[OkGo]

Is there meant to be a pin in here ?

yes a pin that has a habit of self ejecting. I have leccy taped and zip-tied it.

This is my solution. A piece of new bicycle inner tube for €1.99. It feels good and looks like original, doesn't stick like electrical tape or scratch like a cable tie, and can be removed at any time.

Time to call the dealers and see what it takes to get a replacement pin here

And to fix the leaks while they are at it. Very frustrating

For what it's worth, my back door leaks. Both rear quarter windows leak too.

Here is another thing, I have heard this noise in the past but don't remember it being this loud. Short video, let me know what you think of it - may need to replay it a few times. It's me setting off and then letting go of the accelerator, there is almost like a blown turbo sound that follows. There are three sounds you will hear, me setting off - accelerator increase, the concerning sound - it's decreasing, low frequency, and then the third scratching sound of something lose in the cab. Ignore the last one.

( Yes, I colour match my jacket to the car, don't you ?)

Isn’t that the turbo ? Sounds similar to mine when I decelerate.

Thats what i thought, but its gotten a lot louder (!?) either that or stretching all over the center console has cleared out my ears a bit.

Sounds like just a bit of turbo lag
