  • Spilt about 200 ml of coffee into cup holder (where did it go?)

    My other half spilt her coffee into the cup holder, and hubris time she noticed her cup was almost empty. So was the cup holder - it drained downwards. Where dud it go, what damage will it cause and how can I fix it?

    This is a MY08 Jetta that I bought yesterday

        Ouch - was it black or white coffee? (you will know in a week or two how vital it is to clean out...)
        Have a look for threads on how to remove the centre console - there are electrics under there that may need to be dried out!
        Tip as well - the little divider in the cup holder / or bottle opener in the bottom - slides back and forward to secure small or large cups.
        Door cupholders are more bottle holders.
        Al..

          I did this also with a can of coke in a rental jetta - went to clean it up the next morning and it was gone!

            Take everything out of the cup holders and remove the two rubber linings on the base, you will then find your black hole
