Weird noise while rolling

Post by SickSneaky »

Hi all, I have a MY2011 Scirocco 1.4tsi CAVD with ~60k miles on it. Recently, I noticed some weird noise while setting off. I can hear it when the car is rolling, but at higher speeds it is unnoticeable. Noise is discontinuous, it is also present when I turn left at low speeds, almost stationary, I think it comes from the front of the car. I don't hear it always, but it keeps coming back. I jacked up the car, and checked every wheel for some bearing clearances (grabbed the wheel and moved it vertically) but i didn't feel any.

Here is a video of it:

Do You have any idea what it might be? Thanks for the help :)

Does it sound when you let off the throtle and when you step on it?

Yes it does. When I apply throttle just a little I can hear it too sometimes, but when i accelerate harder the sound is gone, or I can't hear it any more.
