Hello there.
I have gti 2011 model - 32k miles.
I started hearing noise with vibrations from around 1 month. But it has got worse now.

I have taken it to one dealer. He drove with me at low speed (~35) for about a minute and told me the reason is definitely flat spots on the tire. The threads are really could and could still go another 10k, he said it won't be a problem. I don't have to change. But gave me an estimate of 1000+$ for tires, balancing, mounting and alignment. I'm still skeptical.
Any idea about this from anyone?
Thanks in advance.
btw, going to a second dealer today.
