Found it ripped half stuck under some cables:





Anyone knows what it is??

That looks like a bundled cat!

What on earth is it. Have you opened the bag completely ?

It's got some sort of sponge in the inside

Go to your local VW. You might have won a prize. Some sort of secret treasure or something haha

it's the same stuff they make the GTI gearbox bearings from

Its sound insulation. The car is full of that stuff, especially the rear quarters!

It's used to wrap round the fuel pipes near the bulkhead where they then go through under the car. I think it's to stop the pipes vibrating. First time I saw mine I wondered what on earth it was and started ripping it out till I saw 'VW' written on it!
