Hi,
Yesterday I bought a mk6 golf, 59 plate, 1.4 tsi engine with just over 29,000 miles on. I admit I got the car a bit cheap (£6,150) but not the deal of a lifetime. Basically, when I'm crawling in 1st gear, or accelerating through 1st and 2nd gear, the car makes a weird noise, as if someone is pushing their finger round the top of a wine glass? And the vibrations run all the way through the car. Obviously I test drove the car and heard it, however after about 15 minutes I came to the conclusion it was the exhaust after having a friend sit in the car and throttle it. As of this morning I'm fairly certain it's coming from the front of the car and I'm absolutely clueless as to what it could be;
Any help or idea would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you,
JP
