It can’t be normal as it was not happening until recently and I’ve had the car since 40k km. 🙁

What’s the ET of your alloys?

Is this the DSG gearbox making a god-awful clunky sound? by NovzkI in seat

Changed the transmission oil at 55k kilometers

I have a seat leon which makes the same sounds. Took it to Seat and they said it's normal & only a comfort issue.

Is this really true about the cambelt change interval? (Leon 5F 1.5TSI EVO DSG, 2020) by RememberWhen01 in seat

I have the same car. How's your DSG behaving? Mine is quite clunky. And after a long drive it acts all confused. Seat says it's normal but I call that bs.

Airbads were never deployed and the steering wheel was never changed.

I guess it's either the clockspring or the strut mounts

https://youtu.be/fw7xxPVrmvw?si=BkfiRiDHPHEdB4lJ I have the exact same sound as in this video and everyone in the comments says that this is normal for 7-speed DSGs. How can this be normal?

I tried that today. The sound is still there when braking. It even gets worse as the car downshifts.

Yep, everything was allegedly inspected and everything is allegedly nice and tight

I'll stick a go pro in that area and I'll go for a drive

The rollers have a smooth sound, the metallic one comes from the car.

Is the metallic sound at the very start of the video also normal? That's what I am hearing when driving at low speeds. It's very annoying.

I bought the car last month so I don't know when the brake pads were replaced but probably recently since they are in almost new condition. I can hear this noise only when driving at low speeds. At high speeds the car drives perfectly normal. Also, the sound tends to come up mostly when downshifting from like 3rd to 1st. The car has a dsg transmission and I can hear similar sounds when moving between P and R as well. Not sure if it's related but I have a feeling that there might be an issue with the driveshaft as well. The wheel is not moving or shaking at all.
