Golf V R32 :: Rattling Noise From Speaker
Feb 28, 2008
How many are having a problem with the door speakers vibrating when playing music with a fair amount of bass? Both of my door speakers are making noise even when playing music at relatively low volumes with just a moderate amount of bass.
Is there a known fix for this problem? Will my dealer have the parts necessary to fix the problem? I will be due for my first oil change in a couple of weeks and was wondering if I should call and give them a heads up.

I need some speaker upgrade recommendations that'll fit into the door cards - specifically the subwoofers - I've replaced an OEM speaker in the driver side once already and it's doing the same thing as before it has a weird vibration/rattle noise with certain freqs. It may very well be the way it's sitting in there but I doubt it.

Noticed that the stock speakers are very susceptible to getting blown? Rarely do I have crank up the music as I'm driving, but the right front speaker is rattling so bad now that I don't even turn on any music now until I can take it in to get replaced. The speaker settings are all slightly over mid range for bass, treble, etc.

I picked up my GS350 this past saturday.
I took a 64 mile round trip drive yesterday with the audio between 16-22 volume and there's definite rattling coming from the right passenger side door.
This was through the Satellite Radio Feed. It wasn't all the songs but any songs with the extended drawn out bass you can here it rattle.
I'm about 115 miles in and will most likely take it in this week. There's nothing in the side door compartment...

I hear faint rattling from what looks like a center speaker grill on the dash (behind my sensor for DRL) when I press down on it, the noise goes away. What is the purpose of that center grill?

Yesterday I noticed the rear driver's side speaker buzzing in my GTI S. Is it possible that I already have a blown speaker (I don't usually crank the system)? Maybe it has something to do with the -5 temps? Anyway, should I take it to the dealer or see about getting some aftermarket speakers since the S sound system is pretty mediocre?

I have a 2007 Lexus GS 350 with the Mark Levinson audio system. I am starting to hear a sound from the passenger side door speaker like a rattling when there is low bass in a song. I wanted to know much it should cost me to have all the speakers replaced to higher quality ones.
I don't need crazy bass that will make my windows shatter, however currently these speakers feel like if I put any hip hop or dubstep on more speakers will blow. I do NOT want to have to cut any part of my car to install new speakers, I am not comfortable with someone cutting holes or making bigger holes to fix the new speakers.

Have a rattling noise in excess of 70 MPH. Didn't have any unusual noises before I put the EVOMS in, so I'm thinking it's something related to it. Only thing I lacked was the two OEM rubber grommets that, according to the EVOMS install instructions, were reused on the aftermarket airbox.
Item #2 on the IPC:
Other suspected culprits are the firewall blanket or the belly pan, which is hanging slightly on the aft end.

Having issues with a rattling noise with their APR TBE? The rattling continues even after the car is warm. Sounds like its coming from somewhere in the middle or more towards the front of the vehicle.

Yesterday i had taken my front grill off, 08 R32 including the bottom sections where fogs would otherwise be since you have to.... Anyway, i did all that to get my euro plate secured on my grille. Now I'm hearing a rattling noise when I go over a rough surface or descent sized bump. Everything with the grill is clipped and bolted back in tightly, any other things that could be causing this?

I am a new owner of a 2011 Tomato Red GTI and was wondering if the sound my car makes is normal. Whenever I let off the clutch the car makes a rattling noise and i can feel it with my foot. Is that normal in our cars?

I own a MK4 Golf GTI which has recently started making a rattling noise when I first start the car (Perhaps cold weather?). It will continue for roughly a minute despite load (A/C, acceleration) before It stops and It won't happen again until the car has cooled down hours later. It's quite an unsettling noise and I would like to be set in the right direction.
After a couple hours online I'm leaning towards perhaps the belt tensioner being to blame? I haven't delved too deep into the noise but do believe it is from the left side of the motor. Can likely clarify on the weekend.
Is there anything to worry about? If so, where do I start? I myself was trying to fiddle around and see if the noise would happen at higher revs, which it seems to. [URL] .....

Chatter or noise in general from your power steering? Backing into my parking spot today I heard rather loud chatter when the wheel was hard over. Seemed to get louder when the car was in motion. Overall the power steering is rather loud and sounds like it struggles but I am not sure if that is normal on these. The chatter definitely can not be normal. Car only has 700 miles on the clock

I would really want to know what is causing this sound as it has become louder.
The noise can be heard in this short video: [URL] .....
The noise is coming from the area of the pulleys, and can be perfectly heard behind the passenger side front wheel.
The car is an AWD 1.8T Golf 2002 model.

I have had my car for two weeks and I noticed a rattling noise when I pull out in drive (DSG). It only rattles sometimes and at very low rpm for about two or three seconds and it goes away. The dealership has looked at it twice and didn't find anything. Of course, when I drove around with the mechanic it didn't rattle. Someone posted a video with some flex pipe noise which is very similar to what I am experience but it was mentioned on it that the rattle should go away after some miles. I already have 700 miles and still rattles. Dealership said the exhaust wasn't loose.
I finally got my GTI after having a hard time letting my beloved Rabbit go away and this noise is keeping me awake at night.

Getting a loud rattling noise from the front of car in Park or Neutral? As soon as I put the car in D/M. I have heard that the transmission is noisy in neutral, but just want to double check.

Ever since day 1, I noticed my wife's 2011 TDI/DSG make clattering/rattling noise during low gear changes (1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd gear), it sounded like a diesel engine's clattering/clicking but a little louder at gear changes. I mentioned it to the dealer at 3month/3k checkup and they test drove and say it's normal. Is it really normal?

I have a 2003 1.8t jetta. I got it in the fall and never really needed to turn on my AC until this week. It works, fans work at all speeds, blows ice cold air.
But i noticed today that my fans can be on and nothing. But when I hit the AC button there's a loud rattling sound. Everything works. It's just making noise when the AC is on. Whenever I turn it off the noise goes away.
I tried looking it up and couldn't find anything.

Last night pulling into a parking lot, I caught something on the lip of the entrance and there was a loud clunk. Naturally I looked for a different exit from the parking lot, but there wasn't one and on the way out I hit it again. Since then, I've had a loud scraping/rubbing/rattling noise whenever I'm off the accelerator. I haven't been able to get under the car to check things out, but my suspicion is that the resonator is rubbing on the driveshaft, and when I push the gas, the resonator moves down out of the way.

I'm new to the VW family as a couple weeks ago I purchased a 2003 VR6 Jetta. So far I LOVE it and it's been by far my favorite car I've driven. About a week ago, I was visiting my parents back home (I'm a college student) and when I went to turn on my car to go back to school I received the alternator workshop message. I didn't want to take the risk so I took my sister's car back to school and my dad took my car into a local mechanic during the week.
Unfortunately, the mechanic we took the car too does not specialize in European cars (They're just a general mechanic/Ford dealership), but we didn't want to take the risk of driving a car with a potentially failing alternator to the closest VW mechanic (About 40 minutes away). The car was repaired and a new alternator added. All was going well, but I began to notice a slight "clunking" noise when first accelerating/lifting my foot off the brakes. I didn't think too much of it and it wasn't very loud nor severe. To me, it sounded like the interior plastic shifting when I moved.
Anyway, here I am a week later and I'm noticing a lot of noises that didn't exist before, including the clunk I just mentioned. I took a few audio recordings. (For the record, there is NO CEL or any dash lights currently on, thus why I'm not as concerned).
The first audio: [URL] ....
In this link, I'm driving the car around the parking lot in which I park my car here at school. It's mostly bumping gravel, but at the time of the recording I was driving very slow. You can hear a squeaking noise.
The second audio: [URL] ....
In this link, I'm revving the car while parked. Something I've noticed that it didn't used to do is rattle while idling ever so slightly (It's not audible in the recording), but in the recording you are able to hear a slight clunking noise.
