Strange Noise

My Scirocco TDI 170 DSG has been doing a weird sound:

It usually happens when I take my foot off the accelerator on both descending and plain roads, on 2nd gear around 1000rpm.. I've recorded some videos with it:

" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; -> You can hear it from 0:26+

" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; -> The same noise around 0:17.. and there's also another strange noise (I believe it derives from the same thing) around 0:38

Does anyone knows where's that noise from? I've been searching and searching and haven't found anything..


EDIT:

I've uploaded another one but unfortunately the audio is a bit bad. However, it's still audible:

" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; -> From 0:09~0:10 and from 0:18

I would suggest take it to the dealer to check - under warranty still?

I've already done that, dealer saw the videos and updated DSG Software but the issue remains unfortunately. I guess they couldn't replicate the issue.. warranty ends in June :(
I'll check another dealer in some days.. I no longer trust the dealer I went, I also have some sort of pop noises when turning (either left or right) and they also say it's normal :mad:

I think I might have something loose on the left side and that's what is causing the noise..
