Thin Piece of metal in oil pan screen Please help identify
My check light has come on on my 2002 quatro a6 3.0 and the engine sometimes will shutt off while in idle. I figured I had a problem with my Crankshaft Position Sensor so I placed a order for one since the car after shutting off is hard to start. The shipment of my part was delayed so I decided to do a gunk flush and removed the oil pan and found that my a6 had given me a present for xmas. The piece is rather thin and can be bent by hand. This piece is all alone without any other metal shavings of any sort. Thinking it could be a tensioner of some sort but im not sure. Wanted to post this and check before pulling the valve cover where I have a bit of noise.
