Gearbox/Clutch Issues

Post by Dougie_McClinton »

Hi,

Just picked up a 2015 Polo 1.8tsi GTi and so far love it. Great car to drive etc. It has 24k on the clock.

I have notice however, when in neutral and let out the clutch pedal, there is a very slight whirring noise from passenger footwell which disappears when I press the clutch in.any ideas? Is this normal?

Also, when letting clutch out as I'm going over a speed bump, I get a very quiet groaning noise, I can also get this on low gear changes and also when in 2nd going over a speed bump/rough road. Could this be an engine mount?

Does anyone have experience of clutch gearbox issues on this car? And do the noises above, do you think a visit to my local VW dealer is needed?

One last thing, when cold in the morning, the touchscreen doesn't work and sometime the whole infotainment system freezes, while still playing the radio etc. I see this is well documented on the net for the golfs etc and read something about a software update?

Any help and information would be much appreciated!

Thanks.
