Default Cigarette Lighter

Is the cigarette lighter supposed to swivel up when the ashtray is pulled out? Mine just stays down and it's hard to pull out since I have to "swing" up the lighter holder w/ one hand and pull out the actual lighter w/ the other hand. TIA.

Yes, it always has.

What MY Cayenne? IIRC, they haven't changed this with the facelift.....

Either way, simple fix for the dealer (assuming you're not "naked"); if you are "naked", simple call to Sunset Imports for a new part at cost + 15%

I have a MY 2006 Cayenne and I have the same problem. Can someone confirm that this is supposed to swing up under on it's own versus being "lifted" up.

Appears to be confirmed to me. Sounds like we have to get a new ashtray.

If used to set the Cayenne ablaze, followed by a S'Mores roast....nothing.

Anyone know how to remove the ashtray assembly so I can fix my lighter from not popping up?
Also the center overhead light switch doesn't work either. Suggestions to how to remove the plastic cover without breaking it?
