Stange Sound

[Waffle]

Hey guys, I have a sound coming from my car when I am driving and let off the throttle. It sounds kind of like putting a metal BB inside of a coke can and twirling it so it spins around inside. I can only hear it at slow speeds like when I am driving in a parking lot. It happens every time about a second after I let off the throttle, when the transmission starts engine braking.

The car has 60,000 miles and DSG transmission. My Forge diverter valve has been sticking, so I am going to lube it up. I am APR Stage 2 with Intercooler. I will post video if needed.

I am having the same problem on my 06 Jetta 2.5. It has 99,8XX miles on it. It bugs the hell out of me, and I can't figure it out. One time I smacked the dash board, and accidentally hit the hazard lights button, and it fell into the dash. LMAO.

Sorry I can't give any real input on this, but I too am looking for some answers

Lol I have smacked my dashboard many times for all the stupid noises.

Possibly, I will jack my car up and check. It happens no matter what the RPM and the sound is exactly the same every time, no change in pitch or how long the noise occurs for.

I will post a video tomorrow, after I ask my dealer if they know what it is.
