Vibration is felt in the cabin when in park and is much greater when put in
drive. I googled it and not everyone is having the same symptoms as mine. I get a squeaky sound when you cold start the car that goes away after a little while but some does remain. Also the heads up display flickers/dimmed until the car is on till 20 mins or more then goes back to full light/normal. Are these all related? I have a feeling my car is due for timing belt service. Has 90k on it.

Thoughts anyone?

 

Don't know about the other stuff, but the timing belt doesn't need to be changed until 110,000 or 115,000 miles. The new belt and tooth designed lengthened the life of the belt over the 1.8t.

 

Thanks for the reply B7Night, I posted a video about the noise I'm talking about maybe that would give you a better idea of what the problem is?

 

That definitely doesn't sound 'right'.... I'm wondering if something is wrong with your alternator - might explain the squeaking and the dimming of the HUD.

 

I would second the alt as well. Mine doesn't sound like that.
