Evening.

Can you help identify this noise coming from my 2016 GTD DSG please! When the car is cold, i.e first thing in the morning on my journey to work, the car makes a rattle / rumble as it decelerates to come to a stop. It only does it when the car is in drive, doesn't do it when it's in neutral and is freely revving up.

You'll have to turn your audio up quite loud to hear it, apologies for the rubbish filming. The noise happens as the car decelerates at around 7 seconds but is more obvious around 15-17 seconds as the car slows down. You'll hear a rumble / grumbling noise coming from the engine. Any ideas folks?

Come on Dave, it's driving me mad!!! :)

14-17 seconds you can hear it but you'll need to have the volume really loud

Can hear it on my iPhone, sounds like my old mk4 golfs DMF rattling- air box ?
Can you hear it with the bonnet up when revved ?
I noticed the engines cold, does it do the same when warm ?
It should still be in warranty so let VW have listen

No mate, when the car is revved up in neutral there is no noise. And as the car warms up it disappears.

What did you mean by air box?

Oh and the car has done just over 60,000 miles so it's out of warranty with Volkswagen unfortunately
