    My GTI MK6 started to squeak two weeks ago over bump. Great first the rattling and now the squeak. It is not the $50K car I expected. Also at one stage my reverse camera displayed a distorted image. It only could be reset when turning the car off and on again. I have taken a photo of it with my phone. I will let VW know when I am taking it in for a service 8 months from now.

    I have heard the rattling is from a flood gate but what is that? Why is it less rattling when more people sitting in the car?

    It's the actuator rod for the turbo waste gate, not a flood gate

    Please refer to the MK6 GTI - Rattle upon acceleration thread for discussion on that topic.
