Excelent tutorial ! I´m facing the same problem here, and I up to now I didn´t know why the armrest became stucked up. Now, my challenge is to find the replacement part here in Brazil!
Hello man ıts been a while since you have posted this but still I have an issue, armrest stucked in upwards position. The repair that you make for same issu?
Yes of course. Replace them all and change the broken part. You get the replacement part from Audi. The number you need ist 8L0-898-173, also you find the number on 0:00, but... Blue: 8L0 898 173 3ZQ Jive (grewbeige): 8L0 898 173 42R Soul (black): 8L0 898 173 6PS

Hi Tobske93.... danke für dein Video. es ist wirkl soweit hilfreich. Leider kann ich aber bei meinem Auto nicht erkennen (total zu geklebt! ), um welche Sorte Schrauben es sich handelt (4 Stück), die sich im Fachinnenraum befinden. Kannst du mir da behilflich sein und sagen ob es sich um Kreuz, Torx oder sonstiges handelt. Vorab Danke Gruß M

The “hidden” screws inside the armrest which hold the release catch that needs to be replaced are T8 Torx screws. It’s a lot easier when you know 😀
T7 used here
Best comment ever 😄 T8 worked fine

It looks trivial but it's a much needed instruction. Thank You!

Hi, any ideas why I can't pull up the armrest after loosening that big screw behind ashtray?
Tnx!
