Above vehicle making the strangest vibrating/ nocking sound at cold start and when the engine is warm. Sounds like an engine rattle.
Any suggestions what it could be will be appreciated.
Volkwagen dealership in Hatfield Pretoria says it is normal but hard to believe. Will take it in again for further diagnosis.

Possibly timing chain clatter but noises are prety much impossible to diagnose over a forum. You have to hear them. Go to the trouble of contacting vw hatfield in randburg and ask for a guy by the name of morne lourens. Make an appointment to see him. If he tells you it is normal then it is.

Re: 2014 Golf 7 1400 tsi engine noise
If it does that when the car is idling and goes away when the clutch it's engaged - I've had that on my Golf 7 since 2013 when I bought the car. Was told it's normal after a very long process of trying to get it sortedpieter.d.oosthuizen wrote:Above vehicle making the strangest vibrating/ nocking sound at cold start and when the engine is warm.

I do not believe that.

I find it very irritating to be quite honest

Very disappointing experience - clip was not replaced - only cleaned. Engine sounds like before. Sound clip send to VWSA. No response from them yet. Here we go - good service received from Hatfield VW Pretoria. Hope they can help.
Will keep you posted
