Title: Clicky indicator stalks
Post by: GTI_UK on September 03, 2012, 11:33:25 am

This is going to be difficult to describe (hence search didn’t prove fruitful) – but my indicator stalk makes an cringing click and almost feels like it doesn’t want to move. Rather than a soft smooth ‘tick’.

Is this a common with the GTI/ Mk5? What’s the cure?

Bad description or does no one else have this issue?

Is there any resistance when you move the stalk, like it's caught or sticking?

There does seem to be - been there since I bought the car. I expect there be a little but I'd be surprised this is how it was designed.

i think they all have this, i can't say that i hear it when using the indicator.
