A4 b8 - the bl00dy jack
Discussion
Anyone actually know how to get it out ?! I have an S4 avant but assume they are the same. I have found the jack, thats the first thing, but cant actually seem to get it out of the storage compartment.
It has catches either side but you cant physically depress them all to release it. I don't know if the whole unit is supposed to slide up and then you release it, there is lever under the right hand side but that does nothing.

OK... stupid question time. I just got a puncture, took out the spare wheel to get to the jack... Can I get the jack out? Can I fk!
Thought I was being really stupid, so got a neighbour over, who's a car mechanic... he can't get it out either. Is there a magic method I'm not getting, or is the stupid bit of plastic that holds it in place tighter than a duck's arse going to have to break to set it free?
TIA

Okay... just a quick update in case / when you get a puncture in your B8 S4 - the jack is wedged in by a piece of badly designed plastic... I got mine out with a crow bar and brute force. It does lift straight up - well it's supposed to. Mine didn't.
