badayuni83 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I purchased a b8 2.0 tdi manual from what Ithought was a reputable dealer. I have had the car a few months and I am slowly starting to notice certain things that don't seem right. I would be so grateful if anyone could tell me what my problems areThe car is 1 owner from new with 62k miles full Audi service history 2.0 tdi manual 2010 yearProblem 1If the car is stationary and in neutral if i push the clutch in and release it slowly as if I am in gear setting off the rev counter moves as if it thinks I need the biting point but I am in neutral. If I release the clutch the rev return to normal but there is a delayI also noticed that sometimes the clutch squeaks when being pressed. Not sure of this is anything to do with the problem.Problem 2When the engine is underload high gear low speed I can hear an awful rattle sounds like the exhaust. Nothing is loose I have been told that the baffles inside the backbox have collapsed is this a possibility or a more serious problem?Problem 3When i accelerate sharply I can hear a whistling noise from the engine only occurs under sharp acceleration in high revsProblem 4Occasionally the idle speed is 1000 rpm then after sometime returns to normal. Not sure is this is related to the clutch issues I mentionedProblem 5Terrible fuel economy. Getting 26mpg around town Can someone tell me what diagnosis there is and how to solve these issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Welcome to the forum Moin, sorry to hear your having issues with your Audi. Youll find the members on here are a friendly bunch and will help you where they can :) i cant help with all problems I'm afraid but problem 3, the whistle at high revs could be the turbo. There could be a gasket loose or pipes leaking. Worst case scenario if it is turbo related is a new turbo maybe required. Sorry I can't help more.

Steve Q Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Hmm, I'm unsure to be honest. Hopefully some of the more experienced members will be able to advise. Without sounding stupid what issue was highlighted in the first video? Cheers steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
