Golf mk7 / Re: Annoying, intermittent tapping noise from B pillar.
« Last post by Adam T7 on Today at 16:53 »I get it from the same location but it's the black plastic trim on the outside, between the front and rear side windows. Creaks and squeaks right by your ear definitely get on your nerves!
Popped home at lunchtime, moving seat belt didn’t work and the external trim seems secure. It’s actually worse when it’s dry and warm, so I’m thinking the seals (even though they were lubed but the outer seals on the rear edge of the drivers door seemed dry. I use wash and wax a lot and wax the car after every wash, I recall years back when I had a BMW that had a similar rattle that the BMW Regional Tech Manager told me wash and wax wasn’t great for rubber seals so maybe that’s the answer. I’ll get the Gummi Pfledge out again tonight and do a more thorough job.

Wise words. There’s always a bit of the unknown buying second hand unless you know the owner etc. Buying an insurance w/o or damaged pushes the risk further. Bite the bullet, you won’t regret it.

« Last post by Adam T7 on Today at 11:00 »With my previous VW, I had an annoying buzzing noise from the driver’s side adjustable seatbelt mount on the B pillar. I found moving it up or down a notch stopped the noise and it never returned.
Might be worth trying if you haven’t done so already?
I’ll give that a go👍

Golf mk7 / Annoying, intermittent tapping noise from B pillar.
« Last post by Adam T7 on Today at 08:09 »As the title says, worse on rougher road surfaces (lots of them around here). Not loud, but beginning to bug me. Appears to be from B pillar around the seat belt adjustment,so pretty close to my ear but we all know how sounds travel in an car. All seals have been cleaned and lubed with Gummi Pfledge. Any thoughts / experience?
I have to admit, most people wouldn’t notice or care but it is beginning to irritate🤷
