I suppose it is just the luck of the draw, mine has been good so far, touch wood!  :smiley:

for your sake, I touch wood as well!  :smiley:
but as for me, I am  :cry:

So has the remap made the rattles any worse??? or does it just rattle what ever you do??

I certainly dont have any rattles from mine and everything seems to be screwed/glued together quite well.. but then the R32 does feel more planted than the Gti.

remap soothes the psychological pain from rattling, in fact.
It rattles especially when it is cold, I guess plastic contracts.
I have "rattly" dashboard now, have to fix it.  :sad: Back seat rattles, sometimes doors rattle. Once in a while "moonroof"  :rolleyes: rattles when opened...

i know its not warm here, but perhaps its colder there so the plastic is less flexible when cold

Is it definately rattles?? not creaks n sweeks?? I had a problem with creeking when I got mine but that was just the door seals rubbing... easily solved with the oil/lubricant thats used for the same problem in the eos :cool:

I've seen 6 degrees in the morning the other day. Usually it is 9 degrees at 8 in the morning. The car flies in these temps though!  :smiley:

^ Thats a shame mate! Im sure the remap is helping take your mind off things though. Maybe its worth taking things apart yourself and seeing if you can tighten/replace any of the loose screws. Whats the worst that can happen! :huh:
