Hi, has anyone done this on a 1.6TDI CR Engine? The setup from my fuel filter appears to be a little different! Thanks.

Today I disconnected the front left abs sensor, went for a little drive, even though fault in abs on dashboard, speedo and cruise still worked?? Then removed and cleaned both front abs speed sensors, went for a drive and still same issue with cruise pulsing. Rears abs sensors look a lot more...

Hi, Thanks for this. I was wondering why both front wheel sensors might vary by 1kph... I could understand the front left only doing it and this leading to the cruise going haywire as a result. But nonetheless the change if abs sensors or hub is definitely worth it to see if it makes any...

Hi again, I have managed to put the VCDS log of the abs sensors into a chart, located HERE. As can be seen, the front two vary by about 1kph quite regularly. I am wondering whether anyone else has done a log of their ABS Sensors and whether such a differential on the front sensors is...

Hi, went for a drive measuring abs speed output on all 4 wheels via VCDS. Whilst at a steady straight ahead speed, the 2 front sensors varied by +/- 1km/h (would change every 2 seconds or so) whilst the back stayed at the set speed. Perhaps this is pretty normal, or could it be enough to...

Hi, thanks for this idea. I did have the front right coil spring changed about 2 months ago and can't remember it doing that beforehand. I will check some 'on the road' readings from the abs sensors and report an update, but I thought that any anomalies might have thrown a fault code which...

Hi there, Thanks for this. I did think that but can't see a leak and understand that the Golf MK6 cruise does not operate from the vacuum. If I am wrong though, please correct me and I will revisit the engine bay ;)

ok, slight update this pulsing/fluctuating is noticeable at 70mph too. The rpm going up or down during this 'blip' is negligible on the display but I feel the surge and drop through the seat, perhaps once every 2 seconds or so. I have been looking at the vacuum pipes and they seem fine with no...

Hi there, I know this thread is pretty old, but I have the same issue with my Golf 1.6TDI CR Bluemotion 2011 model with 97K miles. Did anyone get to the bottom of it and whether there was any adjustment that could be made by VCDS to dampen it somewhat? Between 40-50mph, my cruise control...

Hi, Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately accelerating past the cruise set speed and allowing it to settle back has no effect on the issue, it returns. Measured accelerator position in advanced measuring blocks and it looks fine. What is strange is that this issue only happens below 50mph (up...

Hi all, I have a strange issue that has recently developed on my 2011 Golf MK6 1.6 TDI. If I set the cruise control at a speed between 40-50mph (around 2000rpm), the car seems to surge every couple of seconds, like blipping the throttle to the desired speed, backing off by less than 1mph then...

I took the pedal off myself in the end, put some felt on the clip, fitted it back in, noise gone. It was simply a tolerance fit issue that manifested itself with a very annoying noise. The scary thing was taking all the bits off to get to the pedal bolt but I tried it in the end and it wasn't...

OK the click noise is becoming more pronounced now since I sprayed the grease a few weeks ago. Thinking of replacing the clip, but would need to remove the clutch pedal first. Has anyone removed the clutch pedal, if so would appreciate a guide and whether it's difficult to do? Thanks...

Update: I sprayed a load of grease on the overspring, didn't make any difference...still clicked when pedal depressed. So then I sprayed a load towards where the master cylinder pushrod clip meets the pedal. Clicking only happening right at top of travel now which is a lot more bearable. Upon...

Thanks for this. I think it will be quite difficult to get the spring off without removing a few things first on my car. Looks like I need to take off some air conditioning ducting to get to any nut! Going to try another grease, last time it stopped it for a month, perhaps I just need to find...

Ah no probs. I could take it apart but I think I will create more problems for myself. Does taking the pedal assembly apart require bleeding the master cylinder ? I am hoping it's just a click and that's it, just don't want it snapping on me!

As an update I sprayed lithium grease on the pedal assembly. It stopped the click temporarily. The dealer suggested they strip it down but the charge was too high for what is essentially a click. I think it's the overspring and will just spray some more grease down there if it becomes an...

I am of the same belief as the poster above in my case also. No unusual noise in the engine bay on clutch press and release. Definitely the pedal. The more I look into it, I am now leaning to the white clip on the master cylinder rod or over-centre spring. Got it booked into VW tomorrow for...

I hope so ha ha I am thinking it may be the white plastic clip on the end of the rod. If only I could see it...

Hi, Did you find the reason why your pedal is doing this. Mine does exactly the same thing (Golf MK6 2010 1.6 TDI) and its definitely from the pedal area and not engine bay. Does it in neutral or any gear and its getting quite irritating. Took it to the dealer and they said its operating...
