VW Golf 2.0 TSI Ticking Under Load — Injector
A loud ticking sound from Golf 2.0 TSI under acceleration is typically high pressure fuel injector mechanical noise — this is normal for direct injection operation. Genuine bearing knock is deeper and more resonant. If accompanied by rough running or misfire codes, suspect injector failure rather than noise.
