I am noticing my 02 V6 4mo auto has a noise when slowing down lately. When I am coming to a complete stop at around 5mph I can feel/hear a thump like something is shifting into a lower gear, or mechanically shifting down. I don't think it is the transmission, had it serviced about 10-15k ago...

Engine thump, water collecting around battery, and check engine light This is my first time posting here, though definitely not my first time with engine light issues. Hoping you all might be able to shed some light on an issue(s) I'm having. I'm currently about 2,000 miles into a road trip...

Hey guys, I've been helping my buddy out with his (98 1.8t auto). We did changed his brakes (just rotors and pads) weekend before last. Everything seems to be fine with the brakes. But....just the other day, he noticed a thumping coming from the front end. I checked it out today and can't seem...

Hi All: I have a 2002 GLX with 70K miles. I've had a persistent "thump, thump, thump" coming from the front end for many years...almost as long as I've owned the car. Several dealers and a great VW mechanic have never wanted to deal with it, or didn't feel it was a safety issue, or maybe thought...

Great forum! I've popped in over the past month and received some really good advice. 2000 V6 4Motion ATQ pre-310000 VIN... with a parachute out the back. :) I've searched for this problem on all the threads, but only see two of them with any relevance. Whenever I accelerate/decelerate, I...

My 2000 Passat with 1.8 engine and automatic transmission has me stumped. Driving down the road, say at 40mph holding a cruising speed on level ground, no strain on engine, just easing along. If you let up on the throttle Sometimes the car will have a loud thump and jerk as though you hit...

I just changed the wheel bearing because it was making noise and I could feel it vibrating in the floor. I also had the front axles replaced about a year ago. But now after replacing the wheel bearing there is a thump,thump,thump noise only while driving between 22 and 28 mph. I would think it...

My key fob no longer opens all the doors, only the drivers? I can still stick it in the door handle and open all the doors, but remotely it will only unlock the drivers door. Also, my sunroof goes 'clunk' when it closes from the slide position. I can't tell what it's hitting though.

2000 Passat 1.8T Automatic Transmission. Last night driving home at around 70mph, I was startled by a loud bang/thump. :confused: I initially thought I had hit something. My rpm's seemed to immediately rise as if my transmission dropped out of 5th gear. At 60 mph my rpm's were at 4000 or...

Hi, 2003 V6 Passat automatic trans. The other day my wife was sitting at a light and the car started thumping. It wasn't in time or anything (her description). It's happened before at around 30mph when accelerating. I checked the motor mounts by lifting the hood, revving the motor, etc...

You like my description? :P That is what appears to be my transmission. It happens once in a while. I'll go to accelerate, my car doesn't go, and then *thump*, it goes into gear. Is this a transmission issue? Trans fluid level seems ok. Thanks

Hello everyone; I've noticed today that there is a bad thumping noise coming from my passenger front wheel well. It only happens when i go over speed bumps or pot holes. It sounds like i bottom out, but only that wheel. I truly have no idea what it is, but i know its not normal. My...

Hello everyone; I noticed today while I was driving into work that my transmission, I think, was thumping. I live in the great city of miami and the traffic here is :banghead: . It was stop and go traffic and when I would press the gas pedal to go faster from a slow idle, I feels like the...

Just took delivery of an 05 GLS. I'm putting a system together and need some advice. How much room does the JL Stealthbox take up? I noticed the space where it goes is perfect fit for golf clubs. Will My clubs still fit with the stealth box? As far as power goes, I had a 12" Alpine Type R in...

I have a 1.8T and noticed for the first time yesterday that after a cold start, I put the car in D and when I start to move (I think I step on the gas a bit when it happens), the car makes a slight thump noise - I can feel it in the pedal. It goes away on all subsequent starts and didn't happen...

Had my tires rotated this morning, front to back and now I'm getting a weird thump when I drive. Thump wasn't there prior to the rotation and I checked, I do not have a flat. Gonna take the car back to the tire shop after work. Any suggestions what the problem might be? TIA
