skynet600 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) Hello all, I’ve had this issue for some time now. It’s a right hand drive 2019 A5 and I get a rather disconcerting sloshing noise over my right shoulder when accelerating or braking. Of course with the petrol cap on the right side that was my immediate thought but I find it hard to believe that would slip through the design and quality checks. I have given the doors a good shake, nothing there. I see no liquid leakages of any note. The volume does vary over time but this could be weather or fuel tank level. Anyone else suffer this? Thanks.

jdragon Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I've read a few posts where people have reported this and the issue was water in the sills, which has got through the bungs in the floor panel underneath the car. Might be worth checking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
