New Karoq TSI rattle sound!
Posted: Tue Jan 07, 2020 8:28 pm
Hello friends!
I recently bought a Skoda Karoq 1.5 TSI and have this annoying and weird rattle inside the cabin when the engine is idle. It usually starts after 2-3 minutes after the engine is working.
Informed the dealer of course and he suggested to wait 1000-2000km as the car is still new. Now have 1.5k and the noise is still present.
- I don’t seem to hear it coming from the engine while listening carefully with the hood open.
- I saw online that people had similar noise / issues with the transmission (manual) and the noise disappears when the clutch is pressed. Mine is still there.
- It doesn’t stop once the engine gets fully heated (90C) and even after a normal drive (20min).
Here is a video of the sound (please use headphones if possible) and you can noise doesn’t start immediately and I also at the end increase the revs briefly to show that it goes away than reappears when idle:
Did somebody encounter this problem? Is it normal for a TSI engine?
Thanks in advance!
