North West Noob 3.0SI

Hello!

I purchased my beloved z4 at the start of August after pining for one over the past couple of years. After much research I settled on a 3.0 version and was lucky enough to find a well priced SI model within my budget.

The car is great fun to drive and is my daily driver (single, no kids, 15 minute work commute!).

However, one problem I have just had is my cup holder has gotten stuck. After searching the forums for similar problems (which seem somewhat common) all I could see where examples of when the cup holder and got stuck inside. Mine, on the other hand, is stuck outside and won't go back in! The spring is giving some feedback but I feel as if I push too hard something will break. I am tempted to take the whole unit out as if I were replacing it, this way I could have a better look around. But, if anyone has any experience with this particular issue I'd love to hear from you! If pictures are required that can be arranged.
 
Welcome to the forum OP!

Sorry I cannot help with the cupholder problem, but I think I would remove it to try to work out what the problem is.

Be warned we like to see photos, certainly before your 5th post at the latest! :lol:
 
I'm in Preston. We have regular local meets and drives, although they dwindle down in the winter months - you should pop along next time.

Sounds good I'll be sure to keep my eye out for future dates.

Somewhat managed to resolve the cup holder situation. I managed to take the unit out and take it apart and then some bits fell out and I tried to put it back together again to no avail. Although I managed to get the cup holder back into the slot it no longer functions properly, however, I can at least slide it back out so when I get round to replacing it there should be no problem.
