Hi All,

I’ve written about this before but its just so annoying and I’m getting now where. Car is soon to be four. Dealer do what they can (search for TSB I guess) but otherwise nothing.

Symptom – The 2020 Golf GTi 7.5 jerks/jots when in ‘D’ egressing from a parked position. Isn’t reliably repeatable. Jolt/Jerk strength can be subtle or rattle the keys in the console.

Here’s the observations (so far)
• Car is stopped/parked. Engine off
• Car is started, drive selected and forward motion
• Occurs between 1-3 kph
• Incline or flat. Never noticed when parked on a decline.
• Occurs when steering straight or turned. Partial or full turn again no real difference.
• Can occur parked overnight, or 5 minutes (ie ducking into shops)
• Can occur cold/hot
• Can occur Winter or summer
• Zero rain ie pads are not rusted to rotors
• Has not occurred if reverse is selected first (and movement rearward) and then drive that I can remember.
• Never occurs once the car is started and has moved. i.e doesn’t happen again until stopped and parked for between 5 min and 5 days.
• Jolt/jerk can be subtle or violet. Always two jolt/jerks within a tenth of a second of each other.
• Has occurred since new.
• Can be driver only or fully loaded. No difference.

Has any experienced anything like this? - is there are wider audience worth posting this to?

Many thanks for any/all input.
