Rumbling :S
« on: 01 May 2010, 22:32 »
My tdi 115 has started making funny sounds recently. When i pull off in 1st gear i get a rumble sound from somewhere in the engine bay, its only in the low down revs, it sometimes occurs when ive changed gear and im accelerating through the next gear. sounds like somethings loose but ive had allok round the engine bay and nothing appears to be loose/hanging off. Hope it isnt the gearbox/diff. Any common issues which follow these symptons?

Thanks

Does it also do it while turning at low speeds, possibly worse?

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Yea think so, well drop it off with my mate 2moz to let him check the pulley/tensioer all over. My belt needs doing soon anyway so will prob just get a new pully from vw and get it fitted. hopefully solve the hole horrilbe vibration/noise issue.
