I just got my car back from the dealer and they had to open the dash up for some things.

Anyway I got into the car and had to hit the rear defroster. When I did this, the whole climatronic thing moved into the dash a bit and then moved back out after I released pressure.

They took it back in and said "We fixed it so it doesn't move as much, but it still moves a little"

So now when I press in the right edge of the climatronic it still moves in a bit and it bugs me.

Is this normal?

TIA!

there are 4 clips that hold it in place. it will move a little. not too much but it will move if you push a corner. mine does. i dont push the corners. i push the buttons.

Normally I do too, except I was sketchy after I got in my car and pressed the button and it moved in.

I'll chalk it up to "Used to happen before but never noticed it"

Thanks,
Bill

lol, i drive mine alot and love it. though my car's in the shop getting some more goodies put on so i wont be able to drive it for two days.

i hate that....when your car is in the shop, so you just can't drive it. when i got my first service done and a little knick in my paint fixed from some *** who scratched my car in a parking lot and i couldn't drive it for a day and a half, i was driving a mercury grand marquis

just know i was running back to my car when it was ready haha.

when my car was in the body shop after that b***h hit me, i would go down everyday after work to check the progress. now its in for a mod, which i most likely will go and see how its coming along after work.

Citron's is not a factory install, I'm not sure if Hitman's is factory or not. I do know the non-climatron unit doesn't move.

my clima-knobby moved a little too. my climatronic doesnt move alot, but it moves, a little. its not solid in there, i mean push yours (knobby or tronic, i dont care) it moves a little. "i mean a little". they are only held in by four plastic clips. it doesnt move when i hit buttons but if i touch the corners or the edges it moves, very little. movement is movement, and my clima-knobby moved just as little as my new one!

and whether it factory or not, its still a W203 part (regardless of coupe or sedan), which fits just as good as factory.
