Golf R - Part dropped off when accelerating

[adekil]

Hi all,

Does anyone know what this is used for?

When i accelerated from a standstill, this just popped off from somewhere under the steering column?

Just wondering if its worth taking to a VW garage if its important.

TIA

isn't that what thet put on for shipping and remove before selling?

Took it into a nearby VW garage and no one had seen it before or heard of anything just falling off!

As its under warranty still they need to book it in next week to go through formalities and wouldn't just plonk it back into wherever it fell off.

They found the part which is number 22 in the image below. (securing ring)

That's not good on ur clutch pedal..... least its not the brake pedal though 
Good luck getting it sorted

yeah hopefully it will be fine to drive for the next week before it goes in to the garage.
