Clunking noise that hasn't been located by mechanic!

Post by rhpologti2000 »

Hello,

I have recently started hearing a clunking noise at the front end in my Polo GTI (2016) which hasnt been located when i have taken it into the garage.

The noise first starts if ive harshly braked and come to a stop, then gets louder as i accelerate. The noise does slowly disappear when i push the brakes.

Has anyone has this issue before and know what the problem could be?

Thanks!

Best thing to do with noises is make a recording and post it up. Hearing it beats any description.
For all we know it could be your passenger having a fit on hard braking. :D
