No rattles here in Oz, not even on New Year's Day at 46C. I did notice a rattle once but it was the speaker shaking my house keys in the door...

Dare I ask, are the SA built cars quieter that the Wolfsburg versions?

I get a rattle from the dash in my GTI - only when it's cold though  :undecided:  Not good enough for a £25k car  :angry:

Doesnt it feel so good to fix a rattle yourself....there was one that has been driving me mad for the last few days...turned out to be a loose bolt and washer in the panel at the side of the dash where the fuses are .....wooo hooo ....made my evening..was almost about to book it in..  :laugh:

too right. i fixed my ticking dashboard and i am so pleased with myself. although i can't take all the credit, my other half can now also dismantle and rebuild a golf dashboard faster than a vw tech.
