Yeah design flaw. I wedge a thick key ring (about 15mm) in and it’s perfect.

So I had a saga a couple of months ago which involved them replacing the top mounts which reduced a creaking/squeaking noise but did not eliminate. In the end they took all the front components apart and greased them, problem solved. Been nice and quiet since.

Yes go to dealer. Prepare to prove it was there at delivery.

New pads made no difference, although doesn't seem to "clunk" in reverse now, maybe once they bed in it will return. I noticed this "groan/creek" goes away after a couple hours driving, so I reckon it's maybe a joint dried out or a hinge that once it's moved enough it loosens up, any other ...

Hi, noticed a problem that seems to have become more noticeable in the recent week.

When I turn at low speed (half lock or more, either direction), I can hear a rubbing noise that sounds like it's coming from both wheels.
Anyone else experienced this ?

Just decoding whether it is a ...

So after 4 visits it’s cured.

When I asked what had been done they said “lubed all bushes and joints”.

Now to get the dash creaking sorted

Just wondered if anyone else had experienced a thumping hard DSG gear change after easing off the throttle during a bout of acceleration?

At a busy roundabout on my commute this morning, I saw a gap and took it, pressing hard on the accelerator to get away and then immediately coming off the ...

Have you done this? Based off the site I’m interested in this for my GTI+ but would want to understand install cost and the end sound.

Over the last 3 days or so I've also noticed a rattle/vibration in the handbrake area but found it to be the passenger seat belt receptacle (RHD vehicle.) I might just try that micro-fibre cloth trick I read here earlier to see if that resolve the noise.

I have the exact issue. i have ...

Hi All,

Since picking up my brand new Polo R-Line I'm finding various issues with the steering, its been back to the dealer twice and I'm not getting anywhere!

1. The steering seems to not be straight, I'm always having to turn the wheel slightly right to stay straight. If I let go of the wheel ...

Andy, it’s back after a day

This squeaky noise will be the end of me.

I have the exact same problem in my GTI+. Its on the third visit now (i actually had another problem that was a super annoying squeek related to a failed suspension mount). They went through the exact same things that you mentioned.

They've given up now saying its "normal", so im going to go to a ...

Funnily enough that was my initial thought during the first visit, but they disregarded due to mileage (<5k). I'll be insisting they look this time round!


Mileage is a daft reason for them to dismiss it.
Our Captur and Juke (same suspension) both needed front bushes under 10000 miles, it's a ...

I Have identified the noise


My friend has a 2017 Golf GTi he has a similar sound. He suspects it the shock absorbers too.

I can agree as I recall after being the road for hours. The noise was loud, so it be related to the shock being Warmish hot. Sounds like it has no lubrication or ...
