q3 rattle noises

[Sethvalor]

Hi All;

I own a 2015 facelift Q3 1.4 tfsi a

With a 6 gear Stronic

I have been hearing some rattle noises from the car.

I dont know if they are normal or not. I would be glad if you can share your toughts.

First of all, there is a rattle noise coming from gearbox on bumpy roads. I knew this issue from DSG7 but did not know 6 gear Stronic also have it. Is this normal or is there a problem?


Rattle 2:
This rattle noise comes when the car is in 2nd gear and while accelerating or right after accelerating. Or right after changing gear.
You can hear a rattle noise like "TIRRRRRRRR" between 3th and 6th seconds of the vide. You must really listen carefully.

As if the gerbox gets it self ready for the next gear but it is very noisy.



Rattle 3:

This is the third rattle. This haapens when the car is on load and rpm is low.

You can hear a metallic rattle. Clearly audible between 15 to 17 seconds.



Thank you for your help.

Not quite sure what could be but for sure there's something wrong...for sure its something with the gearbox. If I were you I would take it to the dealer right away to put it on the warranty.

Hi :) Thanks for reply.

I took the car to dealer 2 times.

I have been told that the sound is normal :/

But the most important thing, they claim that the 6 gear Stronic is not WET type transmission, both the dealer and the distributor in Turkey told me that the transmission in 2015 q3(facelift) is a dry type dsg.

I am very suprised becuase I made a searh in internet about DSG, as if I know nothing which infact I know quite much about DSG's, but I could not find a single article confirming the information given by distibutor.

Never heard about it. You can maybe ask for some advice on the VW dealership to double check...I have never heard about wet or dry DSG.

Sorry to hear, my wife's is very solid, no rattles at all @ 22K miles.
