Re: Weird knocking noise......
Ok cheers. Have checked wheel bearings and cv joints seem fine too. I'll check the engine mounts then. Do i need to take it to a garage for that or can it be done easily?Thanks

Re: Knocking noise when hitting 80-90 mph???
It feels as if its more from the centre to the passenger side. Ive had the drive shafts checked for security etc though and they seem fine so i don't know what it could be. It will drive fine and then out of nowhere will just start shaking when its about 80-90 mph. Can't be right can it? Thanks

Re: Weird knocking noise......
I've got exactly the same problem with my polo. Its a w reg gti. Everytime i get over 80 mph it starts shaking the dash and sounds the same as what yours has got. I got the wheel alignment and the wheels balanced tday but its still got the same problem! Have you found out what it is???
