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.

    Knock noise in cabin!

    hello, I have recently just bought a 6c Polo Gti and I love the car except there is this knock/rattle that i cant figure out! It only happens when the car shifts weight (over drive-way or bumps) and when accelerating from a stop or braking. It sounds like it's coming from the B-Pillar on the passenger side but i've already inspected that and can't figure it out. Anyone else had similar problems?

    This video is a really good reference @ 19sec.

    Loosen off the door latch and spray silicone spray between the latch and the inner door surface and re-tighten.

      Hi...i have a similar problem and have found that it is the downpipe flexing and hitting the heat shield.
      hope that helps
