Transmission is making this awful grinding noise and when it makes the noise the vehicle has little power to accelerate. The dealership said this was normal. Ive never had a car make such an awful noise from the transmission causing it to lose power. This has been happening since 2000 miles it never did that prior to the 2k mile mark. The car has 6800 miles on it and it does this everytime I drive now.
I have a 2019 Volkswagen Jetta gli 35th anniversary edition 2. 0t tsi w/ 6 speed manual transmission. (only 3500 manufactured in the world) 1. I have a very loud clicking/tapping noise when at idle and lower rpms. Vehicle had about 9,000 miles on the odometer when noise started. I have multiple videos and sounds recordings of the vehicle having this noise. I took the vehicle in for diagnosis. I showed the service advisor the videos and he said "it does not sound normal at all, in fact it sounds like internal damage/defect". The tech had taken it into the shop and came back and said it sounded 100% normal. I am now at 12,000 miles and did my oil change at the 10,000 mile mark. Noise is still there. I am afraid if the noise keeps going on and it is causing internal damage my car will be destroyed. The vehicle has stalled out on me 1 time at a traffic light since I bought it in December of 2019. (clutch was depressed and car was in neutral) I am currently going back to have them look at it and to get a trim piece replaced under warranty due to fault.
I bought my new 2019 Jetta 2 days ago. It had only 111 miles on it. The day after I purchased it, I began to notice a grinding noise coming from the transmission between 15 to 30 mph. It sounds like gears grinding on a manual transmission when the clutch isn't fully engaged. I also noticed the rpm's jumping up erratically when I'm hearing the noise. I contacted east coast volkwsgon, the dealership where I purchased it. The service department representative I spoke with was familiar with the complaint. I am taking it in tomorrow morning to have it checked. I am very concerned about a new car already having transmission issues. The representative's response prompted me to research this issue and I see that this problem appears to be common for this model.
The transmission makes a horrible noise from 25mph to upwards of 60mph. The dealer has not road tested, but immediately handed me a tech tip from vw corporate that says this is normal operation. Taking it in again for another warranty repair this weekend, but this does not act like or sound lime normal automatic transmission function.
On 9/6/2019 I bought 2019 vw Jetta 1. 4 t r-line tsi 16 valve dohc turbo 4 cylinder w/direct fuel injection. Had it back to the dealership the first week complaining about the grinding and growling noises under 40 mph range while driving in city traffic. I was told by another dealership it is normal for 8 speed transmissions. Also said the only way stop the noise is to drive it in sport mod , not good with gas consuption but you won't hear it. While making a u turn and coming out of a drive way into city traffic, it has unpredictable acceleration which really shocked me. I left rubber and the wheels made a loud sound on the pavement. It larched twice and I do not trust this car.
2019 Volkswagen Jetta. Consumer writes in regards to grinding noise while changing gears. The consumer stated the vehicle was taking to the dealer who was advised that the vehicle was operating as designed. The consumer got a second opinion, who advised there may be a transmission issue.
While accelerating, a distinct grinding noise comes from the transmission. The noise is consistently heard while the vehicle is accelerating between 25-30 mph. My vehicle has 8k miles, so this noise is very concerning. This shouldn't be happening in a new car with such low miles! vw knows about this issue and is doing nothing - meanwhile the car is being impacted every time it is driven - and it's making the problem worsen. Please start an investigation into this -- it's not right as consumers, our well-being and safety are being taken advantage of and you are getting more complaints every day on this issue. And vw knows about it and is doing nothing to fix the 2019 Jettas that have been sold/bought already. Shameful on both vw and NHTSA for not looking into it.
Whenever I accelerate, especially at a normal or light rate, I hear a grinding noise. It usually happens anywhere from 25-40 mph and doesn't matter if the engine is cold or warm. It has happened ever since I got the car and I have taken it to the dealership twice to get it checked out. When I took it there I was told that it was the abs system kicking in. The second time I took it there I was told that it is a �normal sound that all Jetta's make�. I don't think a new vehicle should be making any sort of grinding noise. It sounds like it is coming from the transmission or drivetrain and that's what concerns me.
While accelerating, a distinct grinding noise comes from the transmission. The noise is consistently heard while the vehicle is accelerating between 25-30 mph. My vehicle is roughly 5 months off the lot and has less than 10k miles, so this noise is very concerning. Third party mechanics have confirmed the noise is a hazard for the transmission, and have advised to bring the vehicle to Volkswagen for a warranty repair. Both the Volkswagen dealership and Volkswagen customer service have notified me the grinding noise is normal and of no concern. However, a software patch is available to "fix" the "non-issue". Volkswagen customer service also notified me the patch does not completely fix the grinding noise. When I pressed further, customer service notified me there are no other options and "there is nothing we can do at this time to fix it. " the dealership also confirmed the noise is present in other 2019 Jettas on their lot, which is why they said the noise is normal for my vehicle. It sounds like vw has a transmission issue with all 2019 Jettas, and they do not know how and/or refuse to fix it.
When accelerating a grinding noise can be heard coming from the transmission between 25 mph & 35 mph the car feels irresponsive. There is an update that fixes the issue but it's only being applied to �unsold� units.
8 speed automatic transmission has a metallic grinding or scraping noise when operating at low rpm's during acceleration. Specifically after the transition to 5th gear. The powertrain noticeably hesitates during acceleration when this aforementioned sound is active. It's only a matter of time before this transmission fails and leaves me in the middle of a busy intersection. It's an extremely common issue on the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta that the manufacturer refuses to acknowledge as an actual problem. They claim the scraping and grinding sound is a �normal characteristic� of the car, which is totally nonsensical.
The car produces a noticeable grinding noise whenever I am accelerating in both eco and normal modes. There is a grinding feeling in the pedal when the grinding noise occurs. It makes the vehicle feel unsafe. Volkswagen refuses to acknowledge the problem. I feel as though the transmission may give out at any time.
1. First issue is the car running low on oil before it reaches the 10k mile mark. This car should be getting an oil change every 10k miles however it will run out of oil before the 10k mark is achieved. 2. There is a grinding noise at about 30mph that seems to be associated with the gear change. Therefore, I believe this particular issue is transmission related. This particular issue has been happening since the car was first purchased.
There is is grinding/rattling noise from the transmission around 30 mph. Volkswagen dealership has said it was normal operation but it does not seem normal or safe.
All issues written here have been happening since day of purchase, as of June 2018. Vw currently denies issues and claims reports are of normal operation of vehicle. I love this car I just want vw to provide a fix. Vehicle has a continuous grinding noise coming from behind engine area when vehicle is in motion accelerating from 27- 30mph after that it subsides. Sounds of grinding depends what drive mode your are in. Eco has the loudest noise. Many other reports suspect transmission problems. Vehicle while stationary has a strange noise coming from the front left engine area that sounds like a rotation humming grind noise, usually occurs after vehicle was in motion and then stopping at a red light. Vehicle while in motion blind spot monitor on driver side mirror lights up during bad weather even when no vehicle is present in blind spot. Also, can happen when there is no bad weather. Vehicle while in reverse during rain if equiped with drive assist will automatically break stop for you while no vehicle is present. Winsheild wiper blades leave streaking marks into windshield that doesnt go away. Paint also easily chips when pebbles from highways hits the hood of the car. I have taken the vehicle to vw north hills 1cochran pittsburgh PA they stated they do not know about the grinding noise, and it was most likely the turbo charge engine. They also investigated the blind spot monitor stating sensor is dirty just needs cleaned. That's also false becuase after vw north hills 1cochran cleaned it on a clear sunny day as I left the dealership the blind spot monitor came on intermittently. This vehicle at time of report has 23000 miles on it has it drives a lot of highway. Risk of vehicle accident while accelerating usually between 30-80mph with known issues are high. Please investigate.
