Hi Po10HEB,

Did you solve your issue? I'm experiencing a similar noise.

Many thanks,

Matt

Hi Graham, Thanks for your response. I've taken my car to the dealer (currently in there) and they've taken all of the rear wheel trim out etc. and cant seem to pinpoint the noise. they say the shock is visibly fine. Was your shock visibly fine and you just gambled changing it and then you were luck...

Hi All, Having a bit of a weird issue with my 2016 Polo GTI 5 door at the moment. I've noticed that when I'm driving there's a weird clicking noise coming from the rear drivers side boot area, more specifically above the wheel area in the boot. This is a short video of the clicking noise: https://1d...

Would there be any reason why the tick disappears when the A/C is turned on? Also could this tick indicate the start of a bigger problem with the fuel pump or reckon it could just be ignored for now? I don't feel like spending £3-400 on a new pump if its fine but just gotten a bit noisy! Are there a...

Thanks for that wolfie! I have not had a VW before this one (3 years old now) so have not had any previous experience with them. The dealership said that the goodwill got rejected but I am able to open a case with VW directly which is what i've done. Did you change the fuel filter? If so is there an...

Let me know if you change the filter and it fixes the issue? I got a quote for a fuel filter and labour at just over £50 I have put a claim in with VW UK to try and get the fuel pump replaced as I am not paying £300-400 on the car. Been very disappointed with my polo in recent months, have had sever...

Unfortunately my warranty ran out at the end of March. VW will not change the fuel pump as good will either which I am disappointed about. Let me know if changing the fuel filter fixes the noise (assuming you are still planning on changing it). I am tempted to get it changed but feel it would be a w...

Took it into the dealers and spent some time with the master tech going through this (luckily for free mind you) He disconnected the fuel pump briefly and the noise stopped, reckons it might be a noisy pump...going to put in a claim of gesture of good will to VW uk, hopefully I will be lucky. Do fue...

Hi wolfie,

Did you get anywhere with this?

I took it to the dealers to have a quick look and they reckon it might be coming from the fuel pump (disconnected it and the noise stopped)... It could well be the filter though.

Let me know if you have anymore info

cheers,

Matt

Thanks for the info RUM4MO

Going to contact the dealer and see how I get on. Shame the car is just out of warranty though.

Did you have any luck finding out what it was? Mine is still making the noise, going to call the dealer and see if they can have a look at it. It sounds like its coming from the fuel filter area on my car just like yours. Here's a link to my onedrive where I have a video of the noise: https://1drv.m...

Hi all, Wondering if anyone could shed some light on what the strange ticking/vibrating noise is that is coming from near the fuel tank under my car. The noise started about 3 weeks ago from memory. The noise can be heard inside the back end of the car especially around the rear footwells/tunnel. I ...

Thanks for the reply brainbow very helpful :) The car certainly does look nice. The rear LEDs are very nice, just a shame the rear indicators aren't LEDs though but cant have everything can you! Also, i've heard on some reviews that the doors have quite brittle plastics on them and the door 'arm res...

How are you finding the 1.0 3 cylinder? Do you feel like 115hp is enough, especially on motorways/a-roads etc.? Is the engine noisey/thrummy at all? A few years I had a Peugeot 107 and then a Renault Clio both with 3 cylinder engines and found them quite loud compared to my 4 cylinder polo now. Glad...
