    is it the 140 bhp tsi with a supercharger? If so this is normal. The click is the supercharger disengaging

    The 1.4 TSi in the Passat was only sold with 122bhp which had a turbo only, no supercharger.

    OP, cannot help you with your problem but suggest having a mechanic check it out, small problems can manifest themselves into larger more expensive ones if not addressed in time.

    Not Your Ornery Onager


    Any chance you're lugging the engine? Putting the foot down at 1500RPM in high gear... the noise you are hearing might just be your big end or main bearings getting hammered! :eek:
