You have a clattering noise on the back of your 1997gl vw golf no one seems to know what the problem is can you help It comes for the rear left passenger side and only happens when you go over road hu?

Answer 1

I had the same problem and at first it was the heat sheild/took some twist ties and pinned it back up. After a while I checked with the VW dealer for the pins...not that expensive. Now we have bad wheel bearings in the back side which causes a clunking noise when going around corners...looks like it will be a little more expensive. Good luck I had the same problem, open the hatch and there might be 5 or 6 wrenches in your trunk, now remove or secure them, and it should go away
