Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Bad Shaking - Pop Noise From Front End?


Dec 6, 2015

Okay, I'm driving 35mph and i feel this bad shake. I go to Les Schwab(bad choice) and they say wheel bearing. Okay so I replace both of them. After that, I'm stoked get in my car and same crap. Im pissed at this point so i am now thinking CV joint. but it could be the inner jv, in the tranny, or something else.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Front End Shake And Noise On MK4 VR6

My car has been acting odd recently and I didn't notice until a romp down a local twisty road. Under acceleration or braking there is a knocking sound almost as if the subframe is moving. You can feel it through the steering and pedals. Also around tight bends when applying throttle there is a vibration followed by a clunk and then harsh vibration. The best way I can describe the feeling is as if I rolled a tire off the rim. I've read through all the tech guides and nothing has fixed it. I have new driveshafts, New tie rods, New steering rack. Everything underneath seems tight and the rear torsion beam seems fine.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Roaring Noise Coming From The Front

I hear a roaring noise coming from the front of my 2003 Jetta. I know it needs some kind of front end work, but I am not sure what. The front passenger side tire also wore badly and prematurely on the inside and outside.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Clunking Noise In The Front On Both Sides

At low speed driving and hitting a small bump I hear a clunking noise in the front on both sides. But when driving at faster speeds and hitting a bump it makes no noise at all. I can't seem to figure out what it is.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Clunking Noise From Front Suspension

I am trying to find origin of clunking noise, but it is difficult to do as there is no visual signs and no excessive movements in any components.

Little bit of details and video. Noise occurs when moving rapidly steering wheel on stationary car with running engine. Not noticeable when at speed. Wheel is not vibrating and cv joints not clicking. Very tiny free movement in steering wheel about 1mm, but I am not sure if that is related maybe a completely different issue there. Mot tester make an advisory note that steering system slightly rough, but its not that useful to find an issue.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Clicking / Clunking Noise From Front End?

I've been having a problem with a popping/clicking sound coming from my front end for some time now. 2 days ago I replaced the top strut mounts thinking they were worn and this was the source of my problem, however, the noise persists.I have raised the car and have tried to physically move the wheels, up, down, left, right, but I get no play in any direction.

When the sound happens: If I go over small bumps in the road, or depressions, or speed bumps at slow speed I hear what sounds like a metal on metal sound, but muffled, not a clang, but a pop sound. I can induce it by stepping hard on the brakes, as the car lurches forward I get the sound. After stopping, when the weight moves back again I get the sound again.HOWEVER, I do NOT get the sound from acceleration. I have tried putting on the parking break and trying to take off, but I don't get the sound. The sound is their wether or not I'm in gear.

What could this sound be? My possibilities include:T ie-Rods, Axles, Transmission (loose bolts), broken engine mounts, loose subframe, or perhaps my control arm bushings (but they were replaced with poly bushings about 30k miles ago)

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2002 - Clunking Noise Coming From Front End

Ok so im going to try my best to explain this. Last week my passenger side motor mount broke the bolt snapped off and my engine fell on the ground and cracked the oil pan, too make a long story short someone put the wrong bolt in it and I fixed it with the right bolt. When the engine fell and the pan cracked i immediately shut the car off and coasted to the side of the road. I checked all bolts on the car to see if anything was loose but nothing was. But now when i start to take off i hear a clunk from the front end and i do not know what it is or could be. It is not the axles there is two brand new ones in it and have been checked. What it could be?

Car is a 2002 MK4 Jetta Wagon 2.0 .....

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2004 - AC Not Blowing / Front Wheel Making Noise

I just purchased a 2004 Golf 2.0 for my daughter. The car seems to be in good shape but it does have a few problems being used and 153k miles on it.

1 - a/c switch doesn't light up and the blower does not come on. No airflow thru the vents at all. I Googled this and it sounds like blower motor and/or resistor?

2 - when using key remote to lock doors the right side marker light sometimes stays on. I have to hit the lock/unlock 4-5 times for it to go out. Is this short?

3- Front left wheel bearing was replaced but the previous owner just did that one side. The front is making noise so I plan to do the right ASAP.

Anything else I should be watching for?

I had an 85 Golf - one of my favorite cars, bought this in the hopes this one would be as good to my daughter.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2003 - Noise From Front Driver Side While Driving

I have an issue that I have yet to figure out. While the car is in motion there is a rumble from what sounds like the front driver side. I've replaced the wheel bearing and CV axle already. The noise seems to have gotten better but its still there. The noise will worsen when turning left and pretty much disappear when turning right.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 1999 - Rattling Noise Comes From The Front Center Of Underside Of Car

My 99 Jetta is rattling. The noise comes from the front center of the underside of the car. It started out only when I was accelerating and would disappear when in neutral or after reaching 40mph. Now its when its idling and driving at any speeds under 40mph (I think it just gets drowned out above that speed). I looked under the car and saw that there might be a piece causing the noise but I can't figure out what it is. It seems to be in-line with the exhaust system and its a metal, cylinder looking piece that has uniform holes in it. I'm just trying to figure out what is causing the noise, if I can fix it easily or if this is going to be a pretty expensive fix. (It has 165k miles on it, is a 2.1 gas engine with the new body type).

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Clicking Noise From Driver Side Front Wheel

Lowered my car yesterday. 23" FTG. I'm now hearing a clicking noise from my drivers side front wheel.. I mostly hear it when my foot is off the gas and I'm just coasting (usually at slower speed). Also, it gets louder (worse) and is accompanied by what sounds like a rubbing when I take turns.. Is it axle bind? Or should I be concerned?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2003 TDI Shaking Between 75 - 85 Km/h?

I recently bought my first VW 1.9TDI and noticed that the car shakes between 75-85km/h, both when I drive at those speeds, accelerate and or even brake during that region. I know the car needs an alignment which I have booked in when I change to my winter tires tomorrow, but could this issue be something else like a bent rim? Or what else could this issue be coming from during those speeds.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Knocking Noise On Front Left Side When Clutch Pressed

So, I'm having this weird knocking noise on front left (drivers) side. It appears when I'm accelerating and stops immediately when i press clutch.. The noise gets stronger if i accelerate fast and gets faster, faster i go. Surprisingly the noise stops when i lift my car up and starts again at my drive height. Could it be driveshaft joints? And which one more likely? Outer maybe?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2001 VR6 Shaking Under Acceleration

My 01 gti VR6 just started shaking pretty hard under acceleration on the front end. I'm guessing I snapped something or loosened something on launch. It was running fine on the way to the hardware store. Then I took off quickly because of oncoming traffic and suddenly it started shaking on the whole front end. I can feel it and see it from the wheel to the dashboard. It happens around 30 Mph. I picked up the car put it on jack stands and when the load is off the tires it doesn't seem to shake. Being that it happened so suddenly I am not leaning towards a bent rim or alignment. I don't see much wear to the dog mount underneath and the engine doesn't seem to rock much when revving or putting in gear so I'm not thinking much for broken engine mounts.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2001 / 1.8t - Steering Wheel Shaking

I'm almost at a lose here. I have a 01 1.8t golf and at 60 the steering wheel shakes and at 80+ i feel it in the whole car. I've already replaced both axles, wheel bearings, tie rods, ball joints, new coilovers, new wheels and tires, and passenger side control arm. There's not much more I can replace besides hubs and driver control arm or do u think it could be defective parts like one of the new axles.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 1999 VR6 Shaking Quite A Bit On Startup And When Turned Off

So my VR6 shakes quite a bit on startup and when I turn it off. I figured it was the dogbone mount. I did the clutch trick, jacked up the front end and engaged the transmission. Of course the engine shook a lot, in a forward to back motion, signalling the dogbone was bad. Shifts into and out of 1st and 2nd were pretty rough and i could feel it in both the driver and passenger seats during idle.

Well I just installed the ECS dogbone and while I can't really feel it much in the seats anymore, it still shakes quite a bit once the transmission is engaged. Low end shifts really haven't gotten much better either.

So I am thinking its either one of the other mounts, or the polyurethane bushing needs to be worked in. I am leading toward the former.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2003 Car Shaking And Had A Ticking Sound At Startup

So I was on my to get some food and when started my car it was shaking really bad and had a ticking sound. I popped the hood and the engine was shaking violently, it drove fine one day to walmart and the next day started doing this. I am thinking it could be the coil pack because it was raining when I went to start it.
