Golf mk6 / Re: Any ideas what this could be please?

I would start with the common issues first.

Check for air/vac leaks and the first place I would be looking is at the PCV valve.

Golf mk6 / Any ideas what this could be please?
« Last post by Norwichdaz on 22 November 2025, 23:13 »


Couple of weeks ago turned the car on and was running rough, and made a spluttering sound like the vid link I have put up.

All ran fine then yesterday it ran even rougher, sat there q
10-15 mins till warmed up and then was fine for the rest of the day, but still doing the spluttering /blowing noise when came off the pedal?

Sounds like a blow in the exhaust but had it checked and apparently seemed ok.

« Last post by AWB on 22 November 2025, 14:31 »
Hello I have a 2013 mk7 golf tdi se and I am looking to put a gtd front bumper on it. I was wondering if anyone that has already done this would they know if it’s a straight swap and does it align correctly or do you have to make changes for it to fit. Do I also need to make sure that the bumper if from a certain year of gtd??? Thanks

I’ve had an occasional clunk after the parking brake auto applies if I turn off the engine without applying the handbrake, only a few times but I wonder if it’s related. No idea what causes it but doesn’t sound ‘right’ if that makes sense.

Mine seems to do this on my 8.5 from time to time. A bit annoying and seems to be worse when auto hold is on. Did anyone raise this with the dealer.

Might be covered.  Might not.  Got to try to get in touch with the useless service dept at MK VW.  Might be quicker to sell the car.

Thanks.  I've got the All in One.  Will have a look at the detail.  Front vents all working fine

When you say you have the extended warranty, VW have a range of warranty products and the cover will differ from product to product. So whether or not your warranty covers your issue may depend on its scope of cover.
  • VW’s stand alone extended warranty product where you can select either All Component or Named Component cover
  • VW’s All In product which also includes servicing, MOT and breakdown cover
  • VW’s Approved Used warranty
So maybe check the small print in the warranty booklet for your specific warranty to see if it would cover failure of and / or defective components of the heating and ventilation system. Presumably heating and cooling from the front vents for the driver and front seat passenger is working as it should?
