Golf IV R32 :: Constant Clicking Sound Coming From Behind The Radio
Mar 26, 2011
I started hearing a constant clicking sound coming from behind the radio (higher, towards the dashboard). The clicking is pretty loud and is present while the engine is on and when its off with the ignition on. Its also heard whether radio is on or off or the climate control is on or off. It is NOT heard from the outside with the hood up. What this could be?

Vehicle has been in the shop several times within one month( Battery test, replace accelerate idle switch, rear end replace) latest dilemma is with a constant clicking sound coming from under/ near dashboard on passenger side . No interior lights. All this occurs before I turn over the ignition. On some occasions if I enter the vehicle and don't hear the constant clicking sound. Whola, the vehicle starts every time. I disconnect the battery cable when coming in over night. 1997 112,000 miles.

I have an '04 V10 and most mornings, particularly when it's cold, I hear a clicking sound coming from what sounds like behind the radio. It sounds like a relay clicking on and off or a muted turn signal. It lasts for about 15 minutes. It has no relationship to RPM and cycles about once a second, maybe slightly faster.
I am bringing it in for its 10,000 mile service. I have had no driveability issues and no check engine lights, although I have not hooked up a Vag to check for codes.

Just installed raxle on my driver side. All clicking sounds are fixed but I noticed if I take right turns sometimes you can hear a constant clunking sound coming from the driver side wheel. It doesn't happen all the time, you kinda have to turn and hit a certain angle of the steering wheel. Also, only happens when driving low, if I raise the car just a little bit its gone. Never had issues with my oem axle binding so Im not sure how exactly does the binding sound?

There's a ticking that sounds like its coming from behind the radio or behind the glove box.

The sound comes from under the dash. recently the blinkers stopped working all together so I tracked down the problem to the hazard light switch and replaced that and the blinkers are working now. However, the clicking sound remains and seems to happen more just after using the turn signal but the sound happens randomly as well.
I'm thinking it might be the turn signal assembly located on the steering column. So, I was thinking of replacing the unit (it has both signal lever and wiper/wash lever) .

I have a small clicking sound coming from my intake manifold. I recently installed a boost gauge and it did it once after that... I shut the car off and I didn't hear again until 1000 miles later and its back, why it would be clicking like this but its annoying

The noise was getting more constant and less intermittent so i swung into the dealership. There is something mechanically wrong with the engine and i left in a loaner car. They did not feel it was safe to continue driving it until the problem is pinpointed. They didnt tell me
much other than that and that they are contacting VW concerning this..... 530 miles on ODO.
So a week ago i bought a golf r, it's a 4 door w/sunroof nav. It has 418 miles odo and is making a very intermittent tapping/clicking sound coming from the passenger side.
I've read about the fuel system pressure tester noise and heard it on youtube and it is NOT the sound i'm hearing. I notice it at lower speeds both coming to a stop and sometimes rolling away from a stop. Last time it did it while approaching a stop i immediately took the car out of gear and completely let off the clutch and the noise continued without change.
It is a repetitive clicking sound that does not change in tempo, it's constantly the same rhythm. It sounds almost exactly like a nail in a tire.... only there is no nail in any tire and it is completely random.
Theres been times where i've already been driving for 45 minutes yet it does it.
The car is basically brand new and NO i havent beaten it what so ever yet.

I've noticed this sound coming from the instrument panel area for a while now. It comes and goes, sometimes starts in the middle of driving, sometimes starts right when I start the car. It almost sounds like I have the turn signal on, but that's not it. There isn't much to see - the video is mainly so you can hear the sound.

I just started hearing this clicking/ticking sound about two days ago. It is definitely coming from the pulley/belt side of the motor and is more pronounced from under the car. I've tried to see what happens when I turn the A/C on and it still continues like normal. At idle its spaced 3 seconds apart with 3 consecutive clicks/ticks.
As I raise the RPM its spaced closer but still has 3 pronounced clicks that I can hear until the exhaust drowns it out. Tension on the belt seems to be good and its in good condition. The car runs better than it did a year ago with MPG actually going up a few about a week ago (cleaned the MAF, new filter, new tires).
I did have a P0103 code 2 weeks ago due to an over oiled K&N filter but I've done the work listed above since then with great results. The car runs great right now but I'm a stickler for the little details, like obnoxious noises (especially ones that are potentially bad).

There is a constant buzzing/clicking sound that seems to be coming from my navigation in the dash. It makes the noise all the time, not just at random times. It sounds as if the nav is trying to load something constantly? It is really strange, also sounds like a computer when you first start it up with the clicking and buzzing.

I just noticed that when I start my car I hear a constant whine sound. When I press on the gas it gets louder. When I'm stopped I hear it whining. What it may be?

I installed a Eurojet "Street" FMIC on my 2004.5 GLI a few weeks ago and ever since there has been a constant air hissing noise coming into the cabin. The noise has proven to be tricky to diagnose. It is loudest inside of the cabin and isn't audible under the hood. I boost leak tested the system and didn't find any obvious leaks. The sound doesn't appear to be boost related.
I don't seem to be loosing performance. (I've read a 2-3 psi drop is normal after FMIC install) The sound is constant and is faintly detectable even at idle inside the cabin. The sound's volume is dependent on the RPM's the engine is turning. The sound is constant whether the engine is on boost or vacuum. I can't explain this. My car isn't throwing any CEL's at all.
My mods are Revo Stage 2, 4 Bar FPR, 42dd TBE, Hyperboost DV, FMIC.

I started having an issue with my lexus ls460 2007, the radio works good, but sometimes the sound doesn't come out, in other words even on max volume I can hear almost anything, a clicking sound comes out with this problem, the thing is (hands free) works perfect, navi guidance works amazing, except all radio sounds including AUX gives out lil sound which I can't hear.

Recently blew the belt that runs the water pump, etc while on a vacation. Had to leave the car at a small mechanic in Winthrop, WA. He replaced the Water pump which had gone bad and the belt that shredded. The car ran beautifully for a week. Now there is this constant rattling sound coming from the water pump area. I attached a video with the sound. The sound will quicken as you accelerate. At cold start up it is usually not present then starts a couple of minutes in.

so I am driving today and I go to turn the sound up using the steering wheel controls and it starts going up then NO sound at all.
i switch from CD to CD and radio and still nothing no hissing no poping just seemed like the internal amp just cut out.. i was able to see the meter on the radio go up and down just no sound.. i turned the radio on and off and still nothing..
i get home and turn the car off and back on and it started working again..
i'm sure there is a problem but how major and if the dealer scans the car will they be able to tell it happened..
i prefer not to go up there to spend all day waiting to be told they couldnt duplicate the problem so theres nothing they can do..

Today I woke up to go to work and noticed that I don't have any sound coming from my radio. At first, I thought the station might be having some issues so I tried a different station and still no sound. I switched to CD player and guess what...no sound. I tried XM and guess what...no sound. I tried bluetooth and guess what...still no sound. When I got to my destination, I shut off the car, then started the car back up and guess what...still no sound. I messed with the sound settings and it's not in mute, volume controls are functioning fine. I know that the Dimension sound system have some kind of amplifier that is powering the speakers.

When you back up slowly from a parking lot or a parked position and start to pull out slowly turning... the car starts making this clicking sound... its not from the steering wheel.. but it feels and sounds like the sound is coming toward the front wheel somewhere...
