I have a 2011 Mk6 GTI. I replaced the cam chain & tensioner a few months ago,but i still hear like a chain noise rattling when taking my foot off the petrol.
is the oil pump chain & intermediate chain & guides prone to give issues?

Re: 2.0 TSI GTI Mk6 Chain Noise
Are you sure you aren't hearing the actuator rattle. This is fixed with a turbo clip from vw.
You will hear like a tick tick noise as the revs come down till about 2000k

Re: 2.0 TSI GTI Mk6 Chain Noise
I get exactly the same. Bought a 2012 G6GTI. Has always been doing this. I thought it was normal....
Good to hear i am not the only one. Is it something to be worried about?

Re: 2.0 TSI GTI Mk6 Chain Noise
Mine has the same sound. Someone once mentioned that you need to replace the guides for the chain to get rid of the sound.

Re: 2.0 TSI GTI Mk6 Chain Noise
I take it you didn't replace the guides when you had the chain and tensioner replaced?
