- How to remove and repair center console storage compartment cup holder ashtray lid for Mercedes-Benz W212 E-Class sedan and estate 2009 - 2016 procedure its almost same for all W212 models.
According to mb manual recommend to turn spring tensioner wheel 180 degrees but think you may try 360 as you can se in this video it not doing that much but now it closes without help. Be careful when remove cable från spring wheel if you loose tension you may broke it.
Some also say you should put grease in the rail, and some say not because it going to stick with dirt. If you got same problem you may try out some other things to get it to glid better. Going to replace trims and panel in the car later and need to remove this lid again then I figure out a better solution.
When working with this kind of panels you only should use the right tools to not damage anything. You find links in the comment section. If you got a better solution for this fix let me know in the comment thanks. - Auta a dopravní prostředky

I'd really like to thank you for the in depth tutorial. On how to replace the control knob, and fix the sliding drawer. Excellent 👍 job, thank you.
Thank you too for the kind comment 👍
Hands down the best and the only W212 AC control unit removal video, hidden inside this video
Thanks got pleased to hear my videos coming to use 👌
고마워 항상 유익하게 보고있어
Perfect, I really needed this video! Thanks Man!
Great : )
Great video. Just done mine and had to do two full turns (720 degrees) on the wheels to get the sliding cover to move nicely even with some silicon on the runners.
Thanks! Glad you got it to work nicely. Going to remove this again and then doing full turn and some kind of silicone, which brand did you use?
Halfords Silicon Spray Lubricant. I’ve had it for years as I used to use it on the door rubbers on my Audi Coupe to stop them squeaking.
Great video really helpful thanks
You are the best teacher best car master
Watched the video and the section you left out putting the cover on the console latch. We are having trouble installing it back
Thanks again so much Sir got the tools online as you suggested.
Hopefully I’ll succeed😇🙏
My first time
Nice 👍 Let me know how it went.
Thanks for the fantastic video, which helped me to fix and remove the 12v power socket. It saved me lots of money!
Great video, love it. My lid got broken and need to find replacement. Do you have any video link to replace this part and what is the part number. Still looking this part but dunno where to find it.
Brilliant
Very good video
Hi
Thanks for the video, its really helpful
The part you removed on minute 02:50, that one is so hard. May you please show it in details how to take it out.
Thanks again
You a guru
Good job sir
🙌
Amazing I like
Sir hi again. Hoping to inquire. Lighter is working but the circle light no power it doesn’t light anymore. Same with the ashtray no light. Do you have a video about that? Very much obliged stay blessed🙏😇❤️
Is working well
Thank you
Super video
Thank you 🤟
So i got mine broken, the cable is out in compartment. What are the chances that it is repairable? I fear it got totally unwinded and might be broken.
Thanks for bolts part numbers, I have missing one when removed.
Glad it come to help. Always that in mind because I lost sometimes some small parts and it can be hard to find if you not go the mb catalog 👍
Is there a solution for the center compartment doors? One of mine won't spring open. It's a minor inconvenience.
Tack för bra video. Spände 270 grader. Blev bättre men inte bra. Funkade bra utanför men nåt hakar i halvvägs.
Har inte fått till någon riktigt bra har haft upp 3 olika konsoler, men nu har jag slutat bry mig om det, det här lite till för den här modellen ☺️ Dock är inte det så fasligt dyrt o köpa hela konsolen ny ca 1500 kr
@@MB212 Verkar så. Min förra Mersa var en E-220 Sedan modell 2003. Hade en lucka som stängdes automatiskt efter 30 sek. Mycket tillfredsställande. Det här verkar vara ett steg bakåt.
I have to replace that knob opener for the armrest storage, the first piece removed in the video. Can that be bought separately? If yes, can someone please give me the part number ? Mine is broken
Hello, how is the plastic trim holding the handle to open the armrest compartment comes off so easily? Mine seems like it's screwed on or something
Hi, where can I find the cup holder in the video? It seems not a genuine parts from MB, thanks
Silicone spray on the runners would also help
Respekt 👍🏻
Thanks 🙏
Good evening and good morning to all.
I was ready to fix it but when I watch the video again I got the wrong pick. Instead I bought the
Pick for the AC vent. Sirs where did you get the hook pick you used. Take care all God bless😇🙏
Don’t worry you could make it at home that’s exactly what I done with all my pulling hooks in different sizes. I did use welding sticks that I bent, is really easy. You could use something else you got at home. If you not have any go to a hardware store and buy some small metal sticks 👍
Sorry hope not too late to ask
Do I have to remove the battery ground before the repair? Thanks again Sir
You could remove the ground from battery to avoid any fault codes. But as long you don’t start the car before everything is back you should be good.
Sir do you have the link of tools you used? VW much obliged happy safe weekend God bless😇🙏
Thanks the pulling hooks are homemade from welding sticks, made some in various lengths and appearance. Is actually really easy to bend some old sticks into pulling hooks. The screwdriver is a standard TORX T20.
When I get back on the laptop I send you links where you can get similar tools for this task 👍

굿^^
Luckan i min fastnar halvvägs stängd, går inte att tvinga den hela vägen heller.. iallafall inte utan att ha sönder något känns det som. Något du vet hur man fixar? Tror det beror på något annat än vad denna videon visar.
Sirs now my car won’t start
It’s say srs malfunction
Service required
My mistake all the interior lights were on for about almost an hour just removing it. Same time when I put it back. Battery was drained. Sirs how to turn off linterior lights when doors are open? Thanks happy healthy safe weekend God bless👏😇🙏
Would have gotten better results by cleaning and re-greasing the guide rails on sides.
There’s something missing between 2:45 - 2:50. Because that latch piece is not coming off that ez. I broke my damn nail. 😩
Send me pic on Snapchat “lilgnistan” or mail om651benz@yahoo.com and I try help you out 👍
@@MB212 Cool. I'm just seeing this. I'll email you.

All plastic fantastic... Don t know why lot of people think its a good car.
That’s on all cars, newer the more. Still think is a solid car. Some plastic I would prefer be better but compare to many others cars is really solid.
Giv den silicon spray. det virker
Thank you it’s that same thing that they use from factory if you know?
@@MB212Hey. Det ved jeg ikke. men det virker på min S212.
i’d love to do this. but i’m lazy. lmao
Go for it only about 2 hours and you’re done : ) You may try a bit silicone or some kind of grease to get better glide according to some that had repair it.
MB212 just did it :) it was about 2 hours and prying felt like i was about to break something but nope. lol thanks again for this video. i didn’t realize the string had a holder at the top to glide on, thought i broke it at first. i only did 180° as mine wasn’t that bad? and in the future i think i can maybe do 180° again
Agree there some clips really feel they going to break with all fore to remove them 😅 Read in web some that try 360 turn to get better glide and it works according to them. But it works better now then? Mine still a bit slow but not as it was before fix.
Wheres your shop??????
Northern Sweden in Arctic Circle probably long away from most of my viewers here unfortunately!
@@MB212 Ever thought about moving to Florida?;)
О чем видео?
Needs some lubrication
Actually try with that method when changing trims but could not feel any different seems hard to repair these units 100% good.
It's fault yet
Yess
I want my 11 minutes back
You could have stop watching after 1 minute and you would spare 10 min at least. But if you decide to watch all 11 minutes is your own fault 🤣
@@MB212 😁😁😁 i was hoping to see a satisfying ending my friend 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍 but yeah .. you are right
@@MB212 i never thought it wold be so complicated like that 🥴
Haha I got you bro!
Omg.....the heater does not need to be removed......the nav wheel comes out with trim.....the centre console release does not need to be removed and the whole cup holder section comes out in one piece.....this guy is an amateur.......once the top trim of heater is removed and released on the sides it tip up and the whole section slides out
Your state pretty obvious things like the cup holder, pretty sure all that have some common sense know is not needed to be removed. Nav wheel do not come out with the trim. But this procedure is done the same way as Mercedes manuals recommend.
I believe you think about the facelift model there is not same procedure with the nav wheel, is not same design as pre facelift.
