Our 2021 gti club sport has just today started making something like this after Iv just shelled out for a new IQ headlamp costing nearly £1800

hello, have you figured out what the issue is? i have the same issue im my 88 300e, and you are the only person along with a miata who i can find with the same issue. If you can lt me know what it was for your car that would be great. Thanks!

Thanks!!!

And now did you find the problem? I have the same sound.. no body knows where to search for finding any problems

Its clutch chatter. Normal with upgraded flywheel.

Great video! It helped me replace my emergency brake lever.

Guys where do i get the screen on the ac

Thanks for this! I’m trying to find ways to relocate my USB aux from the factory location to the cigarette lighter. This video gave me useful context for how the console is assembled.

any conclusion?

Incredible that an beautifull and expensive car like this, have this engine noise problem, my old golf GTI mk3 93, engine, spin very quite

mechatronic

Thanks a ton buddy! My center console storage came lose a year ago and my dealer said they would probably have to rip the whole thing a0art to figure why it's not seating back in and you helped me fix in 15 minutes!

f@<% these pos cars, really though. I've got a 19 doing the same thing out of nowhere, pile o $#@+. I'm telling you, sick of this expensive piece of crap

could be the DMF if u have not upgraded to SMF

Hey it is exausth, sory for bad english, it is 100%

My mk7 started doing this same thing have you found any solutions yet?

Having a similar issue did you come right ?

Sounds like Rod knock :(

p̲r̲o̲m̲o̲s̲m̲ ✌️

Mines makes the exact same two the tick and the knocking it’s very low and sometimes when accelerating sounds like it’s spitting out air kind of like its diesel have 17 tsi Wolfsburg anyone else know what it is?

Huge help installing the Dieselgeek super pin! Nobody explained console removal this well, took 45min total! Thank you for this!!!

Most likely your alternator and pulley

What front brake calipers are those? Any links? Thanks.

Hard to tell over the video with the noise saturation. Sounds similar to a timing chain issue. Could be wrong though the injectors are loud. I know these engines tend to leak from the upper and lower timing covers, if gone un repaired this could possibly be a result. Hope you got it sorted out whatever it is/was.

Hi I have an audi s3 2017 and its making the same noise and lost power, the more i accelerate the high the noise goes. did you find a cause and solution to your golf?

Sounds like it’s coming from the transmission. If it’s manual I’d guess flywheel or maybe the slave cylinder .

But on a serious note it could be the flywheel

It's about to throw a rod bro

Throw out bearing?

Bad fuel injector

did you find issue

This was helpful, thank you for putting this out there! I had to replace the parking brake handle due to the button breaking off, and this made it a 1 hour job instead of $600 at the dealer. I didn't even need to remove the whole console, just releasing it and lifting it a few inches allows enough room to maneuver the lever in and out through the rear of the console.

Did you have any issues getting the little storage bit below the AC controls back in? I cannot seem to get mine to stay back in.

Awesome video

Very helpful . All I’ve seen is the one with electric e brake . I went halfway and didn’t want to brake anything so gave up . Now I will attempt . And this is coming from a pure diy freak ...

Helpful for sure, but wish you would document the whole disassembly.

To get to the cig lighter connector follow the actual wire to the shifter assembly. There's gonna be two clips that hold the wire harness to it. Remove those and it'll allow enough slack in the harness to pull the center console to flip and easily remove the cig lighter connector. But thanks for the video, really helped out alot.

Although you didn't take it out completely, your video was still spot on and accurate. Thank you for your contribution!

This is SOOO helpful! Thanks a bunch.

Thank you for your help!!! Thanks to your video I was able to do it yesterday. I have a BIG TIP for everyone else..... I removed the hand brake to make the whole process waaaayyy easier when you are trying to remove the center console. MAKE SURE YOU SECURE THE CAR/REAR WHEELS WITH SOMETHING BEFORE REMOVING THE HAND BRAKE. If not, the car will roll. (Mine is DSG and It happened to me haha 🤣) live and learn I guess.

Thank you for the post, really helpful, the instruction and camera works are great. I want to re-route my USB cable for AndroidAuto, so this video is what i have been looking for.

Dude, you saved me a whole lot of time and effort. I couldn’t find any other videos with handbrake. I needed to get to cup holder to fix the holding tabs that hug cups and this video gave me absolutely everything I needed. Thanks !!!

Good video!!! This helped alot. I still have to replace my hand break. So at least I know what I'm getting into..

I appreciate the mostly thankless work making such a video takes. It was a well intended effort. Especially as I couldn’t find anyone else describing how to do this, nor any free docs online. But I have to say it did not help me as I’m pretty sure you are missing a few steps. First, you can save your brake lever leather by slipping it off. But much more important is I can’t pull the console out as you described it. It started destroying the hole where the brake level rubs. Further I have a broken lever which is why I need to do this, so locking it back is not an option (it does move back, but the button is broken so it won’t lock) I’m thinking there’s a way to loosen the lever but I can’t tell how. Anyway after hours of work I’m going to reassemble and take to dealer anyway. Thought u should know in case you update for someone else. Thanks for the try

Thanks for the video and for the tips on avoiding scratching/breaking things! Where you able to see or get access to the AC evaporator doing this? I think my one has disintegrated.

I was hoping you would have actually pulled it apart. Good instructions, but seeing it would have been better

Your car is filthy as hell

Just got a Diesel Geek "Super Pin" for my MK7 GTI. Havent installed it yet but Im glad I came across your vid.....going to use it as a guide. Very informative..Thank you!! But man is that a lot of work to put this damn pin in! Jesus!! Worth it in your opinion?
