Hey guys,
My dad has a 2012 golf/jetta sportwagon and for a while now I notice (mostly cold start) it has a rattle that sounds like the timing chain on startup. The same noise is present when driving around and it shifts to higher gear (low rpm) with some load or if a/c is running.
It definitely sounds like the chain, but I'm wondering if anyone else has this noise and if it's nothing to worry about. Gonna get the dealer to take a look at his next oil change, but I suspect "No fault found".
It's an Auto, and has about 50,000 km's (~31k miles).
Thanks,
Mike
