Title: New rattle today...
Post by: Kentdan on 22 February 2020, 19:38: Evening all.
So I’ve noticed that a new rattle noise has developed this morning when driving my 2013 gti. It sounds like it’s coming from the passenger side in the engine bay but could be coming from anywhere in the front. It’s a metallic sound and only does it when braking or slowing down but not all the time. I put it into neutral and it still does it. I’ve filmed it but just trying to work out how to upload it. Anyone had anything similar? And if so what was causing it
Many thanks

Dan

Post by: Kentdan on 23 February 2020, 17:39: Just tightened the centre bolt as was a tiny bit loose. I’ll see if it’s sorted it in the morning.
