My sister's Mk5 2.0 SDI has a confusing problem.
As soon as you get to 70mph or above, there's an intermittent but regular hum. (From the front, I think.) Doesn't sound like anything I've heard before. It's not clunk or a rattle; it doesn't stop when steering left or right; all the wheels have been balanced; Garage have said they can't find anything wrong with the wheels or suspension, but they haven't been able to drive it above 50mph.
If you can imagine, it sounds a bit like driving through 50yds of very shallow surface water every 100yds or so. fffFFFFffff... fffFFFFffff... fffFFFFffff...
Doesn't seem to be affecting drag, but it's still very disconcerting. Any ideas???
