Polo 6R TPI list

tsi_dan, would you be able to pm me when gavs gets back to you. have suspected this for a while but never thought to do anything as not a mechanical "problem", just a little annoying.

Not sure what the TPI is for this but I know that it is included in the 24v9 service campaign. If you have the rattle and they haven't done it ask them to do it. It should be done as part of the normal 15/30/45 etc service.

It only stops the rattle on sharp acceleration though. When the revs are below 1200 it will still rattle regardless - just a faulty design using an electronic wastegate actuator

And the noise is purely annoying. The part of the 24v9 service campaign that is important is the ECU update which patches a bug in the software where in some cases (from what I has seen - when using a lot of engine breaking down a hill) the electronic actuator passes the pre defined points set and the computer notes it as a fault and it jams it open and the car goes into limp mode and you have no boost

I ran the sound actuator diagnosis detailed in the actuator TPI, (it works in 11.11.6 but not the 12.10.4 beta) and its really trippy knowing there's an actual speaker in there doing a frequency sweep. It runs a little too fast though and doesn't really stick to the low, rattle causing frequencies. There is some rattling if I don't press down on the plastic under the wipers while the sweep run though, not sure if that's enough for a dealer to go through with the work. We shall see...

There is a new software update 4560 for the DSG gearbox. shifting from 1-2 is much smoother than the 3640 software

Guys I cleaned up this thread as most of this discussion is more relevant in the problems register or as separate threads.

Hi Kevin, do you have details on when these two were released? Are these for the 6R or the 6R facelift ?
