Hey everone!

Just a tiny thing, but a little annoying. I just bought 520i 2004 and ashtray in it is in "open" position. When pressed even more into "open" postion, goes back to the stopper but wont close itself. I would like to take it out to see what's the problem, but don't want to start ripping it out without some sorta manual. Anyone ever had same problem? Or by any chance have a manual, how to take ashtray out step-by-step?

Thank you,
Ramunas.

Push down firmly and pull towards yourself. Have this problem right now and that's how I cure it.
