The Holy Grail

Jimmy Hoffa's remains

Al Capone's missing million$$

Audi's regard for their US customers

The answer to "Why"

So this is where the jack parts go. Jack on the left (tight fit), bag on the right.

You got us excited for no reason, as the jack storage problem is exclusive to the 2019 S5.

I guess it makes a difference between the coupe(which is what I have) and the sportback.

Problem area? I’m nervous about jack rubbing those wires to the left side of compartment.

Same here with my 2019 S5 Prestige Sportback and the tire jack in a separate pouch. Could not figure out how to store the jack. Currently not stowed in the car...

I have a 2019 RS5 coupe and I actually don't have that plastic piece. It's just an empty space for me. It's big enough for the jack but I'm nervous about the jack rubbing against the wires on the left too which is why I left it hooked to the tie downs in the cargo area.
