So as some of you may remember, Ive just got a dsg polo, I've always had a manual before.
My question is. In my manual I could brop the handbrake and roll the car, its been so long, I can not think how to do it with the auto, with the car turned off. When I tried to move the lever, it would not ...

Thanks for reply. Hoping to test the DSG next week. Anyone got experience of problems with the1.0 DSG? Seems to be pretty reliable from what I've read.

Hi there,

I am looking to upgrade from my 2016 1.2 Tsi to a MK11 and don't know if to go for the 1.0 Rline 95ps manual or the 110ps Dsg.

Can anyone give advice or pros and cons on ownership of either. I was initially looking at the manual but now considering the Dsg as well.

Does the 5 speed ...

That last posting I made is slightly wrong, I've just worked that out after posting, anyway, the shims do not get fitted to the calliper, they get fitted to the calliper carrier bracket - so I will not have to check my wife's rear RHS brake!


Nice one thank you RUM4MO. Still waiting for the ...

Thank you for this amer6R it's most helpful

Anyone know if there is a kit to stop pads rattling? Or is it a case of changing the pads?

Think I've found it.

I believe it is the brakes rattling. When driving and hearing the rattle if I rest my left foot on the brake pedal I can feel vibration. If I press slightly the vibration and rattling stops.

Brake discs and pads were changed 6 weeks ago!

Hopefully this can be fixed easily.

This annoying rattling is difficult to find. It's been to the garage and been up in the air and they can't find anything.
They say they have checked everything but cannot see anything wrong.
It makes me feel more assured that it is nothing serious but just annoying.
It sounds like a popping noise ...

only wrong side if someone coming the other way

Absolutely doing my swede in now this rattling knocking noise.
It's been at the garage today up on the ramps and they can not find the issue. They can only replicate the noise when driving but not when stationary. They say they have checked everything and all seems to be OK.
It's very noticeable ...

Unfortunately no luck I'm afraid. Will keep exploring!!!

Thank you guys. Will check those tomorrow and report back. Will try recording as well.
Cheers

Hi all.

Got a really annoying rattle under the floor or behind dash.
It's really hard to tell where it's coming from but sure it's from one of those areas. It's really noticeable when driving say 20-30 mph on a quiet road. It doesn't even need to be on a bad surface or bumps to hear the rattling ...

Cheers for that

Was it CR2032 that you used? Nothing listed in my manual. Just says take to a dealership haha.

I tried CR2016 duracell as that was what was in I think and they didn't work. Tried a CR2032 duracell and it seems to be too thick and bounces out.

I tried a no brand CR2016 and that is working fine ...
