Hi,

Any ideas as to what this noise could be? Clicks when setting off and coming to a stop, sometimes clunks.

Had it since my front suspension was replaced? Wishbones, control arms, tie rod ends, shocks top mounts replaced.



They said they had to adjust the front subframe so maybe the bolts?

Thanks

Get it seen to by a vw specialist  Does sound like subframe knocking  All the bolts will need to be replaced and torqued properly
  There are aftermarket kits which will fix it if installed properly :happy2:

Yeah if it's not crunchy dried out inner CV joints, it will be subframe movement.
