    Hey there I had some massive chattering around the Dual Mass Flywheel on my B8 TDI 2.0L. Have just had the flywheel replaced with a brand new part, but it is still making a chattering sound even after its been changed. It is no where near as loud now and the transmission is not jumpy so it’s...

    Hello everyone. This is my first post I have a 2013 A6 3.0tdi Quattro, love it! However it’s developed a really faint knock from the front drivers side. It happens mostly over slight road imperfections/grids rather than over speed bumps. I’ve just had brand new genuine Audi pads, discs and...

    How’s your B&O Subwoofer?

    Does your subwoofer make a crazy rattling sound across all volumes increasing with intensity as the volume increases? I’ve had three visits to the dealership and they are now saying it’s a characteristic. Audi UK were completely useless and just asked me to create a case with the vehicle...

    Hi all, I'm looking for some information regarding the rear side passenger seatbelt straps in my 2016 PFL S3 saloon. I've owned the car for just over a month and I've noticed a really annoying rattle coming from the rear of the cabin area. I have narrowed it down to the seatbelt buckles...

    Rattle from the rear

    Getting a rattling noise from the rear of the car. It only happens in the wet and when the car has warmed up. Taking the fuse for the haldex out makes no difference, but I defiantly on happens in the wet. Any body had this issue and solved it? Everything I’ve read people suggest it’s the exhaust...

    Hi all, It's been a 6 month costly roller-coaster of ownership so far, 2004 B6 S4, and this latest issue has me (and the garage) at a loss. I'm now pitching the heart against the mind to decide how much longer to really keep going before calling it a day and retiring her. A recent...

    Parcel boot cover rattle

    Does your parcel boot cover rattle? Meaning, not the cover itself but the hooks that latch in the groves by the tailgate. I tried to stick some thin foam padded bits but after a while of silence, foam got worn out and rattle came back. Any permanent or longer lasting solution?

    I've had this annoying rattle for some time, which appears to be coming from within the dash, on the offside (driver's side), and is getting progressively worse. I've removed the front wheels, to look up at the top of the suspension strut, but nothing appears to be loose. I've also removed the...

    Does anyones DSG/S-Tronic rattle in P or N?

    Posted this in general as its more of a gearbox question rather than a specific B8 question. My car makes a rattling/thudding sound when it Park or Neutral. Its definitely gearbox related because when I put it into Drive or Reverse it goes quiet and you can just hear the engine. I can only...

    A6 3.0tdi rattle on warm startup
