New owner: Strange brake noise and oil for 9n3 gti

Post by Jamie-9n3 »

Hey Guys,

Recently just bought a 9n3 gti, got a few questions.

When i seem to press the brake there is a clicking noise, which sounds almost like the indicator is on.

Is this just normal!? Or is there something up? It sounds as if its coming from just below the light switch, fusebox possibly?
Any ideas what it could be?

Another quick question, which oil is best for the car is it 5w30?



Thanks Jamie

i get the same clicking sound, i reckon its to do with the fuse for the rear lights.
