paulj1 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Hi my tt seems to have developed an annoying squeak but it only does it under about 1800 rpm and only when slowing down and when i lift the bonnet up with the car at idle its gone even if i rev it slightly. best way to describe the noise is like a bike chain in need of some oil. It isn't very loud you can only hear it with windows down. Any help would be greatly appriciated as its my daily drive Thanks Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
