I believe it is referred to as the "retainer" in ETKA and is absolutely
critical. PN 4A0412339. You are fortunate that your hood did not get
dimpled from beneath.

Subject: [s-cars] Blown strut mounts
Morning!
S6 avant with oem struts and s6+ springs.
Just replaced (with Meyle brand) the mounts, havent even gotten 1000
miles out of them. Both are blown. The roads are rough around here,
but not THAT bad!
First question: do these springs require oem mounts?
What I removed, that presumably lasted for awhile; have p/n 4A0 412
383C? (Hard to read the last letter.)
FA Has 4A0 412 377C. Did I have a euro mount that I need to source?
Any BTDT?
2nd, I don't have anything between the upper strut shaft and the
bottom of the mount. FA doesn't show anything either unless I'm not
seeing it correctly.
What is the elusive washer that i read about that sometimes gets
forgotten?
I have the dished washer and nut to secure the top of the strut.
TIA for any help.
Matt
