    Rattle in 1st gear with apr 1+ installed..

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I've had the Apr 1+ ecu upgrade and the TT 225 injectors installed for about 6 months. Starting about a week ago, there is a slight rattle around 3-4000 rpm's. Sometimes I notice it in 2nd gear but it's clear that it is there in 1st.

    I still have the stock Div, could this have anything to do with that? Could it be a turbo issue?

    Just wondering if anyone else has heard of this..

    Bad snub mount maybe?

    Gotta remember that with the 1+, weak points will start to be exposed now.

    OEM DV
    Snub mount
    Coil packs
    OEM brakes (sort of)

    list could go on...

    It could be the heat shields under the car. Look at the exhaust, I had a loose bolt on my cat/down pipe and it was making a rattle at 3k-4k range. The exact same thing your experiencing.

    Good luck
