Saw and heard neighbour's friend's black GTD 5 door manual.
Clutch depressed, less rattle. Clutch released, significant increase in rattle. Just like ajmoir's car.
Very, very noisy overall.

What after a 25 mile run?

I assume GTI's dont make this noise too?

Even after a 25 mile run? all in one go? its becoming interesting that some report it doesnt do it and some report it does.

Can I ask why you didn't get the DSG? :cool:
Because I presume he's not an invalid.  :wink:

I didnt like the way the DSG drove.  I don't think DSG suits a diesel really.
