How many miles does the car have on it?

My gear change was slightly notchy but I put it down to being a new car. 2500 miles in and it's fine.

Hi GiT1984

Did you ever get ur suspension sorted and if so what was the problem?

Ur description is similar to what I've been experiencing for a while although the cars been inspected and was told all fine.... I also have DCC.

Cheers in advance

I had an issue with noise coming from passenger side rear suspension when going slow, booked it in and VW told me something was not sitting right so they made the adjustment and it is fine now.

I've gotten used to mine creaking like the titanic now, just gonna replace the strut top mounts when I change to the VWR springs and hope that fixes it.

Had my rear shock replaced last week, which has really made it quieter over bumps and uneven surfaces.  Still quite a bit of road noise, but I think that is the Bridgestones as much as anything.

I've got mine in the workshop today.  It's like having a bass drum in the boot on some roads.  The courtesy Up! is a lot quieter!  Let's hope that mine doesn't already have the revised shocks fitted.

Apparently mine is normal.  I have specifically asked them to confirm what model of shock I have though as they haven't done this yet.  Time will tell.

Mines got the DCC and the nearside front "clonks" or "patters" over bumps (depending on the severity and frequency). Funnily enough, when you move into Comfort or Sport the noise goes away - only to return a short while after you move it back to normal (but not immediately, which is even more weird).  :rolleyes:

It's booked in with my local dealer for 2 days - the week after next - so I'll report back! :nerd:
Hi GiT1984, was there an update from your dealer visit?

Thanks.
