Weird noise?!
« on: April 27, 2012, 11:36:57 pm »
Hey guys heard a weird noise sounded like metal on metal the car was going at rolling speed around 5mph and sounded like something was scraping. Checked under the car but couldnt see anything. Could it be the engine? Any ideas?!

I'm sure somebody posted a problem just like your's and it turned out to be a small stone stuck behind the caliper or something like that!Oh here it is!

How strange that this has come up so often in the last week  :confused:

I'd not heard of this in 6 months of being in the Forum, and I can think of 4 or 5 cases in the past few days.

It's like something out of...

I've had the old stone wedged between the disc and guard a few ties over the years, almost always on the rear axle.
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)
