That's definitely it, and it is definitely shown UNDER the strut mount.

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.

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
