottom of my to do list.

same here my drink holder is buggered too, might try it under warranty.

 

[karlosR]

On first toledo I had to punch the front of the cup holder for it to eject

Looks like a bit of a pain to repair so i'd say dealer if in warrnaty
