Hey guys, recently I did some work on my car to replace the flywheel. Upon starting and driving it for about 5 kms and returning home, I noticed a very loud ticking sound from the engine bay as I reversed into the driveway.

Upon further investigation, the noise seems to be coming from the ACF. I have owned this car for 2 years and had never heard this noise before, is th

Hey guys, greetings from New Zealand :)

I've just replaced my DMF and noticed a strange buzzing noise coming from the trans pump housing while test starting it on the lift. Does anyone know if this is normal? I've never noticed it before.

I did try to disconnect my battery for an hour but that didn't help.

Only asking as I don't have access to vag com or any other code reader, maybe if its happened to someone before?

Just an update had the standard downpipe fitted on for the mot and passed no issues. Now at 140k miles I’m debating whether to throw some money at it or sell up and possibly import a mk7 from Japan.
Keep us updated on your decision about a Mk7. It'#039s something I'#039ve thought about

Interested!
I'#039m planning to do a full suspension refresh as soon as the weather gets better. Not sure about parts as well. I will try to go OEM as possible but just like you said Meyle offers HD parts for which I'#039ve heard some good stuff.

Re: How to: repair 3 door sliding seat problem
Last Poster: johnsimister in How to Guides / Troubleshooting on January 30, 2025, 05:06:13 pm
Several years since the last post, I've just fixed this seat sliding problem on my Golf. Those plastic cable guides are quite a lot more expensive now but it's great to have people getting into the back seat easily again.

Many thanks for a brilliant write-up.

This model doesn't have carplay but has spotify. It's actually 3x more than it cost me to get a rns 510.


Re: Fitting Mk7 Front/Rear Alloy hubs to Mk5

I think adjustable ball joints would be overkill for my 170bhp Diesel.

I'#039m mainly doing this to get unsprung weight back to what it was (following the addition of the Mk7 R Brakes) and my steel hub carriers are flakey and rusty. Trying to keep it a little bit VW OEM, but adjustable ball

Yes the question was if the result was good enough, I had the opportunity to drive GOLF 8 R and listened also the MK7 GTI CS and I like the "unexpected" pops while a deceleration but for the MK5 that I hear.. the "pops and bangs" are different/too much haha.


Re: Fan always on even when car hasn't been used

Pretty certain that's not the case.

I was concerned adding the Xenons with cable adapters had caused some sort of voltage issue.

I had problems with my DSG shifting randomly on a regular basis in D mode last year. This was in my well serviced and looked after stock 08 MK5 gti. It was randomly changing down from 5th to 4th or even 3rd when not necessary and driving me nuts. I was regularly using the manual shift option for smoother gear changes.

Hello, I'#039m new to the forum and I have a golf 5 2.0tfsi axx and the problem is that when it heats up to 90 it makes a grinding sound and you will see from the photo above that the pressure in the rail increases to 120bar, it is at idle and when this occurs nbsp problem in motion the car starts pulling and can'#039t rev more than 3k.
