annoying rattle

[villain24]

anyone noticed a rattle that comes from what seems the passenger seat or the passenger seatbelt. It can be quite annoying when moving on. When cruising, doesn't seem to do it as much. I think maybe it could be the passenger seat pull lever to get to the back. Any thoughts??

Ive had rattles like this one and i found that it depends on the seat position! try moving the seat forward/backwards a few clicks on its runners and the noise should stop (it did for me)! the other rattle i have comes from the seat belt clip knocking against the pillar trim (solved by having a passenger )

thnks

Rawsh, il try that on my trip to Worcester tonite. Ive got the money 4 a remap now, but am dubious about it regarding brakes and suspension. Meaning i think all those things need upgrading so i might wait a year and get a Cupra Tdi!!

it will be the seatbelt ratling against the b pillar plastic trim on the cupra you can wrap the seatbelt around the egde of the seat to stop that id save your money and get the cupra but i would say that

 

[villain24]

yeah

rash i tend to agree. How much do u reckon i could get a cupra tdi for with about 40k??

 

[rashcupra]

ive never looked into it but they are slightly more pricey than the petrols but you obviously save money as the juice as a petrol guzzles!!!! probably get 1 in good nick with 40k private for about 9-10k and trade about 10k +

That noise could be coming from the electric widow motor mechanism....had that problem before and is still there. Going to get some expanding foam to spray in between...May be it will work!

fr and cupra and sport all have the same seats mate just different fabric covering them got to be the lamest reason for buying a cupra ever rash
