tt sounds like diesel at stoplight
my 03tt is progressively sounding like a diesel while I am in neutral at a stoplight. the problem goes away if I push in the clutch. The dealer said this was the timing belt and it is normal for the turbo. Is it really normal, and should it be getting louder. I hate sounding like a diesel turbo at a stoplight. Should I have the timing belt tightened, any suggestions?

Do you still have good boost and power? Because a small leak in say an aftermarket header can sound bad at idle, but this usually gets louder upon acceleration and you didn't say anything about that. Just a thought.

For crying out loud, James. You sound paranoid. Below is a quote from PhD
"Some noise is normal. You are hearing the intermediate shaft driving the chains. They have always made noise, it just wasn't as noticeable with the louder motors. Now that they are quieter they are more pronounced. If you think that is bad you should try a different clutch. Mine sounds like a freight train when sitting idle"
It's only the timing chains. Cheesh.
