Re: Wiper Blades

My wipers are shit!

We get alot of rain up here in the north east so me and the smear are quite acquainted.

Think it may be a long time before a viable solution is ready!

Re: Short whistling sound when accelerating...

I really do sympathise with you rhcp128, that noice is certainly not NORMAL...It is VERY ANNOYING :cry: ! It sounds like the car is f*cked more than anything else. I think that everyone who has this problem should continue to complain to their VW dealership, explaining that your not at all happy wit...

Re: Short whistling sound when accelerating...

I think it may be a while before a solution is finalized, I dont think VW actually know where the noice is coming from themselves. Hope I'm wrong though!

Will be interesting to see what Mr. VW says on Monday when he gives my car the once over, fingers crossed!

Re: Short whistling sound when accelerating...

The noice definitely occurs when the foot goes down after shifting!

My car is the dealership on Monday for a check up on the noice, I will let you know if there is any new developments!

Re: Short whistling sound when accelerating...

I did, he explained that I had nothing to worry about and that VW said it was a natural sound from the car and nothing could be done about it.

Everything else about my roc is fab bar this.
