Undertray fixing rubber washers?

[VAG fool]

Anyone got a UK source for these? They should be pennies, not pounds!

washers on the undertray?

Yep they help to suppress excess vibrations.

Rubber washers that retain the quick-release fixings

I chucked away the quick release along the leading edge of the tray and replaced them with torx bolts. Have seen the aftermath of them not being secured by a mechanic in the past.

quick release? mine was never supplied with these. Ah well. 4,8x22 screws only.

Happened to me in my S2 as we passed 145mph!

You should have seen the look on the face of the mechanic who had failed to secure the front edge properly 10 minutes before he hopped in to the passenger seat for a max speed run up Bruntingthorpe airfield - it was a poetic mixture of fear and embarrassment.

I only go to one local garage and then only for specialist services such as wheel alignment or cambelt (the latter I may well do myself as the fleet will soon be all petrol)
