If you have a 1.9TDI they aren't the most refined engine in the world but are stronger than the quieter 2.0TDI. You could possibly look at adding more sound deadening but as said you should probably look for a new car instead.

You're probably on the wrong forum for your question...plenty of posts here on how to get more noise from your intake or exhaust!

Try somewhere more appropriate

nothing you can do really, my mk5 is noisier than my mk4 was, and that was noisy enough
