Default front arm rests

Anyone have issues with the arm rest? I have different levels of resistance between the driver and passenger side and the drivers side is sprung about 2-3inches from the closed position. levels off when I rest on it...

When it first started getting weird a I asked the dealer and they quoted me $1100 for a new one. They also said that there is no adjustments..when it wears out buy a new one or live with it.

I got one of the chrome access caps off today and see the threads just wasn't able to make it better though. Looks very adjustable to me.

found a few for sale:
"AUDI A8 D4 FACTORY OEM BLACK LEATHER DUAL SPLIT ARM REST 4H0864206C22A"

just need help with the disassembly for the install

is your car not CPO? Mine is and I had a similar issue and Audi put a whole new set in for free, both sides even though one had a problem. Also got a new steering wheel since I didn't think it was heating up properly. Turns out (a) got a new $1500 wheel for free and (b) Audi steering wheels suck at heating up - no difference with the new wheel.

You can code the steering wheel heat temp with VCDS. Dealer I would think could adjust as well.
