Can anyone identify this noise?
« on: December 04, 2011, 03:46:47 pm »
Name that noise in 3 :)



I thought it was the cam follower but it's been changed and the noise it still there. It's had a full service and new cambelt etc and still there, any ideas at all please guys?
Car still drives as it should but it just sounds like a bloomin truck :)

Sounds normal to me, heard they're quite noisy engines due to the injection....

It sounds like a normal 2.0TFSI, but the slightly louder.

What oil has been put in? I noticed a difference going from normal quantum to quantum longlife III, seems to be quieter.

I'll take another vid when it's louder, it seems louder after a run. It's currently got quantum platinum I think.

Didn't check the cam for wear but will ask my mate who did it and see what he thought. Don't fancy the cost of changing the cam tho, sounds expensive.

Give Sanburn a try in Coventry, I'm sure they will be able to help. I was in there last week and I'm sure they were breaking a GTI then. :happy2:

Haha, it was Tuesday, the heavens had opened so I didn't pay much attention to it. There was 2 other lads waiting for the airbags off it!

not the same but i've got an A3 2.0T cover that i could be convinced to part with. with the exception of the removable panel on the top it's the same as the S3 and Golf R one

lemme know if you're interested. i was gonna keep it but as i say it's not doing me any good sat in my closet.
