Touareg :: Squeal Noise Coming From Steering


Feb 17, 2008

We've had a few cold mornings here in NY, especially at the time I leave the house where it's 10-15 degrees. I started the engine on these cold mornings. However, whether I warm her up or not I get a squealing noise from what I believe to be the steering. If I move the steering wheel (the first time it happened I was getting in and shifted the steering wheel), I get a very high pitched squeal. Once I've driven her a few minutes, the squealing disappears. But it doesn't matter how long the car has been running before I drive, I always get the noise on cold mornings. If it's warmer, no noise. This is my first winter with her, so I don't know what's normal and what's not.

Touareg :: 2005 V8 Making Squeal Noise While Driving That Actually Goes Away When Brakes Applied

Guys, my 2005 V8 is giving me the annoying sign (making a squeal noise while driving that actually goes away when I apply the brakes) that my pads are wearing out. "Just brakes" quote me $89 to change the pads. That sounds too good to be true.

Touareg :: High Pitched Squeak / Squeal Noise When Stopped With Foot On Brake

Reading thru all the squealing noise posts made me want to ask about mine. I have started to notice a high pitched squeal/squeak that occurs while sitting stopped with your foot on the brake...then let off the brake and take off and get this momentary squeak that doesn't continue (at least I can't hear it). It seems to stop once you get going again.

Seems to be coming from the passenger side front. I think I started noticing this after my most recent tire rotation and balance. What the brake wear indicator sounds like or if I will get an icon on the mfi when the brakes need service. The brakes do not squeal when in use. I currently have 27000 miles.

Chevrolet - Suburban :: Squeal / Groan / Clicking Noise Coming From Right Front Of Engine When Accelerating

2003 Chevy suburban, 115K miles, accelerating I hear a squeal/groan/clicking noise coming from right front of engine. Did not happen this winter, started again in spring. Loses power if stay on accelerator. If let off and then reapply, it will momentarily go away. Appears to be only when air conditioning on. Bad AC or just the pulley?

Touareg :: 2004 - Excessive Brake Squeal

2004 egg with excessive brake squeal? I have under 5k miles and it's pretty loud. My dealer is covering it, but VW refused to cover it as a warranty item. Even though I love my vehicle, I'm forced to agree with other posters that feel VW isn't ready to be a luxury vehicle provider. I don't think I'd have gotten that response from BMW, Lexus, Accura, or Mercedes.

When I step on the brakes during traffic & released it to roll the wheels, I hear the brakes squeaking a few rounds & then it will disappear. It sounds like the brake is still engage with the rotor & doesn't fully release until a few roll. This happens more during warmer days.

Touareg :: High Pitched Squeal From Right Front Wheel Well Area

I did a search for this symptom but didn't see anything that sounded right... High pitched squeal from right front wheel well area (sounds like a tea kettle actually).

Starts at 10+mph and is speed variable (faster=louder)... but not effected by applying the brakes (so doesn't seem to be related to the brake assembly)... It doesn't happen all the time... but getting more frequent... annoying...

wheel bearing?
air suspension?

What it could be?

Touareg :: Buzzing Noise Coming From The Engine Bay?

OK started getting a buzzing noise coming from the engine bay on the drivers side. Cant locate it from outside the car, only when sitting in the car stationary with the engine on. Does not do it from cold, only once the engine is warm. ie drive for 30 minutes, park up, run some chores for say 20 minutes, get back in car and then drive off, when i then say stop at some lights, i hear this buzzing sound (sounds like a pump or motor). Normally goes away after about 10/15 minutes. This started happened after last vist to dealership when they replaced my electric harness and also fixed some o rings on the water pump. Wondering if it is related to the last visit or something new maybe on the air suspension or what.

Touareg :: Rattle Noise And Vibration In Steering Column On Hitting Bumps

Went to pick up my Touareg tonight. Took it for a quick test drive and there was a noise and rattle coming from the steering column when you hit bumps. It sounded like metal on metal. The tech guy drove it with me and agreed something is wrong. They put it up on the rack but I left because I had been there for one hour and that was already past my mental limit for being in a car dealership. I didn't sign the paperwork. Told them to call me when they figure it out and I'll come back and buy it if the problem is not significant. Everything was going great until then.

Touareg :: 2004 - Weird Noise And Vibration Whenever Turn Steering Wheel

Lat week I dropped my '04 V6 Touareg off at my dealer for some minor warranty work. On the way to the dealer, I noticed a weird noise and vibration whenever I turned the steering wheel. I mentioned this to the dealer when I dropped the car off. They called me later saying that there was a leak in the steering rack and the whole thing needed to be replaced. The car wasn't safe to drive, so they would provide a rental.

Today, I get a call saying that the steering rack finally came in, but that upon installing it they noticed that something connectet to the steering or front suspension (I can't remember what it was, tie rod perhaps?) was bent, probably from hitting a pot hole, and that therefore the replacement would not be covered by warranty. Needless to say, this will not be cheap.

I do not take my Touareg off road, and I don't remember hitting any pot hole so hard that it could have bent something. My questions are:

- Is this a known or common problem/issue with Touaregs?
- Could hitting a pot hole or something a long time ago cause a leak many months later?

Touareg :: Brakes Squeal Loud Or Just A Slight Squeak At The End Of Braking Process

My Treg has about 3K miles on it right now, and since I picked it up, the brakes have squealed (some times VERY loud, some times just a slight squeak at the end of the braking process). It is currently in the shop for the second time to get a fix for this or an adjustment, and I just got a call from my service advisor telling me there is nothing they can do to quiet the brakes--it is the nature of brakes to squeak and squeal.

I realize that brake dust (and man, there is a lot of that on this vehicle) can make the brakes squeal a bit, but does it even make sense that they would tell me that brakes are supposed to squeal?

I am also having a sticking door handle and a defective ac/heat control issue looked at while the Treg is in (I can illuminate both the "auto" and "econ" buttons at the same time, instead of one switching the other off). Should a vehicle at this price point have noisy brakes?

Touareg :: Humming Noise Coming From Back Side At 80 Mph

There seems to be a humming noise coming from the back of the treg. It sounds like someone is tapping on a 10 gallon plastic bucket. This only happens when I'm doing 80 MPH. Yes, I know I'm breaking the the law. Still it's annoying. I have the radio off, I have mud and snow tire. Roof racks are on, both at the rear of the treg.

Elantra XD (2001-06) :: Steering Squeal Getting Worse - Quick Fix?

I have been hearing the squeal when turning wheel all the way to either side for a while. Recently I changed all drive belts (incl. steering). Squeal started to get worse and squeal when I turn the while just a bit while stopped or pulling in and out of parking spot. I tightened the steering and alternator belt and did not work. I flushed the power steering pump and added new fluid and still won't stop.

Does it mean need new pump or problem with rack? Or is there a possibility for some other "quick fix"?
