03 beetle: Noise after stop
03 new Beetle Turbo
48k After coming to a complete stop after going approx. 40+ mph, there is a strange motorized noise that comes from the trunk. It is kind of a "winding down" sound followed by a thunk. The noise is similar to the noise the trunk makes when it opens, minus the thunk. Any ideas? |
RE: 03 beetle: Noise after stop
Shanda let me know when you find out. alderete74@yahoo.com
Here are my circumstances I just bought a 2002 VW 1.8 Turbo Auto Beetle76K . If I haven't applied the brakes for a period of about 10 Min and then brake I get this strange noise from the rear of the car when I am almost at a complete stop. The noise sounds like a windshield wiper making a pass with no water on the windshield. It lasts about two seconds. If I were to brake immediately after the noise it will not repeat itself until after about another 10 min with no braking, then it returns. It happens ONLY when I push the brakes. The pads are at 60%, the rotors are smooth to the eye and touch, the bearings are also ok. I also checked the trunk/spare to make sure there wasn't something moving around. Could it be the ABS sensor or a caliper going out? Your thougths on this are greatly appreciated Greg |
Perfect
