Hi guys, just wondering if anyone could shed some light on this issue I have on my Audi rs3, when the car is in either P or N I’ve got a rattle around the gearbox area I went to Audi specialist a month ago and was diagnosed as the flywheel I’ve had the flywheel replaced and I still have the same noise. The company that did it said could be a faulty part so they fitted me another one free of charge and guess what exactly the same noise they was as confused as I was as they said the noise is coming from that area. It drives bang on but if I’ve had a new flywheel why am I still getting this noise is it normal thing with these rs3 and I didn’t need the flywheel replacing ?

Gearbox area or engine side closest to gearbox ?

They rule out chains ?

Well when it was up on the ramp he had the scope on it and the noise was coming from where the flywheel was rotating but I did mention chain but he said it doesn’t sound like a chain rattle I’ve just uploaded video to YouTube here is the link
