- In this video, I will show you how the fix the cup holder slider.
This is quite a common issue with the Golf 7, as the plastic sticks loose it stickiness after some time and then fall of, which is causing the problem.
Wifes wedding rind , engagement ring and eternity ring slid down behind sliding tray. Watched this video and was able to recover them all. Saved me thousands of pounds. Thanks
Thanks for the video mate, I lost my debit card down behind the slider was struggling to figure out how to get anywhere near it! Thanks again
Same as you: very helpful video!
This happened to me today, gonna do this tomorrow
Lol that happened to me week ago
Great video! I lost my bank card in there too and the lid was stuck about 80% open.
You don’t have to unplug the storage compartment, there’s enough cable to just hang it out to the left.
If you’ve got an auto like me, you’ll need to put the gear in D or N as you won’t have enough room to pull the storage compartment out. You’ll also need to unplug the cable for the gear indicator lights too.
Thanks man. You're right, not necessarily to unplug the storage compartment. Just did it to make things look a bit more "spacious" 👍
same thing happened to me today
Best explanation for this job. Thanks
Hi Dean, your video showed me how to save my wife’s wedding ring! It was dropped in my car cup holder. I really appreciate it. Good luck.
Hi Omid. Thanks for your comment, glad the video helped 👍 Enjoy
Thanks for the video. Very helpful. My dealer was going to charge me $450 to get it done 😂
Glad it helped. Dealers normally replace the whole unit, that's why so expensive. Rather DIY and save some money🤗
Thanks a lot for the video mate really helped me out
Thanks for the helpful video!
You helped me so so much. Thank you
Thank you very much, perfect video for my needs because i have some problems with the storage container door too, and will see what is going on there too.
Another question, i have the Silver plastic part surrounding the gear shift stripped, any one knows where to find that replacement part? TY!!
thank you soooo much for this video, i had an issue and VW quoted me £100, !!!! wtf.. Thanks to this video got in there and fixed the issue myself.
I was in the exact same situation, that's why I decided to figure it out and fix it myself. VW quoted me R3200 to fix it. Talk about daylight robbery
Thanks for the video man, hope I'll get mine fixed myself. The issue with mine is that it would not fully open. Something gets stuck when open to 60-65% which renders the second holder useless. I'll take my chances and have a go at some point.
Your welcome 👍 I believe it's one of the loose plastic sticks that is blocking the slider at the 60% mark. Opening the cupholder console should fix the issue. Good luck man
very helpfully. thanks =)
Danke dir!gleiches problem.
Your the best men 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks, bro
My wife just put one of our keys to flat there and ... This is one of the most stupid constructions VW ever did. Together wind the windows slider in Golf3/Golf4 where at some stage the glas just falls into the door. edit: was able to open everything, unfortunately my wife was driving around and the key slid all way back under the ventilation tube. cut up the isolation material and fished for 1-2 hours until i blocked it with 2 screw drivers from each side to prevent it sliding away. got it now 😅 daaaamn Golf
This just happened to me today. Most of my sticks have broken off. What glue did you use and has it stood the test of time?
How do you do step 9? What exactly do you unclip and how did you do it?
Hello!! My house keys have just fallen down this. Is there any risk of me messing up the electrics doing this 😩😩😩
Funniest story: My girlfriend put her ring on the cover and it felt down the space under the cup holders by the little opening in its root. It wasn't funny back then when I was panicking.
Perfeito 👏👏👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Just happened to me!!!
Could you please let me know what screwdriver was used for the screws??? A link to amazon would be helpfull.

Hello, did you use super glue to attach all the sticks?
Hello Alex. Yes, you can use any good quality glue, otherwise it will come off again in the future
VERY EASY
Ive dropped a sim card under there which i cant get replaced. Im gonna have to get in there
yeah i’m never getting that card back
I some how got a pound coin stuck behind and now the slider won't go all the way back. Fuck doing all that though
Anyone done this and it’s messed up the parking break? As you have to unplug it?
You can just switch your car off and on again. It will auto callobrate the parking break after a restart
@@DeanWilliamMills spot on, cheers for the reply 👍
Today my id card slided into the console, i don't remember when i was that angry, frustrated, stressed and incredulous. this is a BIG, BIG minus point for VW, how the hell you design that stupid thing??? this causes a very stressfull situation and i need a refund from your stupid flaws, damn you VW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Danbilotto I Just lost my credit card down there! Was this the only way to get to your ID or is there a quicker way?
@@Marcos-qq6jb Hi, maybe try to acces from the bottom sticking your fingers from below the console but as you have noticed the space is very limited and it's hard if you don't see the card where it is. I have don't succeed that way and ended up to dismantle the entire console like on this video.
Danbilotto thanks man. I’m having some trouble cause mine in the 7.5 golf. I’ll try figure it out though
Just happened 20 minutes ago.
FML😭
@@russhuxter my girlfriend just lost her ring
😅it's too hard
Thats probably the filthiest mk7 i've ever seeb, you shpuld have cleaned it before screwing it back together
Correct, I should have actually cleaned it as well. Busy with construction in our complex, hence the filthiness
Get rid of background noise champ.👎
