    Good stuff, glad you got it solved... I basically was feeling around under the battery and popped a grommet which let the water drain so never saw the layout but was well glad to get rid of the water.

    Scuttle / Plenum drainage issues

    I think that is the same one as I removed, looking at it seems the right dimensions, but tbh i didn't even see it as I pushed it inwards and left it there.. I guess if the water drains then that is problem solved..... What is that dot in the middle.?

    Low oil level warning 2.0TDi

    I had the same car. Is it the orange/yellow oil warning light that is coming on? This is the low engine oil level warning and as the light is intermittent it may be a faulty sensor but I would get it quickly checked. There is also a red warning light which is the low engine oil pressure. If this...
