when im in any of my six gears i've noticed that when i lift off the accelerator i get a little "tick tick" almost as if somethings moving back into place.. could this be one of the engine/gearbox mounts? obviously its going to be hard to tell as i cant get it to do it just my revving in neutral. only happens when the cars under load.

its a phase 2 gti6

thanks in advance for any ideas as to what it could be.

Sounds like the onset of a crack in the chassis engine mount.

See my thread for the repair proceedure.

the other thing that crossed my mind was a hole in the exhaust manifold, (its almost that kind of sound) but it would probably do it even when reving out of gear? just an idea

as daveyboy said...engine mount is knackered...and yes you will need to support the engine when taking the mount off

I get the occasional tick when I reverse I have looked at my lower engine mount and it looks a little tired so I will be replacing it.

You could always get someone to load the engine up in first gear using the clutch bite with the hand break on whilst you look at the engine. There shouldn't be too much movement but if there is then that's your problem.

Hope this helps

Matt
