Looks like the bracket has been changed by Powerflow for rubber mount with a threaded insert.
Just looked at Etka and i dont have a bracket as per the diagram.
Looks like i have to take the back box off and hold the nut (if it is still there) and screw the mount back in.
What a pain in the ar@e :angry:
I have got one of the Vag brackets in the golf box so i will have a look at what i can do tmrw, gonna take some pics now :wink:
