But also, like previously suggested, make sure you dont have anything loose in the storage compartments (glove box, center console, storage area next to push button, bottle holders in the doors). Could also be the buttons on the seat belt guides if you dont fasten them (the little loops on the shoulder area of the seats)
That's good advice, thank you! I'm used to the 2.0T from my old GTI haha.
