Morning all.

Have a new issue I thought I would run by you to see if anybody has had similar....

2021 Enyaq 60 with 110k miles.

Have recently had starting a 'clicking' noise when moving away from a standing start and then when breaking. Almost sounds like a relay opening/closing. Strangely enough, if you pull away VERY slowly, it does not do it.

Car is at the dealer for a number of issues but, on this one (no diag done by 5 on Monday but completed by 11 yesterday), it has been declared as a major job requiring 10 hours of labour to power down, remove gearbox and carry out repair. All very vague at the moment and have asked for a breakdown of parts required.

Quote for the repair is £3,300 !!!

My initial enquiry is whether anybody has had similar please??

If this needs to be done, then so be it, but a bit miffed that a 4 year old car with (relatively) not high mileage, requires an expensive repair like this !!

Will add to my post if/when I get an update of requirements....

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Sounds very much like the drive shaft splines need to be re-glued. (Yes! Glued!)

I've had MEB cars for over 5 years and this issue has been raised a number of times on various forums. There is a clicking sound from the rear when moving off (forward or reverse) and when going over to full re-gen. The splines on the drive shafts have movement caused by the adhesive used on them failing. All cases I've heard about have been covered by warranty or extended warranty. Worth a Google.
