Coming from the exhaust or engine. I'm sure you know about the oil sludge problems the 1.8's have. 2.0 sohc cats go bad all the time and rattle under load but you can't hear it at idle.

For the fuse blowing, I would check all the bulbs (front and rear) and make sure they are the right bulbs (and the circuit boards are ok), I believe all the lights on the left have have 1 fuse and all the lights on the right have 1 fuse.


Also to the op, unless he's tuned you got him. The early 08's came with the FSI motor and later changed to the TSI, a little different and rated at the same power. To me the TSI motor feels a little more responsive.

ChargedUp, to me he just sounds like the average teenager who thinks their car is the best thing around, I say you race him before he adds anything else and shove as many car lengths down his throat that you can
