Found this in the 'well' which takes the bonnet hinge. Black plastic, very light, cannot see anything obvious that it has come off. Obviously not critical to the smooth running of the GS but.......... would be very impressed if someone can identify what it is!

It's fallen off your wiper arm. There's another part to it that hooks behind the wiper blade deflector. It's not uncommon for them to fall off.

Sorry, I should get out more!

I though wiper arm too, maybe it fell through the pollen filter and into the cabin some how?

I've just replaced mine (£5 from an alfa dealer - it's the same part) - it's a stability arm for the drivers-side wiper. Without it the blade get's a little loose and flops about, especially at motorway speeds.

Mine broke in exactly the same place as emtree's - I guess they get brittle over time an UV exposure.

When fitted the arm points down between the wiper and the wind deflector thingy ;o)
