Re: Help! Rear wheel humming noise. Polo GTi

Yeah and here's the sound from mine: https://youtu.be/w4Az_gVdnnU

It got progressively worse in the months following on from that video (recorded around August time and I had the pads and discs replaced around 3 months later in November).

Sadly the noise has started to come back, but nowhere near ...

Re: Help! Rear wheel humming noise. Polo GTi

Sad to say that just 2 months after replacing the pads and disks, the mooing noise has started to come back on my car...

My car was due for a service today, so I mentioned it to a technician at the dealership whilst I was there, and they're aware of the issue and said that she'd dealt with 2 cars ...

Re: Help! Rear wheel humming noise. Polo GTi

I've got a GTI+ and annoyingly my car had the same issue as the standard GTI's, but I do agree and think it is an issue exclusive to the GTI/GTI+ range.

I replaced the brake pads and discs around 5 weeks ago, and as yet, no noise whatsoever. Little bit disheartening to see that most people's noise ...

Re: Help! Rear wheel humming noise. Polo GTi

So I’ve had my brake pads and discs replaced today and there’s a very very slight noise (not sure if that’s just the new brakes setting in), but there’s no mooing/humming noise like what was happening before.

So short term it’s looking better, but I’ll keep you posted on the next few weeks.

Re: Help! Rear wheel humming noise. Polo GTi


@Dannn_14; be aware that it might not fix it. As @monkeyhanger has said, it’s not unique to the Polo or VW; other VW models and other manufacturers vehicles are known to exhibit this ‘characteristic’.

It is disappointing though that customers seem to have to ‘jump through hoops and over hurdles ...

Re: Help! Rear wheel humming noise. Polo GTi

So a bit of an update on my situation...

After visiting and being told twice by the dealership that nothing could be done about the noise and that it was just a ‘characteristic of the car’ (despite them test driving the car for 48 hours and admitting that they were able to replicate the noise), I ...

Re: Help! Rear wheel humming noise. Polo GTi

Hi guys,

I’ve got the same problem with my GTI+ that I picked up brand new earlier this year: https://youtu.be/w4Az_gVdnnU

I’ve been to the garage, they’ve applied the software update, but still no fix. They’re refusing to replace the brake pads/discs because they’ve been told by VW UK ‘it won’t ...
