Angry Audi A4 Dipstick Funnel

I just wanted to express my frustration on a car so well built, and yet they put a plastic oil dipstick funnel in the center of the motor where it can be the hottest part of the car. A part that can also become so brittle that it can and sometimes will fall inside the engine when it falls apart and or breaks. What the hell is up with that. Its a ridiculous and flawed idea and part.

It almost happen to me before. Luckily I found out before it falls inside the engine and replaced it immediately.
