Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

About damn time. I drove a 2008 Tiguan 125TSI the other week and couldn't believe it also rattled. Googled it when I got home and found it has the EA888 as well, so they will have more than just mk6 GTIs to fix.
I have got over the rattle but it still detracts from what is otherwise a flawless car. I'm looking forward to hearing the last of it!

I had same issue it sounded at first like it was a pinging sound from poor fuel quality but i always fill with 98 Ron. After searching for
possible cause i have learned that this noise is a normal sound caused by air turbulence close to wastegate then hitting the down pipe. No
need to worry!!!!!!!
