Hello all,
I've got a 1.8T with the standard "sports" suspension. 71k miles.
Problem is: over small potholes, I often get a short, sharp scraping noise, which I am guessing is coming from suspension. Over smooth speed bumps, I just hear a nice "psshh-psssh" noise from the suspension like I would expect, but on the sudden holes, for example over sunken drain covers, etc, where there might be a sharp drop of a couple of inches, I get this scrape sound.
Anyone else had this? It's not like the creaking/groaning noise from old bushes - I had the bushes on the front anti-roll bar done at last service and that sound is very different anyway.
It sounds kind of like nails on a blackboard, but it only lasts a fraction of a second, as the wheels drop into the hole.
Thanks,
B
