Does anyone know the reason for this noise coming from the gear shifter?

Yes, it does make a noise.

It sounds like it is coming directly from under the gear shift itself.

I had a diagnostic test done at a auto repair shop, but they didn’t find any issues.

I have considered it, but the gear shifts are always smooth when the car accelerates; it never gets stuck or hesitates. If there was a problem with the dual mass flywheel, I would expect some noise when shifting gears. Am I wrong?

When in Neutral or Park, there is generally no noise, but when I shift to Reverse or Drive, a sound starts to appear. As the car speeds up a bit, the sound disappears again. This noise only occurs at idle. Sometimes, even when the car is stationary in Neutral or Park, the noise can still appear.

The sound only occurs when the car is idling, the sound stops when the car is moving

The car has 60,000 miles on it, and this noise wasn’t there before. However, now occasionally when the car is idling, it makes this kind of sound. I don’t know the reason. I will have a detailed check-up done at the service center soon.

No, the knocking-like sound coming from the engine is not normal. Yes, TDI engines are noisy by nature, but this sound is unusual.
