The other day when opening the glove box to get my ipod out the door to the box simply dropped down rather than the normal slowish descent it used to have when opening. When I closed the glovebox I found a small white plastic gear/ cog in the footwell.

I assume that the gear must have come off its mounting and is what is suppose to give the resistance to the glovebox opening but having felt around I cannot find anywhere that it seems to have come from. Of cause the gear could be nothing to do with anything and its just coincidence that it was there.

Any ideas how to get to the mechanism that gives the resistance to the glovebox door dropping down?
