Golf/GTI VI :: 2011 - Audible Noise When Shift From 1st To 2nd At Any RPM
Jul 3, 2016
I just picked up my first newer vw this past friday, i love the cae but have noticed when i shift from 1st to 2nd pretty much at any RPM generally between 2.5k and 4k i have an audible noise almost what i want to call a grind more distinct than any other gear theres no resistance and it seems to be working just fine, the noise is not there downshifting from 3rd to 2nd i was just wondering is this something i should be worried about or is this normal for the car? currently at 38k

If the fuel pump in the right rear of the car is making an audible noise, does that mean it is the incorrect fuel pump, or is that normal?

Its a fairly quiet clicking noise. Not constant and starts randomly. I can really hear it when i am in the fast lane next to a barrier or crub? I recently started autoxing. So maybe i beat up something - what it would be though. I checked all my fender liners and splash guard. Everything looks good, but this noise is driving me nuts.

Still reading through the 2014 manual so go easy. Is there a setting that provides an audible alert when the headlights are left on?
I'm not a fan of auto Headlights, especially since I read here to expect only 2-3 years from an OEM battery.
All my other cars beep at me if the lights are on when I remove the keys.

Today while backing into a spot at work (parked on a flat surface) my 2011 Sonata GLS automatic tranny, when I went to shift the car in reverse felt a big jerk and rather loud noise from shifting.... Haven't heard it since.... I think this happened to me once before many months ago... also on a side note why do I hear a almost a crunching noise when I am steering the car in reverse... I just had my car in for a oil change too.. I'm the only driver and owner of the car it has about 42k on the odometer.

2011 Sonata. I just started hearing, and feeling as well, a clicking noise from the shift lever while in drive. I understand this is the interlock feature, however, I do not recall feeling this before. I also thought it only activated while in park, but I could be wrong. Is this normal?
I also am noticing a loud rattling noise coming from the engine bay, behind the speedo, under certain conditions. If I use light throttle, the 1-2 shift produces a loud rattling near 1900rpm.

I have a 2011 Sonata with 4,000 miles. Recently, I have noticed that when coming to a stop, I hear a light thump noise in the center console area near the gear shift lever. If I put my hand on the gear shifter, I can feel it move ever so slightly at the time of the noise. The noise is very repeatable. If I take my foot off the brake and start rolling and then I reapply the brake (either softly or hard) it will make the thump noise. It is not very loud and can be drowned out with loud music, but if listening to news, it is very noticeable and annoying in city traffic, where stops are very frequent. I put the car up on ramps and looked underneath and did not see anything noticeable. It will probably require the center console between the seats to be removed.

So, I took my 2011 Sonata SE in for service because I was having some transmission problems (18,000 miles). After starting the car and putting it into drive or reverse, the car would make a large clunk noise and surge forward or reverse. This happened only twice. I was also periodically getting some very hard shifts. They told me that they were getting an error showing a bad temperature sensor for the transmission fluid so they had to replace it. A lot of this started after the update. We will see if that fixes the problem.

I have a clicking sound that seems to be coming from under the middle to rear of the car. Its audible with the windows down at anything over 15 mph. It sounds like some ball bearings are clicking around randomly and it's driving me crazy. I have continued to drive and nothing has hard failed yet after 2000 miles. My thought it was a front inner cv that went (grease all over) so I replaced that today, but no affect on the noise.
Other than wheel bearings, the only stuff back there is the haldex and shaft which could be big money. I know the shop I used had to remove the drive shaft to put in the exhaust- anything I can/should check on that?

I recently bought a 2012 Golf 2.5L, and I absolutely love it. There is, however, a very annoying clicking sound that's audible in the cabin. I think it's coming from the overhead console area, where the lights, bluetooth, voice command, etc. are located.
Basically, it sounds like two plastic parts rubbing against each other. At first, I thought it might have been the latch on the sunglasses compartment. Then, I thought it might have something to do with the plastic reacting to changes in temperature. Ultimately, though, I can't figure it out. I've heard this sound when the cabin is both cold and warm, on bumpy roads and smooth roads, etc.
I don't know if I'm being excessively anal, but I find it really distracting. Is this something I should bring up with the dealer, or is there a quick fix/common sense solution? I feel a bit silly complaining over something like this, but it's beginning to drive me bonkers. Other than that, the car drives great.

I just purchased my vw used with 28,000 miles on it. After its been parked for a while, I open the drivers side door and an audible whirring noise coming from somewhere in the car goes off, what is this noise coming from?

New GTI with PP. Less than 400 miles. When I brake at low speeds, I can hear the sound of the pads and rotors rubbing, bringing the car to a stop. It's a light grind/rub sound. Nothing disturbing - just not silent. Is this normal? Perhaps just the brakes and rotors breaking in?

My '99 Toyota Corolla with 145K miles is making this rattling noise. It is audible in drive and reverse, but not in neutral or park. At first I thought coming from the dashboard area, like under the hood. However, I tried listening under the hood and couldn't really hear it over the engine noise. Finally I realized it actually seems to be coming from under the dashboard on the driver's side, right above the pedals. I made a recording holding the microphone down there. Here is a link to the audio file: [URL] .....

For those of you who have the 42 Draft Downpipe, I have a weird audible vibration during acceleration and I'm assuming something isn't mounted 100% correctly.
I remember a while back I saw a post about something similar but search is failing me at the moment. So what was the resolution?

Quick background. 1+ years ago I'd sometimes get the "moo" when in reverse. It was intermittent and never enough or a persistent issue to address. Recently, no moo, but I noticed when I'd release the parking brake and move forward there'd be a minor hesitation and an audible thunk, not too pronounced, then it'd roll freely from then forward.
Replaced rear brakes a few weeks ago, noticed the right side parking brake arm doesn't reset as far free as the left. Pushing it 'home' by hand made a little thunk in the cable house up near where it bends towards the vehicle's midline. Brakes installed, and it spun freely by hand with perhaps only a very small amount of 'hiss' but not consistent for a full revolution, only periodically. Lubed both cables from the center console.
Last night installed parking brake return springs, set and released the parking brake a few times to see how it felt. Right side looks like it still does not return home 100% (maybe, 2-3mm away, same as before). Today, made a run to Napa. Got there fine, when leaving, drop the parking brake, and as I'm grabbing reverse I get a yellow dash light and a "check brake pads" warning. I drove about a block, pulled over, shut off engine, got underneath (no parking brake set) and the arm seemed to sit about where it should. I drove a few miles at low speed, pulled over (left engine running, set parking brake), checked temp of all rotors (both sides) with my finger, nothing noticeable. Drove a few more, repeated the above (engine running, brake set) and temps were still cool.
Got home, replaced fans. Started up to test fans, and the error isn't there now.
If it was going to throw an error I'd more likely expect it when leaving home, where I had cycled the parking brake handle multiple times. No error there, or en route to Napa. Leaving Napa, parking brake engaged only once, I got the error. Powering off and restarting, it was still there. Successive stops did not have the engine shut off. Once home, it cleared.

I have a 04 F250 4x4. This growling noise has been driving me nuts. Its barely audible, but its there. Brought it to the dealer for service a few weeks ago, they said I had a bad front hub bearing. So I got the truck back, ordered a hub bearing, and last weekend jacked the truck up to see whats going on. Spun both front wheels, no noise whatsoever. Checked for up/down play and side/side play, nothing. So I held off on installing the hub bearing.
The noise is really more noticeable when going down the road and when you hit dips in the road. Kinda where the bounce puts more force/weight on the front end, the growling gets louder. The truck has 74k miles on it. Its there whether the hubs are locked or unlocked. Could I still have a bad hub bearing even though the wheel spins free and quiet, and no play???

I just got a 2013 Corolla Saturday (manual transmission). So far, I love the car, but I think I'm having a problem with the steering column. When I turn the steering wheel in a parked position, I can hear an audible "rubbing" noise coming from the column. I called the dealership, and spoke not only to the service department, but also to my salesman, who has one too. He says he's never heard that, and the service department assures me it's normal and is because it's an electric motor now instead of a fluid power steering system.
So, do I have reason to be concerned? Experienced this after only 300 or so miles on a new car? We traded a Scion IQ for this Corolla (didn't like the CVT whine in the IQ), and never heard anything like this.

Sometimes when I shift from first to second and second to third I hear a clanking noise coming from under the car. It happens when I move the stick and clutch pedal is fully depressed. Doesn't happen all the time and doesn't happen in gears 4-6. Something I should be worried about? Car is stock and has about 1k miles. It's been doing this since I bought it.
Also get a deeper boom noise coming from back sometimes when depressing clutch petal when under boost. Think this is normal tho? My BMW used to do the same thing.

I have the mods listed below in my signature. When I shift gear and have almost completely released the clutch to move up into the next gear I get a clicking noise and feel from my transmission I think or maybe differential. This is with traction control off and is only noticeable at lower rpms like a low rpm shift from 1st into second.

How to get rid of that stupid buzzing noise from the exhaust every time it shifts in higher RPM, It freaking sounds like a Honda and it is driving my crazy. I did the Exhaust flap mod but it didn't go away.

So when I shift from 2nd to 3rd I hear, for lack of a better word, a 'whistle' type noise while shifting. It sounds like its coming from inside the car under the shifter.
