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.

    I saw a TPI replacing the speakers.

    The speakers are hitting the trims.

    Keep me updated.

      The top plastic part of the door trim surrounding the tweeter will be the culprit. Mine all do it but I've also boosted the sound system with an AMP etc. When I have the time to replace my speakers I will get some dynamat put around the area.

        Took the car to dealer and they said they can hear nothing.

        Maybe deal with the noises next time or maybe myself reassembly the door again.

          This is the most frustrating phase of rattle control, trying to get the dealer to acknowledge it. I spent 12 months trying to get my dealer to identify the B-pillar rattle in my 2006 B6, and it took a world-wide service notice to make them move on it. Poor factory galvanising had separated in a large proportion of the initial build.

          Anyway, getting the new trim next week... In the mean time the left hand side trim has started chattering. Sigh.

              I noticed it with mine today starting only 2500ks on the clock. Passenger door and the rattle stops if I press against the arm rest. Only notice it on the course highway roads. I think it's that and the tweeter plastics.

              I'll probably mention it at the first service but I'm not sure how keen I am on the dealer pulling doors apart.

                The other thing is, mine went away on its own and I'm over 5,000km already. Yeah I do a lot of km. So it may be a "phase". Loosen up after time?

                  I'm at ~14k KM. Noise is still there.

                    I’d like to think so but not only is it becoming more persistent at 32000km, but the other side is revealing its need for conversation too.

                      OK, so I've had the door surgery done earlier in the week, and so far so good. But of course, early days.
                      The dealership replaced a speaker moulding, not the whole door trim, but it was the apparent source of the problem.

                      For those interested, the part number is 3G0867420DJLV, and is described as 'Moulding'. I didn't actually see what they replaced so no description beyond that. Sorry.
