That sounds suspension related. Happend to my mk4. The spring snapped and dug into the top mount.


Get that wheel off and check it asap. Sounds dangerous.

Really cant say without looking at it tbh.

What engine size?

MK2 Singh on here had a similar problem. turned out to be the exhaust downpipe on his 1.3.

Worth a look maybe?
