center console hard as heck to open

My center console storage bin lids are super hard to open. I am supposed to just pull up to open, right? They are so tight that I was thinking that I was doing it wrong and that they were maybe a "press to click open" deal or something like that. I have to give them a serious yank to open.... I feel like I'm gonna break the tabs if this keeps up.

Ha, seriously. Thanks, I thought it was something like that but didn't see any buttons. Now if I can just figure out how to start the car ... Lol.

I suggest you read your owners manual before you get back in the car.

DUDE. You're killing me.

There are actually TWO buttons for the center console, one on each side...kind of near where the bolsters are.

Hopefully you didn't break a tab or something. Man, some of you folks need to learn to read the owner's manual on things you buy.

I second the motion.

I couldn't find the hood release, so I used a crowbar.

sheesh tough crowd

You should have seen me the other day when it took me 3 minutes to close the trunk.

I close it, it pops open..I close it, it pops open.. 3 minutes later and me giving up i had a AHA moment.. wait.. what if this was by design.. yup.. low and behold I had a spare key in my bag that was in the trunk.

Trunk wont close with a key in it... i know the feeling..

enjoy the car.. there are lots more goodies just waiting to be explored

It's alright, man. Seriously read the manual and this thread - https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...thread-24.html.

Between those two, ALL of your future questions should be answered.

I bet you were indeed hoping this thread would find its way back into the closet but once you are dubbed the notorious MINIMUS...it's just down hill from there...

Mate....those "buttons" are not easily seen, if you don't know where they are....I've had problems myself when we first got the car....only difference with me was that I didn't try to "force" anything......Wifey showed me!
So, NO WORRIES....enjoy.
Cheers, Pickles.
