Technical Engine undertray hanging loose on one side

[jojida]

Hi all

This morning I have noticed that the left hand side of the engine undertray has come nearly completely off and so is making an awful scraping sound as I drive. I have a 500 lounge 1.4 with a 60 plate.

Is it detrimental if this were to sheer off on that side? Have a big trip tomorrow morning and so don’t want chaos on the motorway if it decides it wants to come off!

I definitely wouldn't be making a long trip without something to secure it even if only only tie wraps

Well my dad lost part of his a few years ago, it took out one of the brake pipes in the process

Looks as though we’ll be tying them up for the journey home tomorrow until we can get to the garage then! Thanks everyone.
