Rattle!!!

Hey everyone,

I need your help!!
Does anybody know where might this rattle come from?
We can even hear it on tape!

When I recorded it, I was on highway doing 60mph and my right wheels were hitting a raised pavement marker like this:

Please, help! It's a 2012 Rocco 2.0 TDI with 14000 km on the clock.
Have any of you had a similar rattle?

Sorry can't hear/see your recording. If you still in warranty ask to demo it to a tech at your dealer then leave them to it. If you demo it then they cannot just give it you back as they know the circumstances to replicate and test any repairs

It's not on 2-year warranty. Does VW usually give anymore than that? My Rocco is from 2012. I heard that if I do maintenance on VW, they give me 5 years. Is it true?

Outwith warranty, VW can offer goodwill at their discretion if the car has a full VW service history.

Well, my car is almost 3 years old with 14k km and VW only did one service, 4 months ago. It's almost new. Only has this stupid rattle. :(
