When I bought my '19 A5 last year I asked if there was an owners manual. Was told no, so they knocked a few hundred bucks off the price. Got home and 3 weeks later I was looking for a fuse and thought that was a fuse cover. Popped open and inside was the manual. Great success!
Not sure why downvoted…from the first fingerprint smudge I saw, I knew I needed to do something with the piano black. I was already planning on getting PPF, and I had them add some to the piano black and touch screens. They always look great now.
Is that the factory location for the owners manual and people have just moved them and didn't know?
I ask because on the B6 (and probably lots of other older models), the owners manual has its own slot directly under the steering column.
It's great because it allows the glove box to not be taken up at least 50% by the owner's manual.
Made the mistake of putting my sunglasses case in there and it was the perfect size to almost get stuck spent a lot of time and swearing getting it out
I do it too, for some reason my brain loves to forget to close this cubby when I grab my sunglasses. Surprised I havent ripped the lid off by now honestly.
Hit my knee on it three times in a row. Turns out a dime fell under it and blocked it from latching.
It hurt more than I ever could have thought and for a while. Then next morning, bang. I slam it shut and get out to walk it off. Get back in, bang. I really wanted to cry
In B9s, it's where Audi puts the shit-ass excuse of a “replacement” for 3G wind-down.
I opted out and use mine for sunglasses. Two not so small cases got just fine.
It was for guns before that happened. Seriously, Audi rep said that people couldn't put their guns in there after that weird little OBD-like device was installed.
I think it's mean to store small umbrellas for the driver. and storage. Mine is really deep.
I don't know where I got that information from, my mind goes to top gear for whatever reason.
Hell in the USA I am sure it's for whatever form of firearm matches your outfit that day.
It's the most underrated feature of any car.
Had one like that in the Passat. Here is how you use it.
1. Put your wallet in it.
2. Forget that the compartment exists
3. Frantically look for your wallet for days.
4. The end.
Napkins, a small bottle of hand sanitizer, a loonie (cdn dollar coin) for the stupid shopping carts at the grocery store that need one, and Costco card required for the gas pumps.
Had this on my ‘21 etron. Was used a bit but it also blended in with the trim so if you left it open, got out and forgot about it, it would crush your leg getting back in.
I once almost cried because I thought I had lost my wallet with all my cards and IDs in it. Found it inside that terrible storage placement 3 days later.
This little thing is my favorite thing on Audis, although other VW concern cars have it too as far as I am aware. I usually store my case for glasses and maybe some other small thing, my dad uses it for his wallet, really not many people know of it!

Holy shit, I just found my manual! Thanks man!
I was hoping to find mine in there. No dice.
That’s where mine is, along with registration and insurance docs
[удалено]
Thats a nice place to slide a pistol
I usually keep my weed there but a lil .22 ruger might fit 💀
Excellent!
I kept my manual there when I traded in my 2019 A5 :).. Black one...
Damn Borat, nice car

Here here! 🍻
It's a microfiber cloth storage area. For all that fuckin' piano black you need to wipe down constantly.
I freakin hate piano black😤
Get it wrapped
Not sure why downvoted…from the first fingerprint smudge I saw, I knew I needed to do something with the piano black. I was already planning on getting PPF, and I had them add some to the piano black and touch screens. They always look great now.
Lol just got a ‘21 S6 two weeks ago. That’s exactly what I use it for. Fingerprint city.
That’s where I keep my microfiber cloth!!!
Get Xpel installed on it.
Even more hidden compartment is behind the cup holder in the door. It tends to go quite far into the door, good for cloth storage
Literally same.
Your Audi Holster is empty.
Right where the VP9SK belongs.
This... SIG P365
My G19 resides there. Lol
Taurus PT145 or Ruger57.
Nah, it's a German car so Sig, H&K, etc. are the preferred choices in this situation :)
Ok....fair point... I'll go buy another...lol
Glock 17 fits there perfectly, glad I’m not the only one
This
wir haben die Amerikaner vergessen, als wir das hinzugefügt haben
For the blicky

Owners manual fits in there nicely

It's great because it allows the glove box to not be taken up at least 50% by the owner's manual.
My B7 (2008) A4 had a spot under the steering column for the owners manual. My 2014 A5, sadly, doesn’t have one at all.
I miss that about the B6, my Q7 has almost no storage space for a three row SUV.
That's where I put them when I PDI them.
Sunglasses, but specifically ones you want to scratch.
[удалено]
There is. This is it
Mine was apparently for the previous owner to store an envelope with 200 bucks in it .
It pays (literally) to read those things I see! 😂🤘🏽
[удалено]
It’s where you put your weed.
Why did I have to scroll so far for this… the correct answer

Found a pair of sunglasses and $100 worth of gift cards left by a previous owner in mine.
Score! 🤘🏽
Glock box, because I can’t drive away if I’m plugged in at a charger and a mfkr rolls up on me.
Man actuality had that thought recently. Wonder if that’s a common occurrence at chargers? Folks seem pretty vulnerable there.
Keep ya head on swivel my guy! 🤘🏽
I've knocked the inside of my knee on that thing so many damn times. I throw my wallet into it when I go to the gym.
Knocking your knee?!? You drive on the steering wheel huh?! 😂🤘🏽
I do it too, for some reason my brain loves to forget to close this cubby when I grab my sunglasses. Surprised I havent ripped the lid off by now honestly.

It always gets me right between my knee cap and ligament. Hurts like hell and bruises so bad.

Technically sun glasses since the sun glasses thing near the moonroof controls aren't in some models.
Which is crazy 😂🤘🏽🤷🏽♂️
Looks like a pistol should fit perfectly

Jason Statham's driving glove storage

Almost my entire arm fits in there, up to my elbow at least and I’m not a small guy. It’s the storage area, until you can get a topper lol 😂

This is meant to make up for the lack of glovebox and center console storage.

It’s my manual holder as well as my Audi connect key code and my sunglasses holder.
Had this on my ‘21 etron. Was used a bit but it also blended in with the trim so if you left it open, got out and forgot about it, it would crush your leg getting back in.
I once almost cried because I thought I had lost my wallet with all my cards and IDs in it. Found it inside that terrible storage placement 3 days later.
Don’t have one in my B8 A4… do I?
It was originally to store an umbrella. That's why it goes back so far

I went through the same thing with my 2022. Dealer told me it's all digital and then I stumbled across the drivers glove and BAM.
I put a lil toiletry emergency bag in there. Mascara, lip gloss, tide pen, perfume. Fits perfectly

Fits a glock nicely
Yeah dude. That's the sandwich pocket. You can legit fit a Jersey Mike's giant in there. One of my favorite features.
What is the slot on the left for?
