Re: Polo gti advice needed

Of these two colours, I would definitely say kings red. My car is in this colour and I believe it complements the red accents all over the car a lot better than the blue. However, I would highly recommend considering what SRGTD has mentioned, since the colour does show swirl marks (mine is 7 months ...

Creaking Steering (AE Polo GTI) with Video

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has any idea what could be causing this sound + if it is worth taking it to the dealer to assess further. So far, I have brought this up at the 1st service and the dealer did not seem to know what could be the cause (granted they got around to it at the end of the day a...

Re: Creaking steering

Hi, do you have any further updates on this? I am experiencing a similar effect - at times it is just like a relay sound (very sporadic) and at other times it creaks. The sound is only heard when turning the wheel (even slightly) at parking speeds or at standstill. It is not too loud - can’t be hear...

Re: sounds like a relay click when turning sometimes :)

Hi, I live down in Australia and my AE model polo gti (2022) is also doing this. It only happens at parking speeds (< 20kmh) and often the sound comes even with just a slight turn of the wheel. I mentioned this to the dealer but they just “adjusted the trim” which did nothing. Cannot hear the sound ...
