Hi all, recently my car started making this horrible noise when moving off, forwards or reverse, but only once the car is fully warmed up, when cold it's just like a new car. It's been at the dealers for a couple of days and they reckon it's the flywheel, VW want photos before deciding if it's covered under my extended warranty, I'm praying it is 🙏 Just wondered if anyone else has had this problem or heard of it happening before please? 20230912_155326.mp4

Thank you very much for the links, I'll have a look through before I go back for a 2nd drive at the weekend. Do you think if it's a DSG issue we should steer clear or is that something that can be adjusted/sorted out? Thanks again for your help

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but can anyone point me to other threads about the 1.5 EVO engine please? I test drove a T-Cross auto today, when moving away from a stop it felt like a jolt, then 1st gear sounded like it was revving very high before a jolty change into 2nd gear, after that everything was smooth as can be, the further upshifts and downshift, no problems at all, just the move off/1st/2nd issue. The car has only done 6500 miles, June 2021 registered, 1 owner and immaculate condition, but this issue is putting me off buying it, any ideas on the cause/fix, I read on another forum that thee was an extensive thread on here about it but this is the only one I can find in the search. I also drove a 1.5 EVO Taigo auto and that was smooth as anything, so I guess that it's a T-Cross problem which may be fixed in newer models? Any help or advice gratefully received.

My GTI+ has gone in today for the weighted bolts to (hopefully) cure the loud mooing noise when reversing, I'll give it a week of usage before I will happy it's fixed...... Update - It's fixed! Unbelievable such a simple fix, that's a known issue/fix on other vehicles, has taken 3.5 years but glad it's done now.
