Was suspecting maybe the pistons that hold the boot , removed them but didn't make difference

Also , stood behind the car and started pushing it down and up from the rear bumper and was silent

Shocks

[omri617 18]

the way i did , bumping the car down and up , isn't the way to check shocks?

That will check them on smooth progressive pressure but not a sharp shock like bump

Have you check the spare wheel cage isnt loose?I had exactly the same squeek,removed the spare wheel and cage,took it for a drive up the road and it was nice and quiet

I don't have any .. no spare and no cage.

Wish I could hook myself to back of the car and listen to it while going

I once did that in my 605 convinced it wasn't the plastic rear droplinks but it was lol

 

Could be a loose exhaust join or mount???

Shook the exhaust up and down & let and right extremely and it's silent as hell

Could be the boot hinges ?

I once had a similar sound. It was the rear hatch lock /catch inside the car There was too much movement in the contact parts.

thanks

I have a similar noise with mine, certain it's the boot. Clayts I might have to try out your idea!

[omri617 18]

I will even connect the boot and drive in my park yard to check!

Hello GTI experts & lovers .

A quick question :

I went to a garage today and asked them about the whistle sound when going over bumps from back of the car.

They said that it's the rear beam .

My question is : Which kit I need to get (1.9 ) year 1992 , from EBAY to fix the problem ?

this maybe? :

Or this SNR (heard it's a good brand)

Thanks

That second seller has a lot of bad feedback.

 

As for your rear beam if its making a noise id replace the lot as its more than likely killed its shafts too.

 

This kit is a bargain you will need 2 though for both sides

[omri617 18]

Update , I purchased the kit from the Polish seller , item arrived safe and fast . Replaced the whole set which is the bearings kit and the shafts .The old shafts looked tired and worn out.

Re-greased of course but... THE WHISTLE SOUND DIDN'T GO ! ! ! !

Very frustrating!

Shock absorbers are probably pushing more air around than fluid these days

That drove me nuts !

[omri617 18]

Slo thanks . Please watch the video and tell me what you think .

[Slo 283 1 Cars]

what a weird sound, I think something is loose, have you checked all your heat shields above the exhaust?

[omri617 18]

No not yet , but I grabbed the exhaust and just shook it all over and nothing sounded like that.
