Welcome @Robsta71. I’m not sure if there’s a shortage of engine covers; you are correct that your car doesn’t have an engine cover as it has been identified as a potential fire hazard - that’s assuming it’s the same generic cover that’s used in the VW Golf GTI and R models. A new version of the cover that’s fit for purpose is to be designed and supplied in due course.
With the mk8 Golf GTI and R models it was discovered that the engine cover may work loose and touch parts of the engine when it’s hot, with the risk of it causing a fire. With the Golf, dealers are removing the engine cover of any affected vehicle if / when it’s next at the dealership. I believe that for all other affected vehicles not visiting dealerships, owners are being asked to remove the cover themselves.
Hi everyone, next week I’m going to pickup my CUPRA FORMENTOR..
I hope to find here some help from You for the further answer who I will do.
Sorry for my “MACCARONI” English.
