No significant progress today as I have a migraine
 Botang's grommet fitted fine. Its probably watertight on its own, but I've covered it in seam sealer anyway. This is not the car on which to experiment with water ingress! New foam on the hvac inlet Hopefully I can put the engine back in tomorrow.

Very true ^
 I put the engine back in this morning The A4 links arrived - top, compared to the D2 on the bottom. You can see the extra spacer they have and they fit perfectly Part numbers are 8D0411317D and 8D0411318D (they are handed)Starter terminal box. I've taken to filling these with waxoyl as its waterproof but not as nasty as the thick grease the factory used. Put the washer bottle back in and tested for leaks. Of course it did leak, from the level sensing grommet on the windscreen washer pump, which they always do when disturbed, hence testing. I can not get this one to re-seal so I'll print a new grommet. Mostly back together. Suspension and front panel tomorrow.

 Is that expansion tank super cleaned like the screen wash reservoir? I have noticed in a few other posts the coolant is pink? I am beginning to think the garage that changed my water pump, which I supplied with the requisite amount of G12 coolant a few years back, didn't put the G12 in. The coolant is 'clear-ish' but starting to turn the tank brownish from the inside
