MkV Creaking Interior noise from around centre console and centre tunnel
« on: June 15, 2009, 12:29:05 am »
While driving along bumpy roads it is most apparent

Hard to locate, but while it's creaking during driving, if I hold up the knee rest centre console it reduces somewhat.

Anyone know how to tighten this up or have other suggestions?

 

Thanks

Well as it's an R are you sure it's not the road itself creaking under the weight?

:signLOL: - Very good!

I think you can be forgiven for saying that because you have a .:R :grin:

We all have such different wants and expectations from our GTI's - Some are bothered by every single creak. I expect that a Mk6 or an Audi would be more satisfactory for those folks. But if you want to and can solve such sounds, then all is well and good.
