    My GTI did that, it was low on oil. I replaced it with Redline MT90. That shut it up real good.

    stick with G52 in ur tranny - here's why... - Page 7 - TDIClub Forums
    I think you are after a 75-90 that meets the spec of GL-4.


    It would be worth checking the exact specs for the Bora box, it may differ to the Golf.
    MK4 GTI - Sold
    MK5 Jetta Turbo - Sold
    MK5 Jetta 2.Slow - Until it dies.
