Common issue on the mk7.  Caused by the light rattling against the mirror housing when the visor is in the folded up position.  I believe VW have a fix for it, fitting a clip, which resolves it. Or you could have a diy go at sticking some foam in.

I had this and took it back to dealer who replaced the visor under warranty. Was annoying as hell.

Not been a problem since.  :wink:
