Thanks John, Lasts as long as i am gentle on the throttle and in 2 cylinder mode..
from doing some research it seems like its probably the Wastegate actuator rattling as the noise sounds exactly the same as in video
Being the 150ps variant and FL i believe it should've been engineered out...
@GGP im beginning to feel your pain, its only irritating me more as i drive, How long does it last for you? mine seems to be continuous whilst in 2 cylinder mode and being gentle on the throttle
Thanks for both getting back to me! Was driving around last night and can confirm its definitely due to 2 cylinder mode... Looked around online and seems pretty common on this specific engine affecting alot of seats & VW's that share this engine, Have to admit its pretty irritating but i can...
Apologies if this exists elsewhere but i have looked around and cant seem to find anything...
I recently just bought a 2016 Audi a3 post facelift 1.4 tsfi 150 with 30k miles.
Loving the car so far however the engine seems to make an odd noise when cursing at 30-40mph at roughly 1500 to 1800...
