New Tiguan with wind noise drivers window - any others?

[iDiesel]

Ok, the 4 motion does make some noises, but I only notice it on hard acceleration when it’s pushing more torque to the rear and when turn hard lock (or near lock) when pulling out of the driveway. My first (new and modern) VAG car and had me a bit concerned something was loose, but seems pretty normal.

There’s a thread on it here somewhere

Thanks for the heads up. I had a look at that thread and it’s something else that I actually noticed only last night when slowing down and turning into my street with a 90 degree turn. It makes that scrubbing type of noise almost like creaking noise that I used to hear in my MK6 GTI on a wet day. It’s immediately followed by this other noise on light to medium acceleration up to about 2000rpm which I feel now sounds like muffled grating noise. Maybe that’s what Simonr23 is describing on pg 4.I might go down to a dealership and have a drive of demo cars.

My Tig has a fair amount of wind noise at 100km/hr, but I assume that’s caused by the roof racks and bike carrier (all VW genuine)??? I should take it all off and see what difference it makes.

It doesn’t really bother me as most of my day to day driving is 60km/hr or less and whenever I’m on road trip out of the city I usually have loud music cranking.
