    Just Superb

What's worse is VW warranty only covers rattles up to 1500km. After that, you are on your own! And I thought the B7 was a lot better screwed together than the B6 during test drive!

    Just wonder, for those of you who already own a Superb, wagon and sedan, including those who recently took delivery, does Superb rattle and squeaks like the Passat? or are they as refined as Lexus?

    I'm still waiting for mine to come in January...

    No squeaks or rattles. 1.250 Kilometes and one week old. Love the car. Exceptional build quality. Just wished more accessories were available!

    2009 125 TDI now has 69800kms and it has had rattling door speakers since I bought it at 11800kms.
    Dash has had intermittent squeaks the whole time.
    However it is a darn good car!

    MY2013 103 TDI 4x4 Elegance Wagon - 9000km in 7 weeks and the dash creaks above the nav unit.
    It started with a loud crack, then a noise like a nut rolling around. Now the dash just creaks but I have noticed recently that as the climate control does its thing there is a noise like a sticky vent or valve with a "crack" noise. Its not like the Mk5 golf "tap, tap, tap" noise associated with the climate control just a single "crack" noise every couple of minutes.
    I'm trying to get it booked in for warranty but was wondering how common this is.

    Thankful for any advice.

    I was suspicious as to why someone would sell a car with such low km on it, now I know why. Mine has more rattles than a jar full of marbles and an engine that sounds like a diesel tractor. I want to love this car so much more but I actually avoid driving it. To their credit VW service here did manage to subdue (not eradicate) a rattle from the fuel line but the squeaks, rattles and thunks are driving me up the wall.
