Why are VW's rated so low in reliability by consumer reports?


Some of the Chrysler V-6 motors (3.0, 3.3 and 3.8, probably the 2.7 and 3.5, too) have a single serpentine belt that runs most of the pulley driven accessories. there is a single pulley on an arm - called the tensioner. It provides the tension to the belt to keep it tight. The bearings in this pulley can get a bit "loose" and cause some chattering. you hear it when at idle. it's nothing to worry about... just a noise... you can have the tensioner replaced - but it will start making noise again - sometimes in a few months - sometimes in a few years.

If you have an automatic it could be a loose fitting on the transmission. A standard clutch often gets loose. Both sounds go away once in gear. Also you may have a slightly loose timing belt which would stop making noise once you start moving.
What you need to do is put your car in park, put on the emergency brake and get out to listen where the noise is coming from (with your hood up).
Lots of pieces get loose and it may not be so bad.
