Re: Annoying Rattle/Knocking

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.

Re: Annoying Rattle/Knocking

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 wh...

Re: Annoying Rattle/Knocking

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 at ...

Annoying Rattle/Knocking

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. Bu...

Re: Key Batt Message

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. 2016 ...

Re: Weird brake feeling

Could it be a sticking caliper? Garage say it will need to go on a rolling road to diagnose it

Re: Weird brake feeling

Hi amer6R Wouldn't they affect the car when driving all the time though? It's only under breaking that I feel it. Especially at low speeds when you are nearly at a stop its most noticeable. The only feeling or vibration or pulsing is through the pedal. From what I am reading I am guessing it's the d...

Weird brake feeling

Hello, just looking for some info on a strange brake feeling. When braking I can feel in the pedal a sensation like the car is braking uneven. From what I have read it could be a warped disc? The backstory is in mid Nov the car was serviced/Mot at an Indy VW near me. New front discs and pads were fi...

Re: Slight Shiver on Tickover

Sorted. New set of spark plugs has solved the problem. No more shivering.
Thanks for advice and recommendations.

Re: Slight Shiver on Tickover

Can see both points of view CarbonChaos and both have valid points. However I trust the garage and have used them for many years. They always just do what needs doing and will tell me when they need to change the brake fluid and cambelt etc. The front brakes were done this time for 1st time at 55k I...
