Clunking Noise
Has anyone else had a problem with a Clunking noise when reversing, I have the new Polo R-line 1.0 95 had the same problem with the new seat Ibiza that I had last year also, possibly wheel bearing? Thanks in advance

Yup, it's to do with the brakes. I would link a topic but I don't know how [emoji23].Rhys_13 wrote:Has anyone else had a problem with a Clunking noise when reversing, I have the new Polo R-line 1.0 95 had the same problem with the new seat Ibiza that I had last year also, possibly wheel bearing?

If you search for 'clunk' another topic should come up. Basically VW say it's fine.

Re: Clunking Noise
Mine doesn’t clunk. Does that mean it’s faulty?

Re: Clunking Noise
Quite often a noise like this can just be the pads moving rearwards in the caliper.

Re: Clunking Noise
Yes mine does this - when applying the brakes in reverse. When it was new it was really loud but now after 7000 miles it is almost gone - thankfully!
