Consumer Description
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. *TR
