noisy

Have been told that this engine is noisy in the Xl. Has anyone got any experience of this? Steve

Hi, Has anyone experienced an excessive amount of noise from an induction kit/turbo when starting from cold?? It only lasts about a minute and then the throttle settles down. I expect the throttle to raise slightly on cold start but the noise is a bit of a concern. :confused:

Hi guys, The wipers on my 1999 1.9Tdi (SE) are bloomin noisy. They don't squeak or chatter, but clunk at the top and bottom of the travel. :think: I've just changed the blades to valeo silencio aero type ones, but it's just as noisy!(They do a lovely job of wiping though...) This a...

Has anyone else got this problem. When I drive along a road which isn't very smooth, my car really rattles inside. Sounds like most of its coming from the doors & the dash. Can anyone suggest a cure cos its drving me mad?

3 questions..... 1) the two air blowing fans in the centre of my dash are noisy as hell when i turn the air con up, instead of making a soft whirring noise they make a sort of flapping noise, anyone any ideas what this could be? 2) my air con doesnt really come out cold and i reckon it...

My 16V is running and pulling well, but christ it sounds a bit rough. especially if you open the bonnet and rev it from the engine bay. It sounds as if the chain drive, or head or something is loose/worn. Its done 85K to be fair, but i am sure that the 16v should sounds a bit smoother...

I got my car back yesterday after having a Helix autosport clutch / single lightened flywheel and Quaife diff fitted, car feels much better now but.... When the clutch pedal is up it sounds like a tractor, the noise goes when the clutch pedal is down. This only seems to be a problem at under...

Hey all, went to see an 06 pre facelift 1.9 TDI PD biza and found that it was a bit noisy. It had no engine cover as my FR petrol does but other than that box standard engine. Your views? Thanks

Any one had this problem and know what the problem is? It seems when i start my car from cold the fans cut in and make a really loud like buzzing noise. Sounds like the bearings have gone in the fans at the front but aint really to sure. The noise is definatly the fans because i can switch...

Has anyone else suffered form a noise that sounds like a ball bearing in the dsshboard or air vents? I have and it is pee'ng me right off. any ideas.

As title really. Really pleased with the 2.0TDi Stylance. Love the style, really like the interior, nice touches like the wipers, rear door handles, red & white illumination etc. :D It goes very well, plenty of power and reasonably economical but must say you can certainly tell it's a diesel...

Anybody Got Any Advise On How To Mess Up A Neighbours Customised Exhaust System. Very Noisy At 2am At Refuses To Keep The Revs Down. Is There Anything That I Can Stick In The Pipe? Help

Hi All I Am Gettin Tortured By A Neighbour Who Drives A Car With A Customised (noisy) Exhaust. Can Anybody Advise Me On A Way Of Sortin The F...ing Thing Out. Is There Anything I Can Stick In The Pipe? Help

Guys, I've done a quick search but can't find any info. Can someone help me please? I've had my LCR a week now and have noticed a very obvious 'whirring' noise (kinda like a radiator fan) when the A/C is on. The noise is the same no matter how fast the airflow. When the A/C is off the...

I've read elsewhere (other posts on here) that EGR's sometimes fail, could i ask if one was to fail that it would cause a sort of blowing exhaust type of noise ?. For some time now, mine has made a sort of gruff exhaust noise that just doesn't seem right, more so under load and when the engine...

Hi, Got a bit of a problem :think: Started getting a roaring noise under power & thought it was exhaust blowing. Stopped & had a good look but no blowing at all with full revs. Got back on road & noise was a lot worse under pressure & sounds like high pitched turbo woosh. Noise gets...

Have any of you guys with big brake conversions..drilled & grooved discs noticed an increase in noise since fitting ? The reason I ask is that since installing my ECS brakes my Leon is making a noise much like a wheel bearing going down, I am sure it wasnt there before I did the conversion...

Hi, I've been to JBS today and James pointed out that he though the noise from my turbo was excessive. He described it as though it sounded like it had an induction kit on it (which it doesn't). When accelerating it makes a loud sucking in noise, and if you lift of you get a "woosh"...

I had the cambelt changed on my car 3 days ago. Got it back and drove it to work yesterday. When the car is at standstill, there is a belt whirring noise. When the engine is revved, the whirr increases in pitch and it gets drowned by the noise of the engine. This cannot be right. Like fan...

Got an AutoGauge boost gauge, most of the time its nice and silent but when on full boost around 20psi it makes a rattle/buzz noise. Just wondered whether all gauges do this or is it because this is a cheaper gauge?
