All fixed. £1.20 and a lot of hassle saved. Thanks for the helpful advice!

Thanks for comment. I thought it would be something trivial. Local Audi said they’d need to book car in for 2 days to take a look - based on description of issue. And CG, having already taken a look, did not offer up a simple solution... There’s no damage and the black housing on the cable where the clip fits is intact (and the cable runs smoothly). So just a clip in as you say...couldn’t find one on the internet so I guess I’ll stop by Audi before the appointment to see if they have one...

Thanks Steve - I'll probably follow your advice and trek down there as some point soon ...

Hi all - just got a 2015 A6 Avant SE and I'm very happy about that! One issue, which I knew when I bought it, is it seems to be missing a 'clip' on the left hand side (picture shows what's there on the right hand). The parcel shelf doesn't work properly and generally falls off the track when the tailgate closes. Seems to be a specific issue and I'm hoping this forum can help answer the following questions (1) anyone experienced this (2) is is possible to just pull out the clip or would it likely cause damage (3) would Audi just provide a replacement clip or would I have to leave it in. The seller (Cargiant) will take it back to fix but I'd like to avoid the hassle of going back there and leaving the car in. Any help would be gratefully received. Thanks in advance and happy driving.
