I do not know. But before clutch replacement I have noticed this, when I was starting to move, because the clutch grab point was not linear. It was creating really annoying knocking sound because of this. And so I have immediatelly put a screw that holds it nice and tight. I was quite shocked when other A2 owner told me, that this is the same on his car. Because this is really not normal. But there should be a reason why this was designed like that.Hi MTL, do you think it will cause any issues being able to move ... would it be designed this way to allow expansion across the width??
So now I will probably remove it or maybe first check through 7zap if there is some kind of holder missing. I really do hope that not all A2s have this flaw due to one assembly worker taking parts home ...
Many colleagues tell me that I am to precise and I should not bother with little things. But they really do annoy me...but an interesting observation by MTL nevertheless
