hey guys, i am facing this little problem with my golf 1.4. There is this squeaking noise whenever I hit the accelerator. After some googling, this seems to be a known issue. any of you guys facing this? I brought this back to the dealership and they can't seem to resolve this. Check out the following links and the video: http://www.golfmk6.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-5863.htmlhttp://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/f112/tsi-s...on-31066-6.htmlhttp://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DGdsaCDV...s_fKnvLpNUA4R9Qhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLu73I1QD7MTranslate this website to English : http://www.michaelneuhaus.de/golf6/golf6-probleme.htmThis post has been edited by mavric: Jun 10 2011, 06:06 PM |

QUOTE(Mavik @ Jun 10 2011, 04:35 PM) Guys when you send your VW babies to the VW Service Centers for servicing, make sure they don't put in too much engine oil  The fellas put too much in that my engine was sluggish. Brought the car to Exquisite Marques and they removed the extra oil out. About 1 litre extra. 15k already bro? yeah how much is just nice? and how much did the VW SC pour in? |

QUOTE(stalkerrox @ Jun 11 2011, 10:37 AM) alrites... cause i also saw recommended 38.. i wonder if that is too high? lol 38 psi? the recommended pressure at the fuel cover of my tsi says 2.3 bar all around for up to 2 person and light luggage. that's about 33 psi only. GTi's need more? what's a good tire pressure gauge/monitor to get anyway? |

QUOTE(jwrx @ Jun 11 2011, 11:54 AM) 38-41 is too high... 33 is recommended pressure i was also told to +4 psi to warm tires so if you've been driving around for a bit before you rolled into the petrol station, then you should pump 37 psi to meet the recommended 33psi |

QUOTE(phas3r @ Jun 11 2011, 03:39 PM) yeah gti's need more mk5 is 35 psi cold mk6 38 psi cold both allround and both with 2 passengers and light luggage how about driving alone? wow 38psi cold..that's quite a bit considering the max pressure indicated on the sidewall of my tire is 40 psi...if i a driver's been driving around a bit and need to pump some air and following the +4 psi guideline...wouldn't that be exceeding the 40psi max pressure stated on the tire sidewall? |
