Golf V R32 :: Clunk Noise Coming From Right Front After H&R Springs Install
My R's only got 5,400 miles on it and I just lowered it Saturday on H&R Springs and when I turn my steering wheel like 3/4 either way it makes like a clunk noise at lower speeds only....any other part besides strut top mounts and bearings? It sounds like its coming from the right front.
View 9 RepliesGolf VI R :: Loud Clunk Coming From The Front Shock Area
So after a few months of having these springs on the car I noticed that as of recently there is a loud CLUNK coming from the front shock area. This specifically occurs in the morning while backing up out of the driveway, after the car has been sitting for a long time. This happens at low speed as soon as i turn the wheel to align with the street. To make matters worst, there seems to be a more persistent noise coming from the rear whenever i go over any sort of rough surface, almost as if something is loose . I took it to my local VW to see if they could replicate the noises and they did. I did not mention I had springs on the car (VWR), should I have ? What could be causing these issues?

I have a 1998 F150 with a 4.6 engine and is a 4x4 now the other day when I was backing out of the garage I heard a clunk noise and it seems like it is coming from the right front, so I tried it going forward it made the same noise but not as bad. There is no road noise and all the u joints are good and tight, the noise was when I gave it a little gas. My question is the front cv u joint would this make the noise? And what about the hub? What is the proper why to check the CV joint and the hub? The noise was when I was in 2 wheel drive.

So I was searching around online and it seems this thing happens to some ppl after lowering their cars. I'm getting a loud pop/clunk noise from the front left side only. Seems that's the most common place ppl are having this type of issue with. What it could be? My mechanic wont be able to look at it till Friday. So not sure on what to do. The sound only happens when I'm hitting bumps on the road.

View 8 RepliesGolf IV R32 :: Removed Front Sway Bar Endlink / Double Clunk Noise Vanished
So I'm backing out of my driveway today and I hear the loudest (in one of my cars) double clunk noise ever, coming from the passenger side front. Turns out one of my kw v2's decided it wanted to try and come apart at that corner.
Note: I had one side on a jackstand and could not find the cause until I removed the front swaybar endlink. It was putting tension on the arm and not allowing the movement to be found.
The shock insert inside the coilover body was moving up and down about a 1/8 inch clunking at the top and bottom of its travel. This is the retainer that loosen causing the clunking. I found that the spanner wrench from my dewalt angle grinder, fit the retainer well enough to tighten it down snug.
Passat (B5) :: 2003 1.8T - Clunk Coming From Front Passenger Side
2003 Passat 1.8T, 53,000 miles. There's a clunk coming from the front passenger side so I jacked the car up today and checked it out. Not much play at all when I moved the wheel. Tie rod ends look good, CV boots are intact, control arm bushings look good........except for one. The outer bushing on the passenger side lower rear arm is cracked. I assume this means I should replace that arm?
View 5 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: Humming Noise Coming From Front
I have these in 225/40R-18 on VW Goal rims (MkVI GTi). Last month I hit a nice size pot hole and put a very small bend in the outer lip of the right front rim. No mark on the rim, so the tire took the hit. Had a peak inside and the tire was bruised pretty good. Around this same time I noticed a faint humming that seemed to be coming from the front. Figured an inner ply shifted so I replaced that single tire (10,000 on the others).
So the humming is still there and getting a little louder. I've rotated a couple times but the sound is the same. Non-distinct location; seems like it could be coming from all 4 corners.
Golf IV R32 :: Squeak Noise Coming From Front Of Car?
I have a squeaky noise coming from the front of my R. Here is a recording from inside my garage: [URL] .....
A few observations:
- I would say it is coming from the belt on the left side, but I can't narrow it down
- It doesn't sound like the hamster wheel sounds I've seen in the archives, but I haven't ruled it out
- It doesn't change when the clutch is depressed
- It tends to go away after a 30+ minute drive
Golf V R32 :: Wobble Noise Coming From Right Front
Couple of days ago I started hearing a wobble noise coming from the right front. Almost sounds like a worn wheel bearing. Driving the car there is no signs of misalignment, and unbalanced wheels. Haven't hit any curbs or large potholes.
View 15 RepliesGolf IV R32 :: Clunking Noise Coming From Front End When Going Very Slowly
Ive had a weird annoying clunking noise coming from the front of my car going very slowly you can hear it or just by sitting still turning the wheel. It also appears while braking a clunking noise as the weight shifts.I replaced all control arm bushing, cv joints, and ball joints. The only other thing I could imagine is tie rods so I got under the car and had my gf turn the wheel its not coming from the outer tie rod ends but towards the middle? I am curious if maybe its some time of bushing towards the middle.

Brought the car to the dealership and have been told that it needs 2 new cooling fans. Radiator damaged and some wiring component needs to be replaced to the bottom line price of $1200. Would I do better repairing this type of fix at a non VW shop?

View 1 RepliesGolf IV R32 :: Knocking Noise Coming From The Front Passenger Area
Just picked up my BMP R32 last week. The car is MINT, only 25k on her, seriously probably one of the cleanest, stock mkiv r32's left. I got every single service record since brand new, all done by a Volkswagen dealer.
Only problem is, a knocking noise has just started to develop, coming from the front passenger area somewhere. It is only noticeable when I brake or let off the gas after accelerating, but definitely more noticeable when braking. At first I thought it was something rolling around in the door, but now it seems clearly suspension related, or a loose bolt or something?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2002 - Clunking Noise Coming From Front End
Ok so im going to try my best to explain this. Last week my passenger side motor mount broke the bolt snapped off and my engine fell on the ground and cracked the oil pan, too make a long story short someone put the wrong bolt in it and I fixed it with the right bolt. When the engine fell and the pan cracked i immediately shut the car off and coasted to the side of the road. I checked all bolts on the car to see if anything was loose but nothing was. But now when i start to take off i hear a clunk from the front end and i do not know what it is or could be. It is not the axles there is two brand new ones in it and have been checked. What it could be?
Car is a 2002 MK4 Jetta Wagon 2.0 .....
Golf V R32 :: Clanking Noise Coming From Front Left Wheel When Going Around 10 Mph
I just put on some new wheels and tires (19" VMR RS4 reps) and there is a weird clanking noise coming from the front left wheel when I am going around 10 mph. It doesn't happen when I'm moving faster, but I have checked it out and don't see anything rubbing or hitting any metal pieces. Could it be the suspension or something else? I haven't heard it around any of the other wheels.

So i have had my r now for a lil under 2 weeks, just noticed a strange noise, seems to be coming from the front drivers side, its a low whine/hum, almost like a pump or small motor is running and is very similar to when you use your wiper fluid. the noise is only present when the engine is cold and typically only does it two to three times while stopped. Just seeing if this is a normal thing, never heard anything like this on my previous vw.
