Hello,

We have an IKEA LILLÅNGEN washbasin on our guest toilet as follows:

This needs to be moved because we are going to tile the wall. According to the manual, there should be 4 screws holding the cabinet to the wall, but there are only 2, and even though they are removed, it's stuck. Could they have glued the washbasin to the wall?

Here you can see the 2 screw holders.

No more screws can be found

There is no sealant visible in the gap between the wall and the sink

Is it possible to remove this without damaging the sink and wall/plaster?

Try to insert a knife or putty knife between the sink and the wall. It might be glued to the wall. The wall can be plastered before putting tiles, it's worse if the sink breaks, then you might have to buy a new vanity.
