    2015 Gti manual clunk noise?

    Just took the mrs 2015 polo gti out and noticed there is a noise between the gear changes that wasn't there when i last took it for a spin.

    Anyone else have a clunk noise between changes and also when accelerating and decelerating in the same gear?

    Sounds like a worn drive shaft to me on older cars, car only has 3000k on it.

    Could you try to record a video of it or a sound clip or something? Could be a multitude of issues.

    Its booked in for the 22nd... Will let all know what it is.

    Its a mechanical clunk of varying loudness depending on speed and speed of clutch engagement, i can't imagine just a switch causing this sort of sound.

    Could be your FMM (Front motor mount) or RMM (Rear motor mount) some manual geared engines during quick shifts move a lot so the mounts may not be adequate for the demand.

    Well there noise changed to a dull grinding sort of noise then stopped making a noise at all, pretty annoying as I want to know what it was..... The tech who had a look at the gearbox and driveshafts couldn't find anything wrong.

    Mine is making the exact noise, usually at lower revs building up to about 3-4k. Mine is manual and has about 3,300 kms on the clock. Taking it in on 17.08.2015 anything worth mentioning to the dealer?
