Golf/GTI VI :: Creaking Sound Close To B-pillar Driver Side


Apr 29, 2010

For some rattles or creaking, this is a link of my creaking sound close the B-pillar, driver side. The thing appear when the weather is a bit more hot, around 10c +, or when I beat the car for around 20-30 mins.

[URL] ....

U will hear this Ta-ta-ta-tak-tak tak each time I accelerate, for 2k to 3k rpm to hear it better. Sound like an old subway that dive and creak by the high pressure... The sound can be hear on some bumpy bad roads too but it a lot more frequent when I just accelerate.

[URL] .....

On this second video that I do a start, u hear it between 10-12 sec of the video. When I start accelerate. Where it come from and I am scary that my dealer will never find the trouble

Golf/GTI VI :: B-Pillar Trim Creaking Sound

Experiencing the black b-pillar trim creak? Just pressing on that black vertical plastic trim causes the plastic sounding "creak".

Just curious... what was the solution? It's driving me nuts.. it is so sensitive that when the car just moves into the sunlight, it starts creaking as it expands in the heat.

Golf/GTI VI :: Ticking Sound Coming From The Rear Of Driver Door Or B-Pillar

I'll be sitting at a stop light and I'll start hearing this ticking sound which seems to come from the rear of the driver door, or perhaps the B pillar. Opening and shutting the door will make it go away for a short time, but it returns by the time I get to the next light.

It's very steady, about one tick per second. At highway speeds it's either non-existent or too faint to hear. I have a 2-door.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2000 - Sunroof Leak / Water Overflows The Tray Runs Down To Driver Side C Pillar

So as the title says the sunroof in my 2000 Jetta is leaking. I've taken down a, b, and c pillars, and the headliner. Poured water in the drain tray and no noticeable leak.. however when I spray it with the hose, the water overflows over the drain tray at the drain ends and into the car like Niagara falls. I've check all the connections, pinched open the plugs. I've already replaced the sunroof seal, which was noticeably shrunken. The new one fits snug all around but I'm still getting the leak. The water (from what i can tell) over flows the tray, runs down the headliner to the drivers side C pillar and then down into the trunk where the cd changer / safety kit was. I usually park uphill, and the one time I parked down hill and sprayed it with the hose the water was "Niagara falling" into my passenger seat.

Golf/GTI VI :: Creaking Or Rattle Noise Seemingly Coming From B-Pillar

I did a quick search on the 'creaking' or 'rattle' noise seemingly coming from the B-Pillar and found just a bunch of complaints.

Any fix, whether DYI or dealer? It is driving me crazy and is completely unacceptable for a brand new car, of any make or model. What to do and that is what I will do. No matter the measures at this point.

Golf/GTI VII :: Driver Side Door Creaking When Turning?

There is a creaking sound coming from my driver's side door only when turning right. It sounds like it's specifically coming from the strike plate or latch area. I've pinpointed it to the door because it doesn't happen when I slightly open it but leave it hinged.

Golf/GTI VII :: Driver Side Button Does Not Cause The Window To Fully Open Or Close

So once in a while, a full press (either up or down) on the drivers side window button does not cause the window to fully open or close fully as it should... I'm wondering if this is something (a "feature") I'm somehow activating and just don't know it, or what. If I roll the window all the way up (needing the hold the button up until the window is all the way up), it will then behave normally--a full press down, release, and the window will go all the way down. This just started in the last month or so...

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Driver Side Door Won't Close - Just Bounce When Shut It

So last night, I went to close my car door and it just "Bounced" when I went to shut it. It did this a few times and then I got it closed. So I left it until this morning and now it won't close at all and just bounces. I believe the latch is broken. Any quick fixes to this?

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: 2007 - Creaking Sound Coming From Driver Side Front Wheel Area?

MY '07 SuperCab just started making a strange rhythmic sound as I drive. It is coming from the drivers side front wheel area. It is like a short creaking sound.

Ford 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003) :: Slight Creaking Sound Coming From Front Driver Side

Tonight on my way home I noticed a slight creaking sound, coming from front driver side, opening the window it was more noticeable. So when I got home I have tried to locate the source, it is the same with or without the engine running & you can hear it by rocking the steering just a little left to right. It sounds like a dry bush, I had my good lady rocking the wheel while I climbed underneath but couldn't pinpoint it, so I climbed up on the fender with my weight on the radiator support & the battery cover, when she turned the wheel the sound was almost gone but as soon as I jumped off it was back! I then tried rocking the truck from the driver side fender & the sound is there but not quite so pronounced, Any other way before I spray everything with WD40 (don't know if you have that over there but it usually quietens things like this!) There is no play on anything anywhere & the truck has only around 32k miles.

Avalon 2005-12 :: 3rd Gen - Wind Noise From The Top Of Driver Side A Pillar

I have a 2011 limited and around 41 mph I get a lot of wind noise from the top of the driver side A pillar. I did some research and it seems like it's a known issue. During my research I found there may have been an advisory issued (T-TT-0065-10) by Toyota, but the dealer can't find a record of it.

I've heated the seals / molding around the top of the door and re-fluffed it which didn't work. The seals are doing their job. When I pressure wash the car no water is getting in (never did). Tried sealing the gaps with blue painters tape to stream line the gaps and that didn't work. I'm pretty sure the noise isn't caused by the seal. It's difficult to pinpoint.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: Water Leakage On A Pillar Driver Side

Discovered a water leak on the A pillar driver's side (note right-hand drive)? We had a down pour today and my car has never exhibited this before. I got in my car today and noticed that there was a wet spot at the top and a wet spot under and to the side of the tweeter. This seemed to be quite soaked as pushing on it you could feel it was wet. I checked around the A-pillar and it goes up a little into the roof lining (about an 1/8th of the way on the top of the door ). Today , I heard a small gush of water, but that was about it. The car was on level ground. How do I take off the A-pillar so I can see if something has jammed up or something?

Lexus LS 2007+ :: Wind Noise At The Driver Side B-pillar

And, mods, this probably should be a separate thread since it's prpobably not related to the other issues.

I suddenly noticed some wind noise at the driver's side B-pillar the other day, almost like my window wasn't closed tight. But it was. So later on, I checked the outside of the window and found that the little external rubber seal on the rear vertical portion of the door frame was kinked and not laying flat. This is where the window moves up and down in its channel on the trailing edge.

I managed to press the seal back in place and it solved the problem ... but the next time I rolled my window down and back up, it kinked again.

My car is now at the dealer awaiting a new seal. For some reason, it decided to start scrunching up the seal when the window is raised, and the seal has to be replaced.

So if you hear wind noise over your left shoulder (or your passenger over his/her right shoulder) check that the little narrow black rubber seal is where it should be ... laying flat.
